Here's one from my old job:

This Saturday,January 22,8:00 AM, a Cleaning Service will be cleaning our carpets. This cleaning will ONLY be in the hallways and common areas. You are not required to move/do anything in your area.

This was actually for our Austin office (I am 200 miles away in Dallas), but I took the advice and did nothing anyway.
