Read Uber CEOs Sex Guidelines Email To Employees Before Miami Party

Uber CEO Travis Kalanick decided to share some sage advice with his employees before a celebration in Miami… about having sex. Kalanick outlined some rules for the party including a few about inter-office sex, keg-throwing and “puke charges,” Recode reported Thursday.

The email was sent Oct. 25, 2013, prior to a company gathering in Miami to celebrate the company’s introduction in a 50^th city.

“I have gotten a list of concerns from the legal department,” Kalanick began the email. “I have translated these concerns into a clear set of common sense guidelines. I’ve also added a few items of my own.”

He went on to discuss some “don’ts” for the party.

“We do not have a budget to bail anyone out of jail. Don’t be that guy,” he wrote. “Do not throw large kegs off of tall buildings. Please talk to Ryan McKillen and Amos Barreto for specific insights on this topic.”

And in perhaps the sauciest portion of the email, Kalanick bestowed some words of wisdom about sexual relations.

“Do not have sex with another employee UNLESS a) you have asked that person for that privilege and they have responded with an emphatic, ‘YES! I will have sex with you,’” he wrote. “AND b) the two (or more) of you do not work in the same chain of command. Yes, that means that Travis will be celibate on this trip. #CEOLife #FML.”

In other portions of the email, he advised the employees to “have a great f***ing time” and added that “Miami’s transportation sucks a**.”

The emails release comes during troubling days for the ride-sharing company. Earlier this week, Uber fired more than 20 people after an investigation into workplace culture revealed harassment allegations. Earlier in the year, former Uber engineer Susan Fowler wrote a blog post in which she detailed alleged sexual harassment and mismanagement by human resources and other senior officials.

Subject: 九 Info: URGENT, URGENT - READ THIS NOW OR ELSE!!!!!

To: Uber Team

Hey guys, I wanted to get some important information out there. I've put together a Q&A that we can use when other folks ask what we're doing here, and have some DOs and DON'Ts for our time here in Miami.

You better read this or I'll kick your ass.

__________________________________________

Q&A - If I've missed anything, or you just have a random question, please reply to all on this thread!

Q: What is Uber doing here?

A: Uber has recently rolled out to its 50th global city. We are celebrating this company milestone and others and have organized a local grassroots movement to help bring Uber to Miami. #MiamiNeedsUber

Q: What does the Chinese symbol 九 stand for?

A: 九 translates to the number 9. It is a symbol that has internal meaning at Uber but is something we do not discuss externally.

Q: Is this an Internet bubble boondoggle?

A: It's a celebration of a major milestone for the company, as well as a chance for us to hold a company-wide retreat and organize our efforts globally. It's the one time that everyone in the company can meet in person all the people we work with every day.

I have gotten a list of concerns from the legal department. I have translated these concerns into a clear set of common sense guidelines. I've also added a few items of my own.

DON'Ts:

1) No lives should begin or end at 九

2) We do not have a budget to bail anyone out of jail. Don't be that guy. #CLM

3) Do not throw large kegs off of tall buildings. Please talk to Ryan McKillen and Amos Barreto for specific insights on this topic.

4) Do not have sex with another employee UNLESS a) you have asked that person for that privilege and they have responded with an emphatic "YES! I will have sex with you" AND b) the two (or more) of you do not work in the same chain of command. Yes, that means that Travis will be celibate on this trip. #CEOLife #FML

5) Drugs and narcotics will not be tolerated unless you have the appropriate medicinal licensing.

6) There will be a $200 puke charge for any public displays on the Shore Club premises. Shore Club will be required to send pictures as proof.

7) DO NOT TALK TO PRESS. Send all press inquiries to Andrew - anoyes@uber.com Additionally, stay vigilant about making sure people don't infiltrate our event. If and when you find yourself talking to a non-Uber (look for the wristband), keep confidential stuff confidential... no rev figures, driver figures, trip figures... don't talk about internal process, and don't talk about initiatives that have not already launched.

___________

DOs:

1) Have a great fucking time. This is a celebration! We've all earned it.

2) Share good music. Digital DJs are encouraged to share their beats poolside.

3) Go out of your way to meet as many of your fellow uberettos as you can.

4) If you haven't figured it out yet, Miami's transportation sucks ass. #Slang as many Miamians, drivers, influencers as you can as passionately as you can and let them know why Uber will make this great city an even better place. Every slang matters. #MiamiNeedsUber…

5) If someone asks to meet the CEO and Founder of Uber, kindly introduce him to Max Crowley.
