Some time ago someone commented here on HN about monitoring systems for employee communications that would scan all messages and notify the bosses whenever messages containing certain keywords were sent. Words like "champagne" or "congratulations" were immediately brought to their attention. This was coupled with company policy that attempting to evade this total surveillance system was grounds for being fired.

Off-topic, but that paints a sad picture where the boss thinks that any reason to celebrate is a threat to be squashed.
The boss just doesn't want to miss out on any parties.
