> How do I get people to read my announcements?

Suggestions:

* Make them mandatory reading on pain of firing.

* Include a truly funny joke in each message.

* Include a special random number in each message -- each copy of the message -- that the recipient must be able to recite in order to get paid.

-- or, best of all --

* Think of a way to make it in their genuine interest to read the messages.

Thanks for the suggestion, essentially put it in front of something they really want/need. They need to go past the announcement to get it.
