Here’s the transcription from the video:
Ladies and gentlemen, this is our usual Friday afternoon staff meeting, and I know you are all tired and want to get home, but I feel I need to talk to you about some blunders here in the office this week.

I would like to first start with the fact that you are never clever if you are caught. That brings me to one truth: Do not do it. You will be safer that way. It is not a matter of pride, no. It is a matter of not lowering your guard.

You must defer to your conscience. You must not suffer the fate of one who will never be hired again due to poor choices. I am not a loafer. I will catch you. Never question that.
