Y'all, I kid you not...one of my bosses just gave me a printed document to reformat and send out. He typed it from his notes but didn't save it. He typed it, printed it and gave it to me to retype and email. I asked if he'd prefer to have his computer replaced with a typewriter but he didn't think it was very funny. He said that he never saves anything.

Whiskey tango foxtrot, repeat, whiskey tango foxtrot.

Seems about par for the course. Did he lose his pencil?

[charlottezweb.livejournal.com]

Heh. Nice.

*sigh* I know these types. They copy themselves on e-mails and have their secretaries print them out to read them. I hate people who refuse to use technology.

I am dumbfounded. I am gobsmacked. I am speechless.

We have one or two at the current employer, but they do their best to not be complete twits.

Have you asked for a scanner and OCR software yet?

Oh - and do a cost/benefit analysis of how he's using your time?

No kidding. I wonder if the other bosses know how "productive" this guy is.

[charlottezweb.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes. They're all about that bad. I'm surprised they don't still use slide rules.

Yeah, I do pretty much nothing here, so any work is better than nothing. But I can't help but *boggle* when they do something so counter-intuitive.

Well. What a perfect opportunity to make their office more efficient by introducing some better working methods. With juicy incentives to use them.

I should learn to log in. :P

Um. At least you have something to do? Oh! And you don't have to read his handwriting!
