“it reminds me of *my* manager a decade ago, VP at a Very Big Very Blue company, who had his secretary fax his incoming email after him to whichever hotel he stayed at, then he scribbled his response on the fax, had the hotel fax it back to his secretary who finally typed it back in email and responded using her boss’s account”

Tragic as it sounds I know people today who still work like this – faxing things to PA’s to email, writing notes for someone else to email, asking PA’s to enter things onto calenders.

Let’s end this now – we live in the 21st century – if you’re in business or in management you have no option but to get connected and learn to use the tools!
