Engines under repair; presently traveling under impulse power

Or at least, that’s what it feels like. Getting geared up for the new Star Trek movie; it’s my Obi Wan of movies–my only hope. Work? What? Oh, yeah. Work is fine. Today someone asked me if we should have a confidentiality notice in all our emails. You know, that thing that says something about how this is confidential and if you received this email by mistake you need to, I dunno, repent or something. The economy’s going to hell; tuition’s on the rise while admissions on the down low, and folks are worried about a confidentiality notice? Why don’t we just stop recycling and buy a Chevy Gashoe while we’re at it?

    If you received this confidential comment in error, please pass it on to as many people as possible. If you break the chain, something terrible will happen to you. One person did not pass it on and invested his life savings with Madoff.

    If, however, you received this comment not in error, immediately close your browser, turn off your computer, take your life savings and send them to Tamarkin Managed Futures LLC.

    I had one of my staff do the exact same thing a couple of weeks ago. We’re trying to get off our old failing mail system to Google Apps, so my response was, “I’m happy if the email gets to someone at all.” It helped put things in perspective.

    Everything is “critical” so it’s about how you prioritize given the resources you have.
