Email also caused an explosion in medium and high value communication, some in business and some in personal life. Pre-texting I had a great time keeping in touch with friends around the country.
"which required a person to dictate the memo to a secretary (usually), then the secretary type it up, then the person to proofread/correct it, then the secretary to retype the final memo, send it to duplicating, and then send the duplicates to the mailroom for distribution to recipients." ...how is this an optimal process?
I mean should we go back to riding horses around town as well, since cars probably increase the amount of low-value travel?
- SoftTalker 3y agoDidn't say that the old process was optimal but the cost of it meant that there were built-in natural limits. As the GP said, removing the time and effort required often results in production of a lot of worthless output. And yes cars have undoubtedly increased the amount of low-value travel. I don't think we need to go back to horses but we might want to better price in the externalites.
