COMMUNICATIONS WITHOUT LIMITS!!

3. Did you review the contract I sent you?
Hello Bob?
Did you review the contract I sent you?

4. ... So it’s finished? You’ll send it to me by e-mail?
- My address? Frankly, I don’t remember it !!!

5. - Just a minute, let me check.
-NICOOOLE, ...
WHAT’S MY ADDRESS?

6. - No, no, that’s my home e-mail address!
- Listen, I can’t find it.
Let me check and call you back.

7. - Oh!... You’re going for lunch...
OK, I’ll send you the address by fax.
You’ll have it when you get back. OK?

8. OK. So give me your fax number.
- What! You don’t know it?

9. - OK, here’s what we’ll do.
You me your fax number and I’ll fax you my address.
- No, that won’t work.
Wait, I’m getting mixed up...
Let me think...

10. So… Hum… OK… Well… Yeah…

11. - What’s your cell-phone number?
- Oh, your battery is dead ... Mine too...

12. - OK, listen, here’s what we’ll do...
- You charge your cell-phone battery, I’ll call you in a couple of hours and leave you my address in your voice mail.

13. - Then you take my e-mail address in your voice mail and you
me your fax number.
Then I can fax you my address.

14. - That’s plan A. Now for plan B!
I send myself an to see what my address is
and then I record a message for you in my voice mail....

15. …when you get it, you send me the answer on my pager...
…so then, I send you a fax with my address.

16. No, it’s not at all complicated.
We just need a bit of coordination... and luck...

17. There’s also a third possibility that’s much simpler: plan C...
You send me the contract directly by express messenger.
Yeah!... It’s the best plan strategically speaking...

18. - But actually, I have a small question...
…what was I supposed to send you by ?
My address, my fax number, my cell number,
pager, telephone?

19. - Oh! You don’t remember either.
- It would probably be a good idea to have periodic bilateral coordination meetings concerning protocols for internal communications.

20. - But anyway, since your office is at the other end of the corridor, I’ll come by to pick it up in 2 minutes... OK? Bye!

21. And the moral…:
Thanks to technology, we can now waste time with an efficiency until now unimaginable, all in the name of saving time…
