உலகத்தோடு ஓட்டொழுகல் பல கற்றும் கல்லார் அறிவிலாதார்
திருக்குறள்
Those who have studied a lot but cannot flow with the world are ignorant
----Thirukkural

Recently I went a client's place.
The manager told me that they are seriously considering banning inter departmental electronic mail in their company.
I asked "why".
He said it is because a junior employee in the form forwarded a mail to a very senior person and that person did not take it lightly and complained to the MD.
The MD then called the manager and told him it is better to ban internal email in order to maintain hierarchy .
The manager replied "sir, we will think about it later " and dodged it.
Later nobody followed it up.So they have e mail still.
Conclusion : Even now there are such anachronistic people !!!!!!!!!!
