well back in the oldy days, they would say he "fancied" a girl, not "liked" her, but the most common show of affection was if he gave her his letterman's jacket

The amount of wasted budget is ridiculous. My boss was on a conference call about it once and the numbers were staggering. They had to get tablets for all the employees, purchase the app that closest fit what we were doing, but it wasn't really what we needed at all so we had to pay developers to adjust it and IT guys to tweak it and work with the people using it to relay information back to the people who could "improve" it and it was implemented without any kind of trial period or testing.
It set us back months and the cost was in the millions by the time it was usable, and even then, it was slower and more basic and less detailed, so nobody had enough information to be helpful at all when you had to look at it.
All this was to generate information that had to be printed and mailed out, when a box of ballpoint pens could have filled out the same paperwork.

In the workplace, pen and paper. Going "paperless" makes a lot of things way more complicated in working situations. I've seen hundreds of thousands of dollars sunk into designing systems to go wireless or paperless and it has made life infinitely more complicated for everyone involved and the vastly superior solution would just be pen and paper.

Eh, it's not that bad. Keep on the Zyrtec and you would hardly notice. Werewolves though, they hate it

separate silverware in the dish washing machine. Knives in the back, forks in the middle, spoons up front.
