“Alice is available today at 3pm, tomorrow at 11:30am or 1:30pm.” ” “I’m not available then, but…” It’s incredible how wasteful it is to engage in this activity. Have we benefited nothing from advances in technology? Is this really the best we can do? It blows my mind.

Each is a new take on an old theme, echoing one part of the contradiction that has riddled every business with a captive technology department: we want to minimize how much we spend on IT, and we want IT to be a source of innovation.
