post message

There is this thing in the stuff i work on , its called " post message " .... a VC++ function . It will ask some program to do a carry out some task and then continue on its path of execution .
I ve observed that this is the was that many people and teams also function in this and probably many other organisations . The boss gives the employee some work and goes on with his ... the teacher goes on teaching irrespective of whether the student has understood or not ... The prospective lover sends a bunch of messages on the mobile without waiting to check the reply to the first message he sent ... and after all the damage is done wonders why he didnt wait .
The disadvantages of this obvious , ... but that is the only way some things work ... I can think of a place where this method is both avoided and used a lot , the conference room. when one does not want anyone to ask any questions about what is going on , just don't give any details ...brush over and make sure everything sounds very convincing even its all crap . I ve seen it work with a lot of people ... even the most observant of leads sometimes go with the flow . The whole concept of email works on this principle ... if the recepient responds fine , otherwise what the hell... doesn't matter anyway !

Often the intranet chat also seems to take on this avatar ... where the person is not responding at will and to make her respond ... u need to post provocative messages or atleast something relatively more interesting than the previous time of post . If there was an award for the most creative ways of starting a chat ... i would definitely at least apply for it ! for I know some people who could be termed "cyber casanovas" .... one particular guy comes to my mind ... we used to call him "gutlee" , now hes breaking the hearts of many a mysore girl .

A very potent tool in the right hands , the intranet chat can also be a more potent tool in the hands of the organisation which wants to deal you a heavy hand ... cuase u would provide them with all the proof necessary to chuck u out if the necessity arose !! by chatting about all subjects under the sun ..on an infrastructure privided for "company purpaoses" whatever that may be .

All said and done , the electronic media is truly amazing ... with the kind of connectivity that we have now , theres no scope for romantic letters and long awaited telegrams and the like ,... everything is instantaneous and its all over in a few seconds ... this also applies to a lot of other things in the privacy of the home .

A thought to finish off" As the sphere of knowledge grows , the contact with the unknown increases .... " - psb

Its like a law, no contradiction anywhere and is universal ... think about it .
