You can tell when office automation has gone too far. "I had it out with the computer today. It docked my pay and transferred me to Peoria." "Don't think of it as replacing you, Basil. Think of it as setting you free to look for a better job." "I was replaced by a computer, but they kept me on for historical reasons." "I need a few dozen employees to work until we can afford to replace them with a computer." "I am an equal opportunity employer... I employ three different types of computers." -- M.L.
