Communication Flaws
(Contributed by Santosh Mishra)


From : Managing Director 
To : Executive Director 

"Tomorrow morning there will be a total eclipse of the 
sun at nine o'clock. This is something which we cannot see 
everyday. So let the work-force line up outside, in their best clothes to 
watch it. To mark the occasion of this rare occurrence, I will personally 
explain the phenomenon to them. If it is raining we will not be able to see it 
very well and in that case the work force should assemble in the canteen." 
----------------------------------------------- 

From : Executive Director 
To : Departmental Head 

"By order of the Managing Director, there will be a 
total eclipse of the sun at nine o' clock tomorrow morning. 
If it is raining we will not be able to 
see it in our best clothes, on the site. In this case 
the disappearance of the sun will be followed through 
in the canteen. This is something we cannot 
see happening everyday." 
-------------------------------------------------- 

From : Departmental Heads 
To : Sectional Heads 

"By order of the Managing Director, we shall follow 
the disappearance of the sun in our best clothes, 
in the canteen at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. 
The Managing Director will tell us whether it is going 
to rain. This is something which we cannot see happen everyday." 
------------------------------------------------- 

From : Section Heads 
To : Foreman 

If it is raining in the canteen tomorrow morning, 
which is something that we cannot see happen 
everyday, the Managing director in his best clothes, 
will disappear at nine o'clock." 
-------------------------------------------------- 

From : Foreman 
To : All Operators 

Tomorrow morning at nine o' clock, the Managing 
Director will disappear. It's a pity that we can't see 
this happen everyday"
