Real Paper- E-Mail - Verbal Only - Shoot

I see that Lee has run into a familar problem.


I hope Lee has a well organized filing system that is cross indexed. Return-receipts will be filed and cross indexed with diligence. She will need it to keep up with the system. Obfuscation will be an obstacle to overcome.

I wrote about this a long time ago.



PRO on HCPS: Elephants Have Good Memories:




"I know full well about the importance of a paper trail. Of equal importance is whether the trail is present or not present. Somewhere I wrote about how much power the entity has that controls the paper trail. Fabrication, fraudulent change and missing documentation is all part of the game. Somewhere I wrote about how important it is to make copies and make sure someone else has a copy, and everyone knows that someone else has that copy. It is called insurance."



[For those who mislabel my use of the word "shoot", here is where it came from:

"A variation on this version (played in the United States) involves a fourth count—"SHOOT"—before players throw their gesture.

Rock, represented by a clenched fist.
Paper, represented by an open hand, with the fingers connected.
Scissors, represented by the index and middle fingers extended and separated."

Any filing system of Lee's won't help her if she is in error, though. She'll be hard pressed to locate the paper copy of things that she has invented.

Point taken.

For those who find themselves in need of advocating for themselves, a good filing system still is good advice.

From my personal experience, Lee is not the only entity that invents things, or loses them. Repeatedly.
