It's getting weird out there.

I deal with a few bureaucrats and office workers. Up until about a year ago, their emails were pretty simple and they sounded a lot like someone just tapped them out while on the toilet.

Now they sound robotic and machine like. Very polite, to the point, concise and very professional. A year ago these people would just ask a vague question and not really know what to say.

Now they've automatically become professional writers sending me a polite note.

It's good .... but it just makes me wonder where all this is going.

It's putting lipstick on a pig .... no matter how much you dress it up, it's still a pig that likes to eat garbage and cover itself in mud.
