In Defense of SPAM.........

Spam Increases Productivity (According To Spammers)

A "ground-breaking" new study underwritten, conducted, and distributed by the Bureau of American Salesmen Taking and Abusing Resources to Distribute Spam (BASTARDS) reveals that the morass of unsolicited commercial email on the Internet actually increases the productivity of the average IT worker by 43.6%.

"What everybody forgets," explained the study's lead author, Dr. Ima Fersaille, "is that spam provides the perfect excuse to delete incoming emails you don't want to answer. If the co-worker, boss, or customer later asks 'Did you get my email?', you can always just say, 'Oops, I must have accidentally deleted it when I was clearing spam from my inbox' or 'Oh darn, I guess the spam filter killed it'.

The study argues that the ability to selectively ignore email allows IT workers to focus on other, more important tasks, therefore increasing productivity.

"With a touch of a button, complaints, bug reports, and technical support requests can be deleted without fear of reprisal," Fersaille said. "Do you really want to live in a world where you have to write detailed responses to every annoying complaint from clueless users? Spam has managed to prevent that dystopian outlook from happening."

They will use anything to justify themselves. So higher productivity because you can delete annoying emails.

Then the sender has to pick up the phone and ask the same question or email is not being used, or the the task was not completed. I see there excuse actually reducing productivity.

But that is the level of intelligence of the people running these SPAM companies.
