As one who has spent a lot of time
interpreting instructions from technical people to non-technical people, I
believe I can see reason in both contentions here, just a technology gap
between them. <br>
<br>
When the first person asked if they should
keep 8.0.1 or wait for the next release, he wanted an answer that at least
began with something like this... "No, we already have the fix prepared in
version 8.0.3." THEN, the second person could go on to explain how it is
found and downloaded and installed for optimum use.<br>
<br>
At this time of year, there are a lot of
new commanders and other officers that are having their first experience with
any internet based function of the USPS other than possibly getting a
"list" of one sort or another, and it seems relatively few use these
lists, compared to the number of people we have in responsible positions in the
organization.<br>
<br>
The many people like John who have little
experience with computers and are now thrust, by a new office in the USPS, into
working with things like DB2000 that are not only completely unfamiliar to
them, but on an unfamiliar medium, the internet. Someone saw fit to make this
person a commander or the like and we need to respect their choice and help
their squadron (as a team would) to be a stronger link of our overall fabric.
None of us will benefit from tearing new holes anywhere in the fabric!!! We
simply need to understand that we are all different and listen carefully to
questions to interpret on what level the best answer would be presented to
achieve understanding.<br>
<br>
<br>
VERY sincerely yours,<br>
<br>
