President of the company calls the IT department to ask how to recall an email message, reports a pilot fish in the loop.Impossible, tech tells him.
Once an email message has been sent to the server, it can&t be recalled, and trying to do so will just draw attention to the email.
The president doesnotwant that.&Next day, my boss calls me and two other members of our department into her office,& says fish.
&She says that wehaveto get that email back.
And we can&t let any of the 70 people it was sent to know what we&re doing.
Oh, and it was sent two weeks ago.&Then the boss gives this little pep talk: &That nigh unto impossible, right? Well, we regularly have to make the impossible possible.&
