This memo
is to announce the development of an important new software system
which will make your system 'Year 2000' compliant. This program
is known as "Millennia Year Application Software System"
(MYASS).
Next Monday there will be a meeting in which I will show
MYASS to everyone. We will hold demonstrations throughout the
month so that all employees will have an opportunity to get
a good look at MYASS. We have not addressed networking aspects
yet, so currently only one person at a time can use MYASS. This
restriction will be removed after MYASS expands.
Some employees have begun using the program already. This
morning I walked into a subordinate's office and was not surprised
to find that he had his nose buried in MYASS.
Some of the less technical people may be somewhat afraid
of MYASS. Last week my secretary said to me, "I'm a little
nervous, I never put anything in MYASS before." I helped
her through the first time and afterward she admitted that it
was relatively painless and she was actually looking forward
to doing it again, and was even ready to kiss MYASS.
There have been concerns over the virus that was found in
MYASS upon initial installation, but the virus has been eliminated
and we were able to save MYASS. In the future, however, protection
will be required prior to entering MYASS. This database will
encompass all information associated with the business. As you
begin using the program, feel free to put anything you want
in MYASS.
As MYASS grows larger, we envision a time when it will be
commonplace for a Supervisor to hand work to an employee and
say, "here, stick this in MYASS."
It will be a great day when we need data quickly and our
employees can respond, "Here it is, I just pulled it out
of MYASS."
