Back to employees becoming controllers then ;-) Unless security policy

Subject: Re: Mail
Where I used to work (many moons have passed) all mail was opened after some
video tapes were being passed around the male section of the workforce. All
the brown envelopes were marked "Personal, Private and Confidential."
Following this new policy, private (and personal - according to the talk so
far these terms are different in meaning) details of individuals were
disclosed to the mail room staff, chief officers' PAs and staff seconded to
those positions in times of absence.
The accuracy of data in the gossip increased dramatically.
