True story.

Back in the 90s, I was installing applications on Unix servers in hospitals. I put the packages on cassettes ( not audio cassettes ) and sent them by Purolator.

One Friday night, my boss asked me to prepare a cassette with a package that corrected a bug. By the time the cassette was ready, it was too late to call Purolator. As I was discussing this with my boss, the boss from the sales department came to join the conversation. FInally, because of the lack of options, and since the cassette had to be at the Trois-Rivieres hospital on Monday morning, my boss said : "I have to go to Trois-Rivieres during the weekend. I will take the cassette with me."

The other boss said : "No way ! What if you have an accident ? The cassette will never reach the hospital."
