Take a letter
I was watching North by Northwest last night; it opens with Cary Grant dictating a memo to his secretary as they walk side-by-side along a corridor. It took me a minute or so into the scene to realize that she was his subordinate, writing down whatever he said. I thought she was a colleague taking notes. Because why on earth would he need another human being’s help just to create and transmit a printed document?
