Asking to leave work on time or taking some time off can be tricky enough. Even trickier is tendering a resignation, which can be seen as the ultimate form of disrespect in the world’s fourth-biggest economy, where workers traditionally stick with one employer for decades, if not for a lifetime.
In the most extreme cases, grumpy bosses rip up resignation letters and harass employees to force them to stay.
Yuki Watanabe was unhappy at her previous job, saying her former supervisor often ignored her, making her feel bad. But she didn’t dare resign.
“I didn’t want my ex-employer to deny my resignation and keep me working for longer,” she told CNN during a recent interview.
Your doctor is still using fax as well. It’s much more secure than email and is the gold standard for confidential materials since it requires a physical wiretap to access.
Get outta here with that bullshit. Encrypted email has been standard for like 20 years now, Fax is functionally plaintext across a telephone line. Most places that interact with technophobes that still utilize fax are using email-to-fax services.
Hospitals use it because regulations that have not been rewritten this century, and it’s an easy bare minimum to meet.
Yup! Fax is considered “analog” where as email is “digital” so the Hipaa/Hi-Tech laws are a lot easier on faxing then emails.
