until senior managers take an attitude of "there but for the grace
of god go I" regarding over-exuberant Usenet postings, there is a
risk. And despite Usenet being more widespread since the eternal
september, I don't think many senior managers have reached that yet.

Speaking as a senior manager, I'm pretty sure there are postings I made on
Usenet in the 1980s I'd probably regret now, and being well aware of the
perils of social media would absolutely not be holding someone's youthful
indiscretions against them provided they're not of a nature that brings
into doubt their trustworthiness.

I suspect I am not unique and senior managers - in tech firms in
particular
- are rather more forward thinking than you imagine.

A lot of senior managers I know still get someone to print out their
emails so they can read them. Beware viewing the world from inside a
tech-bubble.

I'd be very surprised, if there are more then a handful of managers who
are incapable of finding the "print" button" for themselves.

They are from a generation who don't even have a keyboard.

So the very nature of the fact that they have someone who can be tasked
with printing them out for them, suggests that they are being printed
out for a different reason than "the manager is incapable of accessing
them on a computer for him/herself"

No.
