# A Rant Against Lotus Notes

I have never had the pleasure of working for an organization that uses Lotus Notes as its primary corporate e-mail program. And I never will work for one; this is one of the core beliefs that guide my life.

- I will never work in a mill or plant
- I will never work in a restaurant
- I will never work in retail
- I will never work for Google
- I will never use Lotus Notes

Lotus Notes is a long-lost relic of the early 1990s, when GUI design was in its infancy and the precepts were still being laid out.
