  2. My question... on Ask the Robotic Psychiatrist · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Dr. Joanne Pransky, do you see Asimov's 3 laws of robotics playing a role in our relationship with robots in the future? Since most of our technological advances seem to come from developing warfare systems, will the 3 laws be left by the wayside, or will it become an integral part of robotics in the years to come.

    INTEROFFICE MEMO

    TO: All employees

    SUBJECT: Excessive Absenteeism

    Due to the number of absences from the office, the following rules and
    procedures wil be put into effect as of this date.

    SICKNESS: No excuse. We will no longer accept your doctor's statement
    as proof. If you are able to go to the doctor, you are able to
    come to work.

    LEAVE OF ABSENCE (For an operation): We are no longer allowing this
    practice. As long as you are employed here you will need whatever
    You should not consider having anything removed. We hired you as
    you are and to have anything removed would make you less than we
    bargained for.

    DEATH (Other than your own): This is no excuse. There is nothing you
    can do for them and we are sure that someone else with a lesser
    position can take care of the arrangements. However, if the
    funeral can be held in the late afternoon, we will be glad to let
    you off one hour early providing that your share of work is ahead
    enough to keep the job going in your absence.

    DEATH (Your own): This will be accepted as an excuse, but we would like
    a two-weeks notice as we feel it is your duty to teach someone else
    your job.

    RESTROOM: Entirely too much time is spent in the restroom. In the
    future we will follow the practice of going in alphabetical order;
    for instance, those whose names begin with (A) will go from 8:00
    to 8:15, (B) 8:15 to 8:30, etc. If you are unable to go at your
    appointed time it wil be necessary to wait until your turn comes
    around again.
