End the show with a light-hearted look at technology. Greg Schwem will share his hilarious views on technology and today's business environment. He will share his observations on topics such as technical support lines, monotonous business meetings, acronyms, "frequently" asked questions, e-commerce, cell phone addiction and that annoying guy in every office who always sends two word e-mails! By the end of Greg Schwem's show, you'll see how "efficient" tools are actually rendering us inefficient.
