Get Rid of Corporate Speak from a Piece of Communication

Root cause continues to be lack of mainframe resources due to continuing record usage rates, year end processing demands, and contingency-system-resource constraints. These were again detected early with mitigations beginning immediately. System resources from development/test regions have been allocated to production to help with the load, and the team performed special load balancing. IT will continue close systems monitoring and other measures will continue in order to mitigate further disruptions. This will be our final communication on this issue but we will continue our communications tomorrow if system issues persist.

Translation: Because everyone is using

the same system at the same time, the

computers are slow and people started

whining. We stole some processing

power from other stuff to help. Leave

us alone.
