Electronic Calender Phobia (ECP)

Electronic Calender Phobia (ECP) is a syndrome that occurs when older employees at a company resist using calendaring software - insisting on continuing their use of paper planners.

Employee 1: Oh my gosh, why can't Sally just use our calendering system to schedule meetings. She is always calling or emailing me to see if I have availability. "Um, check the electronic calendar"
Employe 2: Oh dude, she has a serious case of Electronic Calender Phobia (ECP) - she may never get rid of her old-school paper planner.
