IT Depts make work for IT Depts
Posted in Uncategorized on January 3, 2008 at 10:13 am
It has long been a Dilbert type theory that half of the IT department is there to make work for the other half thus keeping both halves in lucrative employment. Given my experience yesterday I might have to agree.
You may remember I spent an hour on the phone to report a problem so that I had access the support system to report a failed link to a training site which might just help with a failed order.
What I didn’t mention yesterday was that to underline the full circularity of the system my time on the phone was primarily caused by my attempt to order - can you guess? Oh yes, a phone.

Fortunately years of streamlining have fixed our problem there - I wonder how the theory applies to IT departments of 1 ?

Just because there’s only one of you doesn’t mean you can’t make work for yourself - I know I do frequently!
However, it does seem to be the bigger the Co. the bigger the Co.ck-up
