Re: Why do I need admin rights? Well, because of IT

It sounds as if your IT is either outsourced or lining itself up to be outsourced whether it intends that or not. In-house IT staff, and especially manglement, need to realise that it's what the rest of the company does that pays their wages and that it's in their own interests to make sure that they support that fully.

An IT department that's so disconnected that it might as well be in India is likely to find itself out on the street and replaced by one that is in India. Getting out of the the office/cubes and going to talk to some of the users is a Good Idea.
