Why I sigh...

I worry about places that "could not stand to be re-deployed". Where is the back up and disaster recovery?
Much quicker to do a bare metal recovery than altering 2000 reg keys.

Believe me there was much I was worried about there. People with degrees in things that I don't know the first thing about in IT but I'm the one who has the foresight and common sense to realize that a standardized image for the stand alone workstations is good business sense.

Logical disconnects in business are a way of life. In my last corporate job, the fact that I had three years of college (interrupted by the draft) counted against me getting an entry level job. I was used to hard work and physical labor, plus I was very persistent, so I made a go of it, and rose to mid-level management. But then I couldn't advance because all the upper pay grades needed a 4 year degree or a Masters, preferably an MBA.

So, I was stuck at a position where I was continually trying to explain to my bosses why their ideas wouldn't work, while having the same conversation with my peers who had no experience in the industry and explaining why all the stuff they thought was new and exciting had already failed.

Anyone who wants to know why American business is going through hard times doesn't need to blame the unions, they just need to focus on management that has no understanding of the business they are supposed to manage.
