I know... unfortunately, reality sucks in those cases. But it will never change if we bow down and accept it. Whenever you're faced with such a problem, make sure your manager knows it. Put it in bold letters in your status reports like "work compromised" and "unable to make all deliverables". Report to your manager how much down time you had waiting for a solution that didn't come, how it impacted your work, etc. I'm not asking anyone to risk their job security. But work with your manager and let them know that you're not getting the infrastructure and tools to do your job effectively. If you can, work with the manager to produce some numbers showing the company how much time is wasted by you and your colleagues and convert that to money. The total of the waste in a department might be enough to get some changes started. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center
