Andy,

Ah, well, you and I share that. In my last job, and a couple earlier, IT
was part of engineering and reported to me. We were flexible and
responsive, and unbureaucratic. But I admit that many of the "business"
people in the company were a bit uncomfortable with our approach.

Jay,

You're right, I need to be more mindful and appreciative of the pluses,
and try harder to let the minuses roll off my back.  The reason that is
sometimes hard for me is two fold: I once ran IT as part of my
responsibilities in a previous job, which means I got used to everything
working just the way I expected it to (ie., the "right" way); and the
dreaded Microsoft enterprise software suite just drives me crazy.  I
just have to try and put it out of my mind.

Cheers,

a
