LOL, I've just heard a rumour that my friends are to be audited with a view to determining what value they add to the business

That's made my day - I'm going nowhere til that's finished

<Dream>Hung out to dry<\Dream ON>

Their biggest problem is that there is a large central IT group that their 'patch' is a part of. The work they do essentially duplicates that of the central team.

They've obviously been having fun recently as they have just done some 'improvements' to the network that mean around half our machines now can't see the network drives. The fact that this means that the people who use these machines are rather restricted in the work they are able to do is seen as a very low priority, less important than for example changing someone's name on the email system because they got married.

They are a protected species, maybe they should be an endangered species

Seriously Jen I don't envy you if you're situation is similar. The audit is likely to have no impact whatsoever apart from maybe getting them more staff, unless we have a really good auditor - any volunteers?
