Transcript

When you work in IT and the company wants you to install an application right that second but they don't want to pay for it. Like I had one client and they asked me to roll out the Adobe suite to all of their users, even though knowing that all these users don't need it. And they come to me a week later and they're like, how come this hasn't been rolled out yet? And then it's like when I say to them, listen, I sent you the purchase order two weeks ago. I actually resent it to you a few days ago and I haven't heard any response on it. And then all they come back with you with is this needs to be done now. All this needs to be installed now. Now, please help me out here. If you're not going to pay for the software in a company environment, I don't know exactly what you want me to do for you.
