The spoon is a lie.

Take the red pill.
Panic, Chaos, Destruction. My work here is done. Drink. Get drunk. Fall over - P O'H OK, I will win to day or my name isn't Ethel Crudacre! - DD Ethel Crudacre I cannot live by bread alone. Bacon and ketchup are needed as well. - Trollslayer Have a bit more patience with newbies. Of course some of them act dumb - they're often *students*, for heaven's sake - Terry Pratchett

"To develop is like lifting a spoon, to request access to anything is like moving a mountain". I am working on a project that needs to process a daily data file from a different team. The design is for the other team to ftp the file into a shared folder and for my program to read and process it. Sounds simple enough, my code was ready in a couple of hours. But I need to request a shared folder to be created on a NAS server. Everybody has to use an internal online security access request form to do such things. What I need is create the shared folder and grant privilege to a service account to read/write the folder. The damn security access request form cannot handle it, when I put in the service account, it throws an error because the service account does not belong to a real employee of the company! I found the person who is handling such requests, gave him a full description of what I want and also asked my manager to give approval of my request. However, he insisted that I should work with the online security access request form, instead of putting in the service account, I should put in my own account. Which I did. I knew something would go wrong and I was right. After the shared folder was created, I found out that I have access to it (even for production environment) instead of the service account. Finally all issues were resolved after three weeks. Now it is the other team's turn. They have to request the same access to the shared folder for their own service account so that they can ftp the data file. It turns out their request will be handled by a different group in the company and it won't be any easier comparing to what I have gone through!
This is the kind of stupid bureaucracy and paper work which really gets in the way of progress. You have my sympathy!

So far, no one seems to have cracked this!The unofficial awesome history of Code Project's Bob! "People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom of thought which they avoid."
