How about the folks who flatly refuse to follow any kind of procedure? We have a PURCHASING DEPARTMENT. So what does our department AVP do? Calls up an office furniture place and negotiates some furniture on her own (she just felt like a office suite, hers was "tacky"). She doesn't even have the authority to spend any of the department's money! I had to backtrack through the ENTIRE purchasing procedure AND I got bawled out by the purchasing director for not following procedure. (My response to him was, "Yer preachin' to the choir.") AVP's reasoning? "Well, I was trying to save time by eliminating all this {dismissive wave of the hand} procedure crap."
It took twice as long to get the furniture and, oh yeah, now we're over budget! :rolleye
