"There's no point in fighting [it]"!!

Maybe not - I mean, the board would be happy for the IT team to down tools before they've undertaken the necessary contractuals to turn them into shelf-stackers, wont they? It's not as if most businesses aren't dependent on their IT systems working is it? </sarcasm>

When this happens to industries it's the end of that industry in this country isn't it? We don't own car companies any more, the mining industry is gone, the electricity providers are being bought out by overseas companies...

What ever happened to the knowledge eceonmy we were supposed to be developing? It looks like we outsourced it!
