I think that is one of the problems of our profession. Most of what we do looks like magic. So when we can't do something, a lot of people probably just assume we don't know the right magic, or are choosing not to use enough of it.<br>
<br>
We can then get instructed to do it anyway.<br>

mgr:  I need you to <do something stoopid><br>
<br>
me:   no, that's stoopid, networks don't work that way and I'm not going to do it<br>

me:   no, that's stoopid, networks don't work that way and I'm not going to do it<br>

<br>
me:   okaaaaay, if that's what you want...<br>
<br>
<br>
Of course, an email train is very important at this stage as <do something stoopid> will have a bad impact on network operations sooner or later...<br>

No, I have never seen that, but I assure you the other<br>
engineers in my group will shortly because that's exactly<br>
what I'm talking about.  With the mgrs, idiotic meetings<br>
and everything!<br>
