My wife was telling me that the university she used to work at is being audited by the IRS. The lady over the budget, and charged with dealing with sending reports and data to the IRS was relating her fun times. She ran a report that the IRS requested. It had over one millions rows. Excel will not open it, it is too big.
The IRS has an IT director that is stuck in the early 2000s. She can't send an attachment bigger that 1 MB. Any email with a mention of a cloud file, or FTP is just blocked at the server and never arrives. She is almost ready to print it all out on paper and mail it to him.
Of course the IT department at the university will not let her print a report or transfer the data to a CD or DVD, or thumb drive. She had to send about 40 little email attachments in a separate pieces.
Golly technology sure is fun when the IT directors conspire to make the job impossible. My wife is extra super happy she is retired and not in the middle of that.
