So frustrated

I've been very frustrated at work lately. More than usual, I guess. This morning, I did something to my workstation that completely hozed it up. I got it working again, but not 100%. The computer is just cheap crap and the drivers for that cheap junk don't work well.

Then one of the DBA guys emails me (and the usual gang of CC) asking, in a rather accusatory manner, a question that has been answered at least 3 times in the recent past. This sort of thing happens a lot. The group will make a decision about something, then someone will say something and the decision will be lost and the whole debate starts over. Even simple things take 3 or 4 times longer than they should because nobody can make a decision stick.

I try very hard to short-circuit this process where I can in my areas of responsibility, but too often other involved parties can't let things go and aren't willing to stick with a decision.

This morning I was so frustrated that I had to leave the office for a while to calm down.

I don't like being this frustrated.
