I've had the same thought. I actually met with my boss and HR about this, and they said there was nothing they could do. The issue is the company structure. I work for a 501c3 affiliated to another organization. The parent company provides all of our admin functions like HR, IT, etc. We share a board, and the director of each department reports directly to the board. The IT director is really well liked by the board because he never spends any money.
The average age of our board is somewhere north of 80 (not kidding), and they don't understand what IT is. True story--our parent organization didn't have a website until 2003, because the IT director thought websites were a fad. He was forced to buy the domain after someone else bought it and used it to post stuff the board found unappealing.
The only way to describe the entire situation is Kafkaesque.
