How replaceable is that person?
If they are a normal business admin they are very replaceable. So you don't have to make life easy for them unless they can justify the cost of doing so.
How busy are they?
If you have a 1 EFT position filled by an administrator that is only 60% busy then there is no cost in slowing them down until they're at 100% capacity. Then you might think about making life easier for them to avoid having to hire the next administrator. If people avoid doing their job because they don't like their tools that is a disciplinary matter. Time to find an administrator that can do the job required.

That is a mentality which is too horrifiying to find proper words to describe. > If people avoid doing their job because they don't like their tools that is a disciplinary matter. Time to find an administrator that can do the job required. It's human nature to avoid difficult things. Discipline only goes so far; it happens subconsciously. And anyway, small inefficiencies add up to mountains, but it can be hard to see what's going on when everything is just pebbles everywhere.
- inkblotuniverse 4y agoI dislike government intervention, and so disavow my following statement. In the course of fining hidden externalized costs like those of dumping chemical waste into rivers, governments might fine software developers when they dump informational waste on to customers' machines, and if it does, they'll deserve it. Anyone who ships an electron app goes to the gulag.
