No, seriously. We have most of our install CDs in a locked drawer and people have to ask for them. Our bug-tracking software was recently updated and everyone needs the CD.

And I can't give it to them. I handed the CD to N., who asked first, anticipating getting it back so I could pass it on to C, then A, and so on in the order they ask. Well, N gave it to C who gave it to J who gave it to E who is not in the office and I have sent email asking where the CD is to E.

A still hasn't got it. He asked me for it again this morning and I had to tell him I neither have it nor know where it is at this point. I'm about ready to give up. I have not installed it either. There's a network install. I'll probably just use that myself, even though it's so slow it ties your machine up for an hour or so from up here. Because this is ridiculous. The main install is not that bad but we cannot keep track of where a CD is?

Heaven forbid they did this with some CD that we can't do a network install for.

And if one more person asks me for a CD I haven't had in my hands since the email came out telling us to start the installs at almost exactly this time yesterday, and haven't seen since two or three hours after that....
