Problem
4-5 paragraph with at least 1 properly formatted citation on these question.
Two weeks ago you started the new job as a system administrator for a computer lab at a small college. Wanting to make good impression, you immediately set out to learn more about the various applications provided to the users of the lab. One of the packages, and engineering design tool, seemed way out of date. You look through the labs file of licensing agreements to see how much it would cost to get an upgrade. Do your hair, you discover that the college never purchased a license for the software, it is running a bootleg copy !
When you bring this to the attention of your boss, the colleges director of information technology, he says, the license for the software would cost us 10,000, which we don't have in our budget right now. This software is absolutely needed for our engineering students, though. Maybe we can get the license next year. For the time being, just keep the current version running.
How would you respond to your manager?
