       On why unix root vs. user sucks big time (read is pure shit)

        ------------------------------
       
       A linux user since 2005 I have come to realize that its philosophy 
       pure shit when it comes to root vs. user management.
       
       I have exclusively used linux (unix like) operating systems for 15 
       years. At home I am the root user but at work I am a simple user wi
       no privileges at work. We have no internet access at all.  We canno
       install any new software and what is worse, whenever we make a mist
       we have to call the root users to fix it, since we are not allowed 
       fix it ourselves.
       
       This is nonsense, we must use the shitty bespoke software the compa
       uses, but if we make a mistake we cannot fix it because we do not h
       the privileges to overwrite data on the database. 
       
       This only makes things slow and clumpsy, the workforce to make thin
       right is more expensive than it should be since a simple correction
       takes two or three people involved to fix it.
       
       I am not complaining because I do not like the job. I do like my jo
       lot. I only find that the workflow is not as fluid as it should be.
       
       The final conclusion is always the same: "They want it this way, th
       got it. No matter what the cost."
