>Not my experience

The point being conveyed is your experience is not representative of what commonly occurs. I have worked as a contractor in a number of different orgs both small, large, private and public and more often than not unless you force people to fix these things, they won't.

How about you and others with similar attitudes realise that the world isn't perfect and sometimes you have to work with what you got.

Do you think I haven't been looking for a new position? Most of the jobs in my area are going to be more of the same.
