Corporate bureaucracy
A dog park friend works as a web developer at some corporation that believes a computer is a computer is a computer.
So the computer they buy for everyone works quite well for the people who use one browser and a wordprocessor and maybe a spreadsheet and maybe a mail client.
But if you do web development, you have to test on lots of browsers, and often have lots of windows open in each, and an editor with numerous windows open.
So the way he tells the story, he had requested numerous times that he get more memory on his computer. And then one day he realized that he could double the amount of memory for $10, and he had that much in his pocket, so he did it. And then they yelled at him for not following the proper procedure.
