Everything gets done so mind-bogglingly slowly! There's always someone you have to talk, who has to talk to someone else. Bureaucratic processes often end up taking hours or days!! I knew to expect this - but experiencing it firsthand is a shock. How do people get anything done? They've computerized some things which helps. But every interface and every database schema has to be designed by a human which I'm told is expensive and takes even longer.
