I know in the case of my "day job" that the process of permitting
to change out the antenna on a roof of a commercial building, contracting
to get it done, running the cable down eleven floors, and modifying/requalifying
the system that uses the time (not just computers
but also a phone switch) can run circa $250K and literally
a year of meetings with everybody from the lawyers and neighborhood
association meetings (permit process) to procurement to software changes.

Pretty sad "day job", huh? :-). The rest of it is actually quite
enjoyable!

Tim.
