A few days ago, when I initially requested my new Desigo license, the firs response that I got from someone in the main Siemens office was, “Do you really need this?”. They were balking at my request, I guess because these licenses aren’t cheap.

Huh?

The single most important software that I need to do my job, eight hours a day, five days a week, and they weren’t sure if I should get it because of the cost?

How does any of this make any sense?
