If the company wasn't constantly buying stupid shit like this and spending money on the most inefficient systems ever, I'd be more inclined to agree with you.
Idiotic business decisions are the recurring costs.
Example: We have a new program in place that is supposed to "balance" inventory across locations. My pharmacy has sent and received the same specialty medication back and forth to another location on the other side of the country 3 times now, with neither location having actual need for the medication. I'm sure we've got a good corporate deal with FedEx, but there's expenses outside of shipping costs (namely pharmacy labor hours) that we're expending to literally just ship a box back and forth across the country. And if we don't do it, they'll come harassing us to see what the "issue" is.
