what department within your company do you hate the most?

Marketing - they don't seem to grasp reality when it comes to what our customers want. Our product is the most expensive one in our market ad they cannot seem to justify why. They also get the most funding and are totally unwilling to implement requests from other departments.
 
The most....uh....so many to choose from

Probably upper management - who also controls procurement (although sales is pretty bad too) Upper management decides to offer a new service but with no training and turns down any and all requests for the necessary equipment to do the job. I frequently have to stop by home and pick up the required tools. *sigh*

Edit: And we are sooooooo top heavy. I am the highest level that actually goes out to do the work and I have 2 bosses and they have, combined 5 bosses with an additional 4 above that.
 
Sales. They're a bunch of freaking morons who don't even know what the hell it is they're selling. Then Production has to ask them WTF they're talking about when the sales orders go through. Then Tech has to mop up the mass after the customer made the purchase. I hate them. Hate them!
 
HR - the most useless department in your office. They can't even answer any HR questions or benefit questions. All your emails get a "reply all" to see if anyone knows the answer" and then no one ever replies.

Production
 
We dont have departments per se (save for IT & HR, both of which i like), we have programs (research) and platforms (fee for service). That being said, i hate the imaging platform the most.
 
It's got to be pharmacy. Yeah, you overpaid tool - send me 12 100mg gabapentins to shove down the throat of the old geezer who can't swallow, because it's convenient for "you".
 
Definitely the accounting department. Somehow, they seem to have it in their mindset that they are the most important department and that when they ask operations a question, operations has to drop everything else to get them an answer.

Accountants need to keep in mind that if we didn't have sales and operations, they wouldn't have any beans to count.
