If you were the guy getting hit from 20 different people, each with their own emergency, has to be done now, $4 million deal counts on it BS task, I wager you'd be singing a different tune. Oh and come to find out, that $4 million dollar deal? It had fallen through the previous month only no one had communicated it to the person makeing the request.

My favorite was the marketing manager who thought an email, with a full size image attachment, and note saying 'this needs to go on the marketing site' was sufficient requirements.

Requirements and prioritization are not a bad thing. Excessive bureaucracy is.
