Once, when I was threatened with that state of affairs, I just
started sending every task that I wanted to accomplish to the
IT Help Desk as a trouble ticket.
Whether they gave me what I wanted or not, they had to take the
time to process each request. Any that didn't give me what I
wanted, in timely fashion, got an "unsatisfactory" grade when
it was closed, and so didn't look good on their service tracking statistics.
Wasn't long before it became easier to just give me back
admin privileges and deal with the occasional real issue
if I got myself into trouble.
