Bribe the IT staff and the Admins with whatever treats they want constantly... -me
I worked in an amazon building where we got free energy drinks but no one else did... the head of IT for the building loved red bull sugar free. I'd roll down there to get something fixed and bring one for him and I knew what the others wanted. He'd waddle over from behind his desk and see what I needed as soon as I set the drinks on the table. He was a manager, never did anything for anyone else but the EAs in bulk. People complained verbally, he'd just say "he filed a ticket yesterday". I'd sit around sipping a drink while he told me about working on paul allen's yacht's AV system even tho I was missing a meeting. You gotta know who to be nice to. His stories were good too.
Another guy loved me forever cause I walked in to IT on my first day looking for a mac when they didn't give them by default... before talking to me he was like "WTF is this thing how do I quit" and I said "escape : wq" and he's like wtf how do you know that and I was like "it's that or emacs"... instant first person service from then on.
