If you could gather all the real estate and people asssociated with administrating CMS it would be mind blowing - you might conclude their must be a better way....
LOL. No need to wonder. They are wasting your money. I have been there also, and the parking lot is so huge, that you may need to call a taxi to get from your car to the building. I once had a Government benefits approval expert tell me that they actually trained their employees with the motto "When in doubt, shell it out".
