This is why we find people on top of over passes with sniper rifles. When someone tells you no there always has to be higher appeal, supervisor or not. I worked in the headquarters of a mid sized state depart. i hired trainers from the field and told them their job is to find someone who has the authoiorty to say yes because every asshole can say no.

That's what you call the "Fairy God Mother Department" (Thanks to Robert Heinlein's "Time Enough For Love"). I got connected to the "Department of Dirty Tricks." It's open 24/7 and has multiple lines bandager operators. The FGMD is only open alternate Tuesdays from 11:03AM to 11:34AM, but the phone is usually waiting for a repairman from the DDT guy's, who are all working overtime, elsewhere.
