    Perhaps you think of something different than I do when I read "helpdesk",
    but IMHO a company with 300 people certainly DOES need a way to track user
    requests for help, and what was done to help them. That can mean software,
    or a set of procedures and a shared mailbox, but to not have any formal way
    of tracking user issues in an organization of over a dozen or so folks is
    insanity.
