You know that the people that sign your paychecks are under an
"entirety different" set of rules. They usually also get;
1) Higher mail limits.
2) Exemptions from the filters on the web proxy.
3) Immediate service.
4) Any other butt kissing you think necessary to keep them happy.

Sometimes it can legitimately take a while, especially for older archived stuff.

Once a VP couldn't understand why his search for a "titanium driver for his 
golf clubs triggered the content filters. At least not until I showed him the 
part of "TIT"anium that triggered it. Then he was totally on board, and 
usually just e-mailed me on any sites that gave him trouble.
My bosses usually embrace technology, they just don't have a lot of experience 
with it. They are all lawyers and accountants, except for the VP of 
engineering and operations, who of course is an engineer.
