At the risk of joining the "complain about everything" thread...
The VA is a strange bird. I was offered a VA job, but I'd worked there during training long enough to know I didn't want it. The computer systems some of the departments use are a special kind of dumb. Most patient-facing doctors and nurses use something resembling a modern GUI. However the pathology department has to enter its reports using a DOS-based interface with no GUI, which hasn't been updated since the 1980s. It's so time consuming that we hand-write our reports and give them to secretarial staff who input them for us (a job that shouldn't exist). The most efficient way to review the reports for accuracy is to print them off since there is no convenient way to review them on the screen (I've never seen so much paper and toner wasted everyday). Because each report is handed off twice, it takes longer to release them to clinicians (anything I hand the staff after 4pm isn't getting entered until the next day). And since the entry staff has no medical training (and most doctors have terrible handwriting), they will sometimes confuse benign diagnoses with malignant ones; if I don't catch their mistake when proof-reading, bad things happen.
Solution: just install a freaking modern computer system. It would increase efficiency, improve patient care, elevate moral in the department (everyone hates this workflow), save money by cutting jobs that only exist to interface with an outdated system, and as a bonus, greatly decrease printer usage.
Hm, maybe you're right. That was a little cathartic.
