Hiring Tech Support Collin County Community College (CCCC) has an ongoing problem that the electronic equipment in their classrooms and computer labs keeps malfunctioning and the repairs that are made seem to cause problems with some other aspect of the equipment. Due to its bureaucratic structure, CCCC has a hiring preference for their own students and it is only allowed to pay 15 per hour when the going rate is closer to 18 per hour. How does this contribute to CCCC's equipment problems?
