Seriously, how is this MY fault?

So begins another day....
The customer is pissed! That workstation you delivered wasn't fully configured AND their software wasn't even installed! What do you have to say for yourself?
Umm, how is it my fault that our order department didn't finish THEIR job, but told me that it was 100% ready?
Well, you were the one who delivered it! You were the last one to touch it, therefore it's YOUR fault!
By that logic, if Firestone manufactures a faulty tire, I should blame the guy in Detroit that put my tires on, since he was "the last one to touch it."
If there is a hell, this is it.
Okay, smartass - what do you suggest we do then?
I know this is radical thinking and all, but how about actually making other people do their jobs around here? Or would that be too much like "work" for you?
