		<description>You should go to your supervisors.

&quot;I really need some data from CW to get my stuff done, but (s)he&#039;s taking a really long time; (s)he may need some help.  I don&#039;t have the time to work up that data and get all my own stuff done, though.  What do you suggest?&quot;

I fear that, if you don&#039;t speak up, your bosses might get miffed at you for &quot;covering up for CW&quot; or &quot;allowing incompetence to run rampant in the company&quot; or &quot;not getting your job done regardless&quot;.  Bosses think all manner of strange things.

Just try to phrase things as politely as possible.

That or get them transferred to a miserable and far-away-from-you job.</description>
