So as a golden rule: At least make an explain plan of your query then run if it is any good.. If not, PLEASE STEP AWAY FROM YOUR PC

Assuming a query IS as well tuned as it can be, then the next logical step is to use that Explain to create new indexes and statistics. Sometimes when you have bureaucratic DBAs, you kind of have to walk them thru the process!
