Read a good post on the importance of disaster recovery/business continuity planning at the HelpDeskNotes.com web site today.
It's scary how many businesses are screwing with the people who work for them by not having a solid plan in place. 9/11, Hurricate Katrina and the latest Hurricane Dean... What's it take to make some executives WAKE UP!!! The outfit I used to work for doesn't have a plan. God forbid the data center burns - people will lose their jobs very quickly and the busines could go under. I'm glad to be out of there for that reason.
Extend the thought from business to personal life... how many people are really prepared for something like I'm going through right now? No job, specialty field (HelpDesk/Support Management).
Granted it was my choice (sort of) to leave, but you've got to be prepared for the possibility.
Much like a hard drive crash - it's not IF, it's WHEN.
