Loss of Technology

The first mail I receive for the day is from my IT team saying that we were having some issue with our servers and that mails/intranet portals etc. were all gonna be down. 'Good Fun', I thought. Apparently not. After a few failed attempts at 'Test mails' to each other, we all resigned to doing mundane documentation works and the likes. 

What I did realize today, was that lack of technology can give you a lot of time to: 

  • Listen to good old numbers 
  • Sing Along
  • Clean up your desk/desktop/laptop/mobile etc. 
  • Panic about what all needs to be done
  • Eat with a few munches more
  • Wonder why the 'Send/Receive' button on Outlook hasn't jammed yet
and the likes.

So, overall "Lack of Technology = Time for a LOT of forethought" :P But, on the flip side servers are back and all work is flowing in NOW, when we would ideally be packing bags! Dyammit! ;)
