Today, I came into work as any other day (7.30am. Well, yes I come to work this early and its because that's when we all start our work at this client site. Otherwise, I am not at all a morning person..but have managed to do the early attendance on this assignment) and I cannot log into my company's network. So, no emails, no portals, no network absolutely. Everything was down, it took more than couple hours for "xxx" network to get fixed. In these hours with the network outage, we all did not know what to do (we 10 of us sit in the same room), some are trying to discuss work, some pretending to work offline etc. But I sat there blank and was thinking how emails drive our daily work and prioritize. We are (atleast IT) so much dependent on emails to tell us what's important and what's not in our daily life.
Communication is for sure a show stopper!! (be it technology beating technology or something else beating technology) :) ...
