Is your internet connection down again?
No one knows when the Internet will fail. It could happen at any time, leaving you without your e-mail, important resources, your sports scores… and even your line of business application, putting work at a standstill.
Therefore, it’s important that your company have a contingency plan for just such an emergency. If your connection to Cyberspace were to ever get severed, you should at least be prepared. We have included a few key points that should assist you for when it happens the NEXT time you need to get that critical order shipped.
Panic!
An excited, agitated state will give you that heightened sense of awareness and will increase your thought processes allowing you to come up with rational solutions. Panic is just nature’s way of putting your body into over-drive. It’s a defense mechanism that gives you an edge when dealing with potentially harmful situations, such as a severed arm or the loss of your Internet.
Find a Telephone
Do you have access to a telephone line? Instead of calling your friends to see if their connection is also down, you could be calling us to fix this for you. Better yet…why wait for the crisis? Call ABC now and we can help you avoid this from ever happening. You can also use a telephone to call 911, an emergency service that will first tell you to calm down, and then tell you to call specially-trained technicians (us) to find the source of the Internet’s failure.
Perform Routine Maintenance
While programs such as Norton Antivirus have removed most of the tedium of computer system maintenance, nothing could help pass the time faster than cleaning out your hard drive, emptying your cache, and organizing your photo collection. Take the time to stare at your screen while you perform a defragmentation. The time will literally fly while you barely notice your separation from the Internet.
Better yet…had you called us earlier these services would already been done…and your entire company would still be working.
