My background is that of a healthcare professional and full-time fire fighter, and baring witness to sad and often uncontrollable events like this more so than I care for I’ve noticed a unique trait amongst all those I’ve seen move on and prosper following events like this. The people who endure, persevere and grow stronger in the wake of tragedy are those who have worked hard and have passion leading up to the tragedy they experience in life, priming themselves so to speak to take "the hit" and carry on and heal. All your hard work and commitment to your business will be the very thing that pulls you through this. I hope that you can take solace in all your accomplishment and success in life and continue on in a similar fashion, for it could be the very thing that guides you through this loss.<br />I really do appreciate and enjoy your blog and thank you for that.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2896607568583881271.post-66797040526053020462013-06-10T07:02:24.737-07:002013-06-10T07:02:24.737-07:00Sorry man.

It takes a while for the shock to wear off. I built the company with one other guy from the ground up. We slowly added office space, and then renovated it twice over the years. It takes a while to accept that the place I have walked to every work day for 10 years is gone. I am a creature of habbit.<br /><br />I suppose I should paint something....John Stieninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01860350974000948346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2896607568583881271.post-23229427509562817532013-06-06T20:55:34.376-07:002013-06-06T20:55:34.376-07:00I wish you a prompt recovery, the fact that there ...I wish you a prompt recovery, the fact that there is no life loss makes a really hard issue to be at least a bit pallatable is no confort, but calm down and set the example, you will be better after a while.

You are safe and that is what matters. I know it doesn't sound great right now, but doing it all the second time around is easier because you know where you are going and can even make improvements. It will take time to recover, but believe me, you and your company will be better for it. Take it slow.Zabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07000817078818838705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2896607568583881271.post-86700825579267441802013-06-06T06:00:41.633-07:002013-06-06T06:00:41.633-07:00Holy cow!

Even at a medium sized shop we were suddenly surprised to find that some of our VM's didn't have the backup agent working properly, so when the entire array hardware failed and we lost all the storage there was no good restore point. All the best getting back on track. At least with a small boutique shop nobody knows your code better than you.Mike Howellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00119045198858883590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2896607568583881271.post-11527670163407664712013-06-06T04:59:04.088-07:002013-06-06T04:59:04.088-07:00oh NO!
