Agreed no one in the IT world is immune from the current market situation and is (sometimes easily) replaceable. My question here is:

-Are these pointers only applicable during tough times?
-Is it okay to sitback on your bum, not upgrade yourself
-and access sensitive data on your intranet okay during good times?

No I don’t think so!

Except for being resonably demanding, I think rest of the points should be adhered to at any workplace; whether you are in IT, Finance, Customer Service, Teacher or even a bus driver!
