Oh they do, we just don’t like having to explain to our customers anything other than “we’ve fixed it before you 
called.”  I hate downtime.

Ben;

I am sure your SLA's have force majeure clauses. I mean, they must, right?

With talk of there being an involuntary statewide (WA) and then national quarantines (house arrest) for multiple 
weeks, has anyone put thought into the impacts of this on your networks if/when this comes to fruition? 

We're already pushing the limits with telecommuters / those that are WFH, but I can only imagine what things will 
look like with everyone stuck at home for any duration of time.
