It’s Monday morning.

You’ve got coffee. You’ve got a plan.

This is the week you’re finally going to get ahead.

You walk through the door.

Before you set your bag down:

“The printer’s not working again.

Remember blowing into Nintendo cartridges to make them work? That was our version of IT support.

Cartridge won’t load? Blow on it. Still won’t load? Blow harder.

If that failed, you smacked the console.

We thought we were pretty good at technology.

Spring cleaning usually starts with closets, but for most businesses, the real clutter isn’t just on a rack.

Sure, it might be on a server rack, but it could also be sitting in a storage room or a back office, or even in a pile labeled “we’ll deal with that later.

April 1 comes and goes. The pranks and fake announcements that have you second-guessing everything on April Fools Day disappear.

If you’ve ever told yourself, “I’ll back up my files tomorrow,” you’re not alone. Many others see backing up data as one of those tasks that can always wait — until suddenly it can’t.

It’s Monday morning. Coffee in hand. Laptop open. You’re ready to get moving. Then your elbow clips the mug. Time slows down just long enough for you to watch coffee spill across the keyboard and disappear into places coffee should never go.

The screen flickers.

It’s March. Your accountant is buried. Your bookkeeper is scrambling. Deadlines are looming. Emails are flying faster than anyone can keep up. Everyone’s head is down, just trying to get through the month.

This isn’t news to you. But it isn’t news to hackers either.

It’s March. Green everywhere. Shamrocks in store windows. Leprechauns guarding pots of gold at the end of the rainbow.

Luck is fun. It’s just not how well-run businesses actually operate. Because no business owner would ever say:

“Our hiring strategy is whoever walks in the door.

Spring break gets a bad reputation. College kids. Questionable decisions. Stories that start with "we thought it was a good idea at the time…"
