After a computer virus took hold of my computer yesterday I lost 4-5 hours trying to fix it myself. Our IT guy came in and took 45 minutes to have the virus removed. Which leads me to the point of my story, getting someone to fix whatever you need fixed is worth EVERY penny as long as it gets fixed and doesn’t get dragged out for days. This logic really can be applied to everything we do ... Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | The Elevator Radio Show: ERS-2010-06-16

Back from a great time at the Elevator U conference at Purdue University all I can say is those guys and gals know how to have a great time.
