Because my suggestion they have a spare ADSL connection for out of channel stuff was an unnecessary expense... Til he broke the firewall knocked a bunch of folks offline across a huge physical site and locked himself out of everything. The spare line got fitted the next month. |

At the largest place I did have prod creds for everything because sometimes they are necessary and I had the seniority (sometimes you do need them in a "oh crap" scenario). They where all setup on a second account in my work Mac which had a danger will Robinson wallpaper because I know myself, far far too easy to mentally fat finger when you have two sets of creds. |
