What Keeps You Up at Night?

I was having a particularly restless night trying to sleep last night. I was trying to figure out why I was having such a hard time sleeping and nothing immediately came to mind. My wife suggested that the 98 degree daytime temperature with a sausage and pepperoni pizza chaser probably had a lot to do with it. But I contend it had more to do with a couple of issues at work. At this point, I’ll spare you the details.

This got me thinking about what keeps our customers up at night? I can imagine many of the Notes developers and admins we work with can count on the old standby “too much to do with too few resources”. But at least the deadlines are unrealistic! I would also imagine that some suffer from the challenge of having responsibility without the authority. At least from our experience, that seems to be very popular, especially among larger customers.

I can also imagine that Notes developers worry about getting that testy little bit of critical LotusScript to work properly. Similarly, Notes administrators probably have concerns about known security holes in applications that cannot get plugged by any apparent means.

What about you? What keeps you up at night? Fear of failing an audit? Fear of never getting caught up? Fear of getting caught up? There must be something. I’d love to hear from you.

1 - I dont know how to measure a function points in Lotus Notes. I know that Java FP are about 14 PH. As Notes is not a broadly known technology I can manage to "invent" FPs.

Is there any way to find out market FPs?
