Does my employer really need to know how I get to work?

[sbj405]

We are prepping for a COOP drill (aka rehearsed hysteria) and we were asked to provide our method of transportation. Maybe I'm just paranoid, but where does the line get drawn.

1. well

first, what's a COOP drill?

If it's something that involves getting everyone to work as soon as possible, then transportation could come into it. What take 30 minutes to drive could take 2 hours by bus, etc.

2. Continuity of Operations Plan

so, yes. but i'm a peon and in the event of "the big one" i do believe I'll be asked to stay out of the way.

This is a follow up to the SIP (shelter in place) drill where (I swear I'm not making this up) we practiced duct taping plastic sheeting over the doors and vents.

4. Tell then you are beamed by Scotty every morning.

5. Well disaster recovery

is an important aspect of running a business. And along with that would be how employees would get in touch with each other in a community emergency.

Still, with the duct tape and the plastic sheeting, it seems to me your employers could use a good disaster recovery consultant. The question of "how you, sbj405, get to work everyday?" is the least of their problems.
