Get help
If you remember nothing else in this training, remember this next part.
One simple rule.
Email for today.
Call for now.
For everyday issues that aren’t critical: “I’d like help with this today or early tomorrow.”
When something is critical and you need help immediately, don’t email. Call and tell us it’s an emergency.
For emergencies, we don’t keep you waiting.
Applies to critical (P1) emergencies. The average is measured, not a quota · 33-min avg first response in 2026.
After hours? Still covered.
Someone on your team is always on call after hours and weekends, with the same one-hour commitment. They step out of dinner or a movie to get you help, whether it’s 5 AM or Saturday morning.
We just ask that after-hours calls be true emergencies.
If it can wait, email help@britecity.com.
If it gets urgent, call.
Emailed at 9 AM and the issue just got critical? Pick up the phone. Let us know the priority has gone up and you need someone to reach back out ASAP.
A quick call instantly re-prioritizes what you already sent in.
You email help@britecity.com, a ticket opens.
It just became critical. Everything stopped.

Sign out or restart weekly.
Many security updates and patches only finish installing on a restart. A machine that’s never restarted is one that’s falling behind on protection.
What is phishing?
Criminals impersonate a trusted source (your bank, Microsoft, a vendor, even us) to steal credentials, money, or data. It works because it exploits human behavior, not just technology.
Attackers manufacture urgency, impersonate authority, and exploit trust: triggers your brain is wired to react to.
Technology alone can’t stop it. Awareness is your strongest defense.
