Yep, and in certain in house situations it's best to keep a backup around for ~13 months in case there's an obscure business process that only gets done once a year. (I'm aware that some people reading that sentence are going to go wtf at the idea that that's anybody's problem except whoever didn't tell you said business process even existed, but if it's a sufficiently critical finance or HR thing it tends to rapidly become everybody's problem so I like to have options)

Agree absolutely wrt complacency, I believe I asked for less than a week because I actively preferred a situation where I had to get on it immediately.
