In this particular gig I was carrying a laptop around, so the only people who ever had hands on were the company's IT. In the gigs I do now, I've been using my own equipment.

Did that company survive long with that situation going on?

I tried working for a company with that problem and discovered I could accomplish nothing at all. Turns out one of the "remaining" people was busy sabotaging the computers that were being used by the contractors. I lasted two weeks. One my last day I'd found someone from another department to look at my machine, and he said, "This machine's hosed! No wonder you can't do anything," but by then it was too late.
