The last place I worked was disorganised for a long time, so I maintained my own backups. As did several others, including the boss.
Problem with that was it took time that we should have spent doing our real jobs, and it's amazing that only a small amount of unimportant stuff was lost.
Eventually, we got ourselves a proper systems administrator. Did he make a difference, or what?!
With a formal backup policy, and offsite backups, we could relax, and I could free up quite a lot of disk space on my home PC.
