Oh no!!!
Wednesday, 4 February 2009
I did a monthly report on marketing for my company for the past few weeks.
I have compiled, did page numbering, inserted page breaks, did a full write up and inserted some marketing pictures.
Yay! I screamed in my heart.
I feel contented to see the completion of my report.
Next thing I need to do was to print out the report in the office first thing in the morning.
I need to submit the report by 10am.
So, I saved my file and gone to bed.
The next morning, I switched on my computer to print the report.
I double clicked on the file I intended to print.
Then, there was a pop up message saying that "No filename found."
I almost choked on my fried noodles when I saw it.
I tried everything to retrieve the report.
I googled "How to retrieve lost file?"
None of the findings could helped me.
I was sweating like mad.
In addition to that, my boss wanted to see the report!
I just said "In a minute, boss."
My eyes were staring at the screen hoping that a miracle will ensued.
But nope, click here and everywhere.
Nothing.
The worst thing was it was nearly 10am and there was no report in sight.
With a heavy heart, I told my boss about the "episodes" I had earlier.
Oh yeah, he was mad and thank goodness, he gave me a day to finish the report.
By hook or by crook!
To let out my frustration, I sent an entry to Data Loss Horror Stories.
