Dig a hole in the back yard...

My work computer has died. D-I-E-D. It is deader than a dead thing. The new guy in the office, who used to work in tech support has tried his darndest, but the hard drive is toast. I've got my mom's laptop with me so I can at least pretend to work until the new CPU comes in.

It's weird. My computer was the workhorse for the company. I was on it every day, almost all day, and now that it's gone, even though I have access to other computers, and I'm getting a new one, it almost feels like a limb is gone. You served me well for five long years, work computer. I salute you.

Poor dear, can you save the files??

[saone77.livejournal.com]

Nope. *twitch*

Luckily, I did have a back-up disk, I just hadn't, you know, used it for a while.

Considering I have yet to scream, or throw anything, I think I'm handling this rather well...

Since your computer is gone, maybe you should use it to release your anger.

Oh how sad . . . it's like losing a really good friend.

Will you be able to retrieve all your "workhorse" work??? I hope everything's not lost even though there's been a death in the family!!!

And you're being very spoiled this year aren't you . . . new copier . . . new computer . . . *grins*

*hugs*

I've got a back-up disk, but I hadn't updated it in a while (whoops). And, luckily a lot of things, like the company email, are web based, so no worries on that front. Whew.

And you're being very spoiled this year aren't you . . . new copier . . . new computer . . .

This month is making up for the past 5 1/2 years. ;)
