Do you backup?
It’s been hell of 2 weeks and boy… my eye bags are almost on par with the size of a ballon. not mentioning the volcano breakouts.
Hey you look like shit woman”
Can you please go home now before you collapse right here?”
 Oh my what happened to you?”
I’m probably already immuned to remarks like these, which I usually reply with a wry smile.
I must detest. I am in fact, damn excited about my work.

The short tale below illustrates a little more on one of the many dramas of late…
Say you’ve been working on a project, so hard that over weeks of sleepless nights to finally come up piece a proposal which you glee discreetly. Then you were waiting for that moment to share with your peers … …
But you’ve missed out a basic but crucial step.You forgot to backup.
That fateful morning, my laptop decided not to reboot itself. All it did was showed a brutal msg telling me ‘Hard disk error.’ The IT folks spent two hours to salvage but to no avail( the ITG did their best, they even put the disk into a freezer & foiled it). It was certified. Of all times it has chosen to lay rest at this moment. Now all your data’s lost. Everything that you’ve worked is gone. And I mean everything that I’ve been putting together in the past four months.
It was spectacular.  It’s worst than missing a very important flight. They gave me a new hdd with an extra 10gb capacity. So that’s a brownie point they claimed. Actually coming to think of it I didn’t even have the time to grieve over my lost data coz I had only a few hours to redo my deck of slides ( which includes retrieving all the data points that you’ve collected from hundred various sources in the past weekssss if not months).
At 6pm sharp, the management team arrived punctually. My supportive peers were giving me the supportive eye contacts. I did what I’ve got to do and two hours later, Viola!
Happy. Went home around 11pm to mourn my loss
