OMG - now the office guy from my side job called and said they (the IT company they use) were trying to get my office computer fixed and realized now it's the hard drive that crashed and that's why I haven;t been able to connect to it. He then asked about the accounting software....I said I ASSUMED it would be on a separate drive on the main server that gets backed up regularly!! He said he wasn't sure, they are trying to figure it out. OMG! If it's not, then they are completely stupid. Who sets up a good sized company's accounting software with no way to back it up regularly and automatically???!!! I would not think the IT company they use would do something that stupid. But, stressing out waiting to hear. But, it's taking way to long for them to let me know, which is starting to worry me. I honestly don't have a clue what to do if they lost 12 years of financial data! I just can't even think about something like that or I might throw up.
That is unbelievable! Hopefully, this guy does not know what he is talking about.
ReplyDeleteOh my, you have my sincere empathy. I literally work for the US Government and have lost days due to someone months ago telling me to "turn off XYZ", so I did and for months my computer was not receiving updates. Geez. At least other than the lost work/productivity, I don't have to worry about cleaning up the mess - I know that is on your mind. Hope it turns out well.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh!!! I hope this turns out well
