Long Day at work

Bad day at work. The network has been flakey and the day after, one of the hard drives of our main server died. Argh. My coworker installed another server from scratch while another one moved our web data onto a new machine. I made some temp files for the web server since some of the scripts were broken, and I was also constantly answering phone calls about why the server is down. It wasn’t until 7pm until we got the main server up and running. The hours after work, we edited code to make it look like it did before. One thing I’m bummed about is that my work from the day before was lost since the backups didn’t work. Such bad timing too! *sigh* Anyways… it was a long day!!

    I suggest you use a source code repository, like cvs, visual source safe, pvcs, etc..

    it always sucks to lose a day worth of work – and having your source code, not only on your development machine, production machine, and in source control is a good counter-point to also using your current backup scheme.

    good luck avoiding lost work in the future!
