Remember when the office printer was the biggest problem?
Back in my first data entry job in Omaha, the main server crashed right before a quarterly report was due. It was 2 PM on a Thursday, and the whole floor went quiet. My manager just looked at me and said, 'Figure it out.' I spent the next three hours manually cross-referencing paper backups with the last saved digital files. We got the report out, but it was all handwritten totals. Anyone else have a tech fail that sent you back to the stone age?
