Always Back Up Your Data
I work for a small tec company. My boss calls me on Monday morning and I think, this is early for him… He has the worst tone of voice and tells me we need to talk. I need to meet him in the board room.
Uh-oh. So I meet him. The developer screwed something up during the data migration and dumped our tables last night (see: lost our data).
We lost all of our user data – 40,000 people. Aaand we don’t have a back up… One of the worst weeks of my life. And yet, nobody got fired. Story credit: Reddit / deltanjmusic
