well here's a good story.
my cluey, computer literate, sister worked for wastpac in the city a
number of years ago as a manager before the workstations were all
networked. they also had a lot of apple macs. she had all her work on
her mac along with all the other manager types. anyway one lunchtime
someone wandered in off the street and started unplugging the macs one
by one and walking off. they got away with about a dozen - including my
sisters. security was not that tight back then.
when all the managers came back they found that all their computers,
along with all their data, gone. and a general meeting for all of them
was scheduled that afternoon and they had to give presentations. no need
to say they all started panicking and swearing - except my sister, the
only female.
having been bitten before with data loss, she had got into the habit of
copying all her current stuff onto a floppy and throwing the floppy into
the drawer! she then calmly collected her floppy and went over to
another mac and printed off her talk. she was the only one who gave a
presentation that afternoon...
she made it quite high in westpac.
