i once agreed to let some web forum software delete all the tables in the target database, as part of its install. of course there were tables in that DB that i didn't want deleted. i just didn't think that any piece of software would actually delete tables from a DB if it didn't know what they were - no matter what that flashing red warning said. while it was installing, i took a trip over to a different part of my website - the part that wasn't there anymore. :( that took some fixing...

The feeling you have, looking over your source code, when you find that little catastrophic bug, and you realize that the Gold build is now 2 hours and 39 minutes into the 3 hour build process. Yes, folks, this has happened to me.

- The feeling you get when you re-install Turbo C v1.0, re-learn QBasic and write complete code on paper to revise your high-school dimploma. 6) The feeling you get when you work on your old Pentium II 350MHz for a quick project in ASP running on your PWS. 7) The feeling you get after eating too much on The Seder (Passover). Boy I shouldn't have had that extra piece of chicken... Isaac, DB Investigator

aha..ahahaha... so true.. especially if it was like a 100000 or more table. that wasnt just there, but it was there from various sources(like, information came in from different place and you had to convert it, and that took a lot of time(like, A LOT), and you didnt backup)....yeah rara avis in terris

A co-worker left a voice mail declaring her love to her lover (her boss, actually, and her lover). Unfortunately, she had called someone in Human Resources, not her lover! She didn't even listen to the announcement as to whose voice mailbox she had reached! Must have been really emotionally overwhelmed for her to do it.

a former co-worker of mine got a seires of voice mail messages from some woman who was very distraught and sounded like she had recently re-connected, but only briefly, with long-lost family after something tragic had happened. she would leave messages about how sad it all was , and about how she hoped there were no hard feelings, and how good it was to see everyone again after all that time, and that she hoped they'd call her, etc.. i guess she never really listened to the voice mail message because the guy she was calling had a different name from the guy she thought she was calling.

In our class mailing list, there was this girl who announced she was getting married. Now one other guy (classmate) was mad about her all throughout college, and even proposed to her a few times (at least 4 times I think), and she always refused him, but never gave a flat-enough no, so he persisted till the end. So some of us, rather cruelly I think now, sent a few nice mails to the list reminding this guy about his devotion to her. She sent a slightly annoyed mail to the list in reply - though it was obvious she didn't mind all that much, and maybe even felt good - girls feel good when they can reject a few guys :-) Anyway this poor fellow, mailed her a long, sentimental, mushy mail, and accidentally hit reply-all! You can imagine the rest! :-D Regards, Nish

LOL - that's really bad. A guy at work accidently sent to me and a few others an email meant for a girl who he'd apparently spent the night with. He was working through his inbox and he'd been a cc on an email about iPods of all things. I wrote back to say not to be too embarrased because I didn't even know who he was. One of the other guys who got it, sent it to the work social mailing list. Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++

The feeling I got after backing up all my code to DVD before reinstalling my notebook, and finding the DVDs were empty. Luckily, I only formatted my C partition, I only lost a couple of things, most of the important stuff was on D:, I just did a total backup 'just in case'. The feeling I got years ago when totally nuking my system when I copied all my imporant files to one drive, using move instead of copy so I could keep track, then accidentally formatting that drive in FDISK, instead of the one I wanted to.

Back to my trainingship time, worked a couple of days on a sensational (!) presentation that my boss wanted to show to some other bosses. Two hours before the presentation, I duck myself to put a CD into the burner to make a backup of all my efforts (PC was under my desk), my boss comes behind me to ask "Hey, is everything ready ?", surprised, I turned my chair in a hasty movement, my knee hits the PC which falls over : Hard disk died, everything lost. :(( Never experienced more painful loss. Almost the same happened to a collegue of mine, who wanted to fine-tune a presentation software, under UNIX, and wrongly called twice a program that made a simultaneous access on the same file : Hard disk died. ~RaGE();
