I Think You Have Stumbled Upon the Answer

[Dips]

An email exchange, paraphrased:

SC: Your software has a problem. I saved a file and it disappeared. I need to know that it won't happen again.

Me: Can I get your serial number, please?

SC: It's xxxxxxxx. A lot of people are having this problem since the server ran out of space. Do you think it could be related?

Oh my. It sounds like a call someone from the old office I worked in would make. Of course, they had the servers in TX but the helpdesk in Chicago - which made no sense. And they royally screwed up transfering files on the servers like 3 different times. And we were down for two weeks b/c they had screwed it up so bad - and by "they" I really mean the corporate idiots who decided it had to be done the way it was and very quickly - which in turn led to it being done very badly.

But I felt for the poor helpdesk - being no where near the servers, there were a lot of issues they couldn't handle. And there were a lot of idiots in the office that did things like that - the server is out of space.... why can't I save?
