    When we get rid of old equipment at work, I don't even bother to clean the drives. The only "sensitive" application is our database. With that, there's only an .exe file (plus some drivers) on the hard drive. The actual data is kept safely on the server--without it, the database won't even load. However, I do check for spreadsheets and other reports...since some of our (l)users can't figure out how to save things to the server

    Anyway, with the data removed, the old computers are either scrapped, or repaired and donated to charities.

      I know this is going to be fun, if only for those of us only reading this.

      Gnawed off arm to escape, but they made me stay anyway. Heartless bastards.
      And now you have to do the job with one arm? They really are heartless bastards. How will you hold your book and turn the page at the same time?

        Heh. High praise for something I threw together out of soul-crushing boredom.

        Boss was off or in meetings most of the week, so I had to be around to handle any major issues. Sorry to those looking for updates. Gomen.


        Day 6 7 too many

        Back on the front today. Leave was bad. Village girl turned out to be one of them. A dirty dustbunny sympathizer. Tried to kill me, but I killed her with the Dyson Technique. Is no one safe?

        As expected, more dustbunnies than when I left. They came at me in waves. Animating once-proud machines, no little more than dustbunny-filled zombies. I burned them. Burned them all in the cleansing flames. Command believes I may have gone too far, but they don't know the dustbunnies. Can't know the truth. More organised than we ever imagined. I'm down ten machines now. Ten machines that will never run through the night again. Ten loyal machines that did all that was asked of them. Ten machines that will never run again.

        Damned dirty dustbunnies.

            ....You know what you need for Dust Bunnies?.... A Ferret Army.... Dust bunnies are a Ferrets favorite thing to destroy.... .... or..... roll in..... more so.....either way.... the job gets done....

            Cant tell you how many times I've let those little Fuzzy carpet Sharks run rampant instead of dusting..... Good bath after and all your dust bunny problems go down the drain.... literally. .... though I promise nothing in regards to the Ferrets NOT chewing on power cords or turning computer towers into their own personal play boxes........


            *pat pat* Stay strong man! They may be well organized but we have better technology!

                Switch bugs for dustbunnies and marines for machines, and that sounds like an update from the front lines in Starship Troopers.

                  We don't have dustbunnies where I work. Some of our equipment has been neglected so long...that we have dust *elephants* Truly noble beasts they are!
