Let's just say that all of our KPI data for the last 10 years was temporarily lost. IT was able to retrieve all of the lost data, along with way too much personal info on the employee. Said employee is now blocked from the shared drive completely.
To elaborate, we are a over 200 year old Japanese based company, with facilities in the U.S., Japan and Europe. The entire company uses this shared drive. When it became known that the reason none of us could access the drive, then to find out it was an American employee, then to find out it was an employee at our facility......yeah, things turned dark fast.

Holy shit! Haha. Glad IT recovered all that data. He must've felt like a real tool after that incident. Is this a trading company? Just curious.
