IT department recovers deleted files and somehow receives applause
Station #12's IT team got back from their conference and recovered a guidance upgrade everyone thought was gone. They got a standing ovation. It was their first.
Station #12, Help Desk. Ticket #4012 is closed. After nine days at a communication conference, the IT team came back, read the ticket, and fixed it in 20 minutes. It was the fridge.
Then they kept going. In a folder called "old stuff DO NOT USE," they found a guidance upgrade everyone thought had been thrown out last spring. It was fine. It just needed a reboot.
People clapped. Nobody has ever clapped for us. I didn't know what to do with my hands.
The upgrade goes back on the Mars mission. The fridge is plugged back in. The yogurt is cold again.
