All developers manage at one time or another during their career to accidentally delete important data, and it is at those moments when you find out if there is a backup strategy in place :) I feel for the tech dude at the Alaska Department of Revenue doing routine reformatting of hard disks:
While doing routine maintenance work, the technician accidentally deleted applicant information for an oil-funded account — one of Alaska residents' biggest perks — and mistakenly reformatted the backup drive, as well...
And the only backup was the paperwork itself — stored in more than 300 cardboard boxes.
