Im guessing you didnt save it on your computer at home?

 

[waffleironhead]

Email ftw? Back-up your back-up's back-up.

 

[Atomic Playboy]

How long was it? Anything less than 5 pages will be real easy to recreate (you just wrote it after all). Now if it was a doctoral thesis, I would cry for you Argentina.

 

[Brainonska511]

Why didn't you save it in more than one place?

 

[Capt Caveman]

Did your dog eat it?

 

[Chronoshock]

Or email it to yourself?

As far as losing the usb stick, at least you don't have it on a keychain like I do, then you'd also have lost your house keys

Thats not as as bad as losing a 15 page term paper because the school thought it would be smart to make some accounts default to the "Temp" folder in the "Save As" option.

They also thought it would be smart to delete the temp folder every time you log off.

Got a B on it because my teacher has a policy of putting the Grade 1 letter grade lower than the actual grade for every day late.

So you didn't actually check where you saved it. Your fault.

Hell, there was no reason for it to default to the "Temp" Folder. I didn't check because it ALWAYS goes to the "My Documents" folder until some tech decided to mess around with the network and user accounts. One of my friends lost the ability to save or delete anything on his comp. Another friend lost his account completely.

Yeah, always does, just like the time you lost your term paper.
