Damn Computers

Greetings Hellions,

So here it is a week after my computer took a crap and I still do not have the damn thing back. Talk about feeling completely out of touch with the world. I only have access to a computer when I come in for my shift and damn it sucks. I never realized how much I used it until it was gone.

I have to say this has been the biggest pain in the ass I have had to deal with in a long time. First of all if you buy a Sony computer make sure you do the back up immediately. Who is the brainchild that decided we shouldn't get a recovery disc with our systems anymore? I mean it costs what a measely couple bucks for them to drop them in the box? Not to mention the customer service I have received from this major retail chain has been pretty sh*tty except from one dude. I will call him Ryan. Thanks dude.

I love how they can't recover any of my hard drive unless I have it sent out to their main office and spend a minimum of $250. Here is the kicker they can definitely get my info back, but I don't have the option of saying F it if I think the price is to much..What is going on these days? Since when is the customer not right? Not to mention that they initially wanted me to BUY back my dead hard drive. I think not.

Now I am praying for the best here and that our friends at PC Perfect can get some of my info for me. They will be nothing less than a god if they can recover the 4 or 5 folders of stuff I need.

Yes I should have had a back up of these folders and I thought I did, but for the life of me I can't figure out why I never did. I am still kicking myself for that.

Hopefully I will have some great news on Tuesday afternoon from PC Perfect. Meanwhile I certainly hope the dude who waited on me yesterday at the retail chain isn't working. I must say he was quite the A-Hole. I never knew it took more than 8 hours to put a new operating system on my laptop. Damn computers.
