Shark Tank: You're just encouraging them

User rushes up to tech support pilot fish first thing in the morning.

"You have to help me find the file I was working on yesterday!" user cries. OK, says fish, what's the name of the file? "I don't know," says user.

Hmm, says fish. This is the job you were working on all day yesterday, right?

"Yes."

OK, says fish, hoping she won't have to sift through all files that were changed yesterday. Now can you give me anymore clues about the missing file? Why do you think I should be able to find it?

"Well, you were with me when I received it by e-mail from my boss yesterday."

Ah, fish says, that's the information that your boss wanted you to enter onto the server calendar, right?

"Yes."

Did you check the e-mail from your boss to see if the file is still attached? Sighs fish, "It was. And of course I was seen as saving the day."
