      Yeah, anybody in IT knows this is bullshit. I guarantee these people had several holes in their processes, didn’t properly back things up, and have been accidentally losing data for YEARS. Somebody recently noticed it, so they decided to blame a cat.

      I’d wager on manager that decided to do something on the server.
