"Hi Andrew. I got my boyfriend to take it to Pfizer, but their IT
department couldn't fix it. Could you take a look at it?"
She seemed fairly impressed when I recovered a wedge of files from it.

Dear Pfizer,
Recently one of our staff had her damaged hard drive looked over
informally by your IT department who were unable to recover any
information from it. I have just pulled a wedge of files from it. Are you
hiring?

Heheheh. Nice idea...
...unfortunately, there is a clause in my contract of employment that
specifically prohibits exactly this. o_O
I do wonder though - how hard did they actually try? I'm guessing not
very hard. If I could find Test Disk in a few minutes with Google and
get data back despite the minimalistic user manual, the full mite of a
global corporation like Pfizer should surely make very short work of it.
If they actually cared.

It's a well-known fact that every global corporation has a secret room
buried under its headquarters, where it keeps elephant-sized,
allergy-causing parasitic arachnids for such purposes as recovering computer
data;

Elephant-sized, allergy-causing parasitic arachnids?
So... that's your next Zazzle offering?

Heh, and I used to go by the nick "Arachnid" as well... But then I found
that nobody IRL could pronounce it.

Lol, just caught up with this thread. Well, good on you*. I know what
it's like going through a pile of files that you 'might' want to recover
from an image created by the free FileRecovery prog.
*Mate, make that move to a better paid job. You're worth more than you're
getting. Stuff the rent or buying somewhere for now - I'd live in my car if
I had to. Seriously.
