Today, I was at school deleting documents I no longer needed on my school account. After clicking empty trash can, I saw a final paper on political science deleted. I'm not in political science, and I wasn't deleting files on my account. FML

Might wanna find out whose stuff you were deleting and find someone who can help you recover it.

You might have heard of this thing called empaty. Some people have it.

Can't wait to see the FML "who deleted all my files"

As long as ur not caught go they the year happy

You should definitely tell the IT dept. Even if you do it anonymously. The main thing is time may be of the essence and you don't want this on your concience. Also YDI.

You just screwed someone over and became their worst enemy.

I don't even know how you didn't realize it sooner since all the file names would've been different from the ones you saved... YDI, but it also sucks.

Hopefully they should have backed it up somewhere as someone else said, and speak to IT, might be recoverable. They may have handed it in already. It sucks for both of you :/ mistakes happen

How did you not realize when going through the files that they didn't belong to you? How did you not notice the political science paper at any point before deleting it? Despite your inattention, hopefully the student files are backed up for cases like these. call the head of IT/Technology at your school as soon as possible

There are programs you can download to recover deleted files, you could try that
