Accidentally deleted an entire column in a police department's evidence database early in my career 😬

Thankfully, it only contained filepaths that could be reconstructed via a script. But I was sweating 12+1 bullets. Spent two days rebuilding that.

And if you couldn't reconstruct, you still had backups, right? ..... right?!
