icehut Your friend should have guided you through a repair install first. Failing that, an in-situ install. Either method would've saved losing your files. You were given the easy solution.

icehut Assign each uploaded resume a unique filename. This will get around the problem of everyone sending files with the same filename. In a separate table, store the original filename and map the new filename. Add user/owner of the uploaded file to that table...

icehut Did they not get the memo that beggars can't be choosers? That's almost as bad as giving someone a gift and then be told that they don't want it because it's not what they want. There's no pleasing some people. Just don't bother...

icehut just a couple of ideas here... calendars and place mats with your personalized message. Items that should have a longer shelf life than a simple card which the recipient may reuse on a daily basis.

icehut Maybe his way of weeding out the thief is to confront each of his staff individually and accuse each of stealing. It might not be that he's accusing you specifically, but that he's accusing everyone he sees as suspects. The worst thing for you to do now is...
