So, I'm attempting to take an on-line course... the fun does not seem to be found anywhere yet... Minor word of warning to always check your submissions before hitting 'reply' or 'submit'....

Just got done writing a short 3page paper on Kate Chopin's The Awakening and was seconds from turning in the paper via the online web portal... Short note to the professor (she's been very kind and a good teacher so far) and I'm blindly looking over my notes while I think 'did I save this in .rtf format or not' and I just figure bleh submit it, be done, take dog for walk, start getting dinner ready before the wife gets home...

"Upload Attachment"

"Browse"

--type 'th' as the document is saved as "The Awakening - Written Assignment"

"Submit"

AAAAGH wait what folder was I in noooooooooo

It's now 2 hours later and I've been able to get the document submission removed from the system, thankfully the professor has not even logged in yet. Hopefully I won't get an email tonight....

Here's what got uploaded **THIS LINK IS NSFW**

Thus, why you keep that stuff in a folder you don't save word documents in often.

one of the many things i never got used to, not sure if it's win7 or what but defaulting to whatever 'last' directory I was using/browsing, such fun. :?
