Our CFO sent a panicked Slack message saying we're at 98% capacity on our enterprise cloud storage.
She asked if we were experiencing catastrophic data bloat from the new marketing push.
We aren't.
We're experiencing the sheer weight of my personal media empire.
I'm currently hosting a 40-terabyte Plex server on the company mainframe.
I have every single episode of Seinfeld rendered in uncompressed 4K resolution.
I told her our storage is full because of an aggressive database mirroring protocol required for GDPR compliance.
I said if we delete anything, we risk triggering a cascading latency collapse across our entire European market.
We don't even have a European market.
She immediately approved a $120K budget increase to expand our AWS storage buckets.
I thanked her for prioritizing our data sovereignty.
I'm going to use the new servers to host a private Classic World of Warcraft realm.
