Wasted Effort

I had worked on a project for three hours, and then I went to the human resource office because someone out there needed my help. When I got back, my boss told me to close my application because he'll continue with it. I closed it. After five minutes my boss e-mailed me stating "Did you worked on this project? As I can see, it's still as is to what was with yesterday's."

I was shocked. It's like I programmed the codes, and did documentations on it. ALL were wasted. Again another blooper galore that I had made in the office. And then I shifted in a sheer-frustrated mode. I received an e-mail again in which it requires me to call my boss. So I got a phone and dialled my boss's number.

We chatted, and I raised to him my concerns. I was wondering if he saw me working on the project. All I know is that he would really know if I am in my workstation or not by just looking at the surveillance camera (we had it installed last week). To my dismay, I never had known that someone out there opened the project that I made. So it's like that when I closed the project, the other application's still open and that when he/she closes it, since he/she's the last one then he/she will have the last write on the file. The project had never been touched, so as they closed it, it was still like yesterday's interface.

Wasted effort, but at least I know how would someone feel if it comes.
