= The Deluxe Replication Disaster of 2019 =

The Deluxe Replication Disaster of 2019, also referred to as the Deluxe Replication Perfect Storm, was a catastrophic series of events starting on March 29th and ending on April 2nd 2019 which resulted in four replication workers being critically injured and one escaping alive with minor injuries.

Overview
On March 29th at 10:57 pm Jeigh Prince reported a complete timeout occurred on one of the two main replication racks. Replify 2 would not read any drives and was frozen in a critical stasis. Jeigh was unable to revive the system, so he was only able to launch half the usual amount of trailers, and he went home defeated after submitting an emergency service ticket to replify support's online portal.

The next morning on March 30th Joelbert Caldarola arrived at Deluxe and immediately suffered a 50% loss in productivity as a result of the replify 2 machine being inactive the entire night. Despite the issue he continued utilizing the other available replication machines to counteract the delay in production. Halfway through his shift replify support finally managed to get the replify 2 rack working again.

At 3:17 pm the same day Joel reported a new issue. All drives were experiencing complete failures during validation. Upon reaching out to the Deluxe trailer team in Burbank, the team found a bad trailer on the trailer packages, and the decision was made on the evening of March 31st to resend the content and start replication from scratch. All the work Joelbert did on Saturday and Sunday was for nothing, and the department became poised on the brink of disaster.

On March 31st 11:00 pm Derrick arrived at Deluxe to begin the daunting task of replicating 384 drives from scratch which were expected to ship the very next day.

On April 1st at 4:30 am Joelbert escaped and abandoned Deluxe, fleeing to Orlando Florida. As a result the rest of the department had to brace themselves against the upcoming disaster while also being shorthanded.

At 7:30 am Daniel Wellwood arrived at Deluxe 30 minutes late, adding to the already insurmountable setback affecting the department. George Rigas, the department shipper who normally shows up at 7 am, is also nowhere to be seen.

At 8:30 am the replication supervisor Dylan Lewis arrived on the scene, and received confirmation from department manager Kevin Xuereb that George is indeed sick and would not be showing up to work. With this last bit of information, complete disaster had arrived. Daniel was forced to cover shipping, and with Joelbert escaped to Florida Dylan was left to deal with the situation alone.

Aftermath
At approximately 10:00 am April 2nd the last of the trailer drives were replicated and shipped, and the storm finally passed. Jeigh, Derrick, Daniel, and Dylan, having been mentally assaulted by the ordeal, suffered critical injuries as a result of the disaster. Joelbert who escaped shortly before the brunt of the disaster took place survived with minor injuries, but faced backlash from his coworkers for having abandoned them.
