OP here, the company does all the timekeeping online. The server went down and they were only able to restore it back to the end of November. I'll be keeping my own copy of hours from now on.

All the advice to keep copies isn't that great in hindsight lol. Of course OP realises now that copies would be great. OP your life sucks. I hope you can make an educated guess on your hours and feel satisfied in your hours and pay. Not cool for you though.
Why isn't that stuff computerized??
I keep one of those day planners on me and write down what time I clock in and clock out, that way I can compare it to my paystub. Always helps to keep a personal copy.
Well now you can religiously take pixxx of them too.
If it's their **** up they should pay you as if you were full time all those three weeks.
When I used to have to fill out time cards I had my own ledger where I kept track of my tasks and time. I then transferred that to the company time card. Perhaps you should start religiously doing this. (There's even apps for this)

That's a good idea, although I hope something like that doesn't happen again!
The last place I worked for, we had to do our own time sheets also and I always saved them to a jump drive in case it was miraculously lost
over estimate your hours. a)they don't have proof otherwise and b) it's their fault and your inconvenience

Ever heard of the Internet? You're company should try storing documents on it
It's strange that they don't keep at least one other copy if they're sticking to paper time sheets. Take a photo of your sheets and keep it on your phone in case this happens again. It may also be in your (and your company's) best interest to suggest an online scheduling system like Hot Schedules or something if budgeting allows.
