I accidentally scrapped my personal computer.

Long story short-

Every few days I create a pile of stuff for my father in law to breakdown and process. Most of it is stuff that I have picked up, electronics, vcrs, computers, stereo equipment, ect. He's out of work, so I make him a little extra money by letting him process it.

My wife HATES scrap stuff in the house. So if I leave anything around, she immediately picks it up and takes it to the garage. I happened to leave one of my personal computers in the backroom laying on the floor. Sure as hell, she grabbed it and took it out to the garage and set it in the pile that my father in law was scrapping.

I come home from work, and go to get on my computer. Computer is missing. Ask Wife. Wife says she took it to garage. Go to garage and ask father in law. It was on top of the scrap pile so it is now sitting in a million pieces in bins all over the garage.



The Bad: I scrapped my own computer, that I have used daily for a year.

The Good: I recovered the hard drive, and have an excuse to buy a brand new computer.

Scrapper Life Fail.
