    Just because I am a scrapper, doesn't mean I am dumb.

    I finally found the time to go in and speak with the IT company that I had picking from their dumpster. They have no problem with me picking, then I suggested a rolling bin to put inside. The tech guy told me no, because their vendors want everything sent back for data scrubbing. REALLY! Everything. I said that was fine for hard drives, but you throw out RAM, nic cards, keyboards, wire and so much more. I told him I can recycle plastic and styrofoam that they throw out but nothing was intriguing him. I gave up and will plan to return another day.

    I went to college, had completed my CCNA and get to fix the computers at work which isn't even my job. Data scrubbing, come on. He could of come up with something better than that.



    Next day I found a lithium laptop battery, ram and printers in the dumpster.
