I kinda accidentally ran over my Laptop...with my Car...
"Have you tried turning it Off and on Again?"

It was a Wednesday if I recall correctly.
I was managing some slack messages. A Female Employee approached me and proceeds to place a mangled Macbook on my desk.
“I need a new laptop”, she says.
“Uh, What Happened?” I replied, stunned in disbelief how this small woman was able to bend her laptop almost in half in a very low angle V shape.
“I kinda ran over my Laptop” she explained.
“You…ran over your laptop, with your car?” I said in an even more confused tone.
I stare in disbelief as she recounts her story.
As she was about to get into the car in her driveway, she gets a phone call.
She placed the laptop on top of her car to immediately answer the call she had been waiting for.
Eventually the call ended with her getting into the car and forgetting her laptop was on top of her car.
She then begins to back out of her sloped driveway
The laptop ends up sliding behind her car, she does not notice this for some reason and then proceeds to back over the laptop that had slid down behind her tire.
I had nothing to say, so I managed to find a spare used laptop she could use luckily all her documents were backed up on Google Drive.
The Moral of this story is that no matter how crazy things in your life may get, I doubt you’ll get to the level of managing to run over your own laptop. You’re doing alright, Carry on!
2 Ideas From Me
I want an AI Digital Weight Scale that gives me good vibes and congratulations when I lose weight or my vitals seem healthier. Maybe even an optional add on would be an AI drill sergeant yelling at me if it can tell I haven’t been going to the gym.
Give me a Handyman Monthly Subscription where he can come out and do things for me around my house but actually show me the right way to do them and let me just borrow his tools instead of me having to go to Home Depot 3 times that day because I didn’t have the right tools for this insane project my wife wants done before the end of the weekend.
