Silly Mistakes That Ended up Costing a Lot

Keep Your Valuables Away From the Cable Guy

The next time you have a cable guy come to your house (or any other repair person, for that matter), make sure your valuables are extremely far away. And not because they might get stolen, but because a really long drill bit could accidently break them. This cable guy was able to drill a hole through the side of the house, through a guitar case, and into the Martin HD-28V.

At first, it looked like the longest drill bit in the world, but shortly it turned into one of the saddest ones. With just one drill, this person's costly instrument was ruined.

The Dangling Phone

It's great to have emergency chargers. You can't always find a charging port or an outlet, but if you have an emergency charger with you, you'll know you have a backup. They plugged their phone into the charger and then somehow closed the door over the cord, leaving the phone hanging out of the car door. How the phone is still hooked is a puzzle. If someone has been driving for a while without even realizing that their phone has been hanging out of the door for a long time, they are clearly not extremely addicted to it.
