I love that the heat pipe is bent and they ripped a cap lid off by the socket, too. It's like they tried to take a photo of an inept worker but they were inept at being inept 😂

How else are you supposed to remove the CPU?

Anyway, ineptitude can be shown more subtly with some actual mistakes people make:

Bent CPU pins from forceful insertion the wrong way.
Ripped wires off a connector by not releasing the lock first.
Prying off a fan’s blade rather than unscrewing its frame.
HDD open in an obviously unclean environment, scratches on platter.
Using an obviously wrong (wood) screw.
Connector tabs broken off, cable is now held in with inappropriate amounts of clear tape
Prying something that should obviously slide away in another direction, visible PCB bending.
Burning a flat plastic cable while attempting to solder it.
Using glue instead of solder

That's not a mistake people actually make. I picked some realistic, visible ones.
