This is a photo my husband took of a table that my cousin borrowed. You see, my mom had gone to Louisiana for a family reunion and made arrangements to pick up a few things my cousin had borrowed while she lived here in Texas. There was a large corner table/desk in particular that I was really looking forward to getting back. After my cousin said my mom could swing by and pick it up, my mom asked if my cousin wouldn't mind "unscrewing the legs" and putting the "screws in a ziplock" so that the large table would more easily fit in my mom's giant car...
This small heap of wood is what my mom was handed...with one hand incidentally, since the top of this table is no more than a foot square.
So, at what point with instructions to unscrew the legs of a large table & save the screws in a ziplock, all for the purposes of fitting the table into a huge car, does a person of average intelligence realize any of the following?? A: these legs are not screwed on, and therefore probably not designed to be removed, B: this table would easily fit in a Smart Car as is, much less my mom's huge Cadillac, C: this is not the right table, or D: if the legs and center shelf are removed from this antique side table, it will will be completely and irrevocably destroyed.
The individual who mindlessly destroyed this table by forcibly ripping off ALL FOUR legs, as if one couldn't tell after struggling to rip off the first one that maybe they weren't designed to be removed, is clearly and indefensibly a bona fide idiot. Welcome to Jackson Parish, ladies and gentleman.
