>After working as a mover
I remember being a mover when i was 16 or 17 or so. The company had us do oddball jobs for money. There was a group that did an office cleanout in the city, which i wasnt part of i was on cardboard pressing duty, but i was in the movers warehouse when they came back to help unload the truck.

Along with heavy as fuck executive furniture (which was considered trash) there were giant bins of artwork also considered trash, at least 50 framed pieces that my coworkers had a blast snapping in half, using as target practice with sheets of metal, etc...

My company was usually stingy, making you purchase old refrigerators that would otherwise get thrown away but they let me keep this one piece of artwork i pulled away for free.

ended up being a salvador dali lithograph and it was appraised that year (2012?) for $5k and ive held onto it to this day. Sometimes i wonder what value people put up just to look nice and then just dont give a fuck about. Like, i couldnt have chosen "the right" art out of about 50 getting smashed up, that office cleanout probably destroyed over $100k and they didnt give a fuck
