Ever think you got it unscrewed and accidentally yank the standoff from the PCB?

I work in tech support. I haven't done this, but a user I've worked with absolutely has. I have a photo around here somewhere, if I recall correctly he actually ripped the wires out of the cable lmao!

Edit: the picture. Guess it wasn't wires out of the cable hah.
