I accidentally spilled water on my company laptop. The hard disk can't be removed, the display isn't working, but the keyboard is still responding. I've checked the warranty, and it's valid. What are my next steps?

Honestly, don’t stress too much. Just be upfront with your company’s IT. They've definitely seen it all before! The main thing is to be honest about the spill instead of trying to cover it up. That could make things worse if they find out later.
First things first, you should definitely contact your IT department and be honest about what happened. They typically have procedures in place for situations like this. While there might be accidental damage protection, don't assume the warranty covers liquid damage. It’s best to fess up so they can advise you on the necessary steps.
Just let IT handle it. Trying to fix it yourself or hiding the truth won't do you any favors, trust me. If you’re a W2 employee, your company usually covers these kinds of damages unless your contract states otherwise. Just explain what happened. Accidents happen to the best of us!
