[Dannyg8810]

so the other day i was install 2 400v commando sockets and after I'd finished testing my modular interchangeable bit and handle no were to be seen or found out of a set so no I have to get a new one ,

Any one else lost anything recently on the job ?

Lost my Stanley FatMax tape recently as well (£22), not sure I'm missing it though, it had a magnetic end to it that was more hindrance than help, it would stick to anything when I didn't want it to and wouldn't stick when I wanted it to. It once stuck to a heavy 1200x600mm luminaire I had leant against a wall. When I pulled it, said luminaire was dragged to the floor and ruined

I lost some knipex side cutters on a job. I returned a few months later to do the 2nd fix, cut the ground floor downlights out and put my hand up the hole to fish the cables out and found my cutters

Losing tools is bad enough, when it gets nicked that's what really pees me off, yo answer your question Danny, not working anymore, so all my stuff remains locked up on my garage, with the hopw I might need it sometime, would hate it if I lost ant of it.

That's an awful excuse for buying new tools, but a good one must remember that when "she who must be obeyed" starts harping on about " not more tools Pete" but it's an occupational hazard when you have this addiction, I keep telling her it's disease, but she wont have it.

I had an apprentice many years back, he came to me on site one morning and said, "If you know where something is but you cant put your hand on it have you lost it?"......."Well, no I guess not" I replied.
"That's good then" he came back "cos your pliers are at the bottom of the cavity, but I haven't lost them".
He ended up a delivery driver.
