    Hehe, i keep a screwdriver in my toolbag one in my laptop bag another in my cars boot, just for that reason. I will instead on leaving the stuff at home or at the office leave stuff like spray cleaner and brushes and the like everywhere at the customers they are normally nice enough to phone or to keep it oneside.

    I would love to hear that story. Wait I need to clarify that statement…I would be curious how that happened, and the outcome, do you still service that account? Wow, that sounds even worse. Lol, that has to be awkward.
