Did you know that Staples sell tubs of 24 HB pencils? Thats just about enough to keep me going on each job as I routinely "missplace" each pencil.
Have you noticed how your mixing bucket always gets a hole in it when you dont have a spare?
Why is it that the first 100mm of a tape measure becomes unreadable after 2 jobs?
I have too many trowels to keep them in a tool box. I string them on a washing along along the side wall of the van.
I have discovered the teaching of Zen Minimalism. Its about how to visualise your work and ensure that you only need to carry one box of tools onto a site.
I discovered how to stop ripping my hands open with Stanley Blades. I bought a box of 100 replacement blades. Now I never use a blade that isn't sharp - now I dont cut myself but when I do it will be much easier to stitch up my hand after cutting it with a clean sharp knife........
