i had to break into a customers truck because i locked the keys in the truck today. the back window was really easy to get into with a hook pick.

i wrap some of my easy to lose tools in bright yellow tape. i find it is the only color that catches my eye no matter what the interior color is or if it slips into a dark crack. bright pink can still blend in with a burgundy interior if it is dark and the same with bright blue or orange. bright yellow is the best by far. anyone ever lost a cell phone in a customer's car?

Back when I was in college (and a smoker) my g/f at the time gave me an engraved Zippo for some reason or another.  Less then a month after she gave it to me I lost it in a customers car.

Lucky for me though, we get all the customers info right.  Right. 

I called the lady and explained the situation and appologized for inconveniencing her.  She told me it wasn't a problem and that she would look.  Sure enough,. she found it.  I offered to come to her place and pick it up she told me that would be fine.

About 20 minutes later some guy calls the shop yelling and screaming at me telling me that if I want my lighter back that he is going to bring it to me.  He never did.  I'm guessing he had some trust issues....

t&t aren't you going to blow your power supply fuse doing that?   Personally I prefer wiping over an old speaker magnet a couple of times.

no howard, it won't blow, as i said, you're not leaving it for more than ten seconds max, try it if you have a small supply lying around, waaay better than that over the magnet trick.
