I loaned out some of my tools to a few of Kubota's buddies the other day.
They all came back, except my last pair of loppers.
I have text messages out asking them to look in the back of their trucks but I have little hope of them coming back home.
I may have to break down and spend a little bit of money.
Having invested quite a bit in tool purchases and maintenance, I can say that I never loan out a tool that I hvaen't already said 'goodbye' to. And I never let anyone slide on not returning a tool, I take prisoners, name & shame. But I also make it clear up front that it's just a loan, and it's on penalty of replacement.
ReplyDeleteI found the loppers the third time I went looking for them. They were in the woods. Beneath a tarp. With logs stack on the tarp.
DeleteIt was the ONLY place I had not looked.
Aggie, I like your style.
