Like the stapler, the door-stop, my pen, my laptop - stuff like that. I found that calling out for the item usually speeds up the locating of it. For example, when I can't find the stapler, I call out "STAPLER" and usually it is found within 30 seconds. Then again, when I call out 30 sets of eyes start searching for the misplaced item. <BR/>-I think they just find my callings annoying and in order to stop my annoyance they feverishly search for the item. You might want to try that tactic next time something goes missing. Just get on the PA system and start yelling the name of the missing item into the mic. Your co-workers will be so annoyed that they too will search for the missing item just to get you to shut the hell up.Beerspitnighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13844130040936872471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23144980.post-53579960800078501252007-09-08T11:09:00.000+08:002007-09-08T11:09:00.000+08:00When I was working with my stepdad building the sc...When I was working with my stepdad building the screen for my balcony, we had 3 cordless drills and hammers and other tools and nails and screws. We were working in a small space, so you'd think we'd be organized.<BR/><BR/>Every time we reached for a tool, it seemed to be in a different place than where we thought we'd set it down. Both of us are usually very careful about that, but for some reason we just kept putting the tools in inconvenient places.<BR/><BR/>Silly.Travis Codyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06192526507760146748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23144980.post-72537100545921185302007-09-06T13:32:00.000+08:002007-09-06T13:32:00.000+08:00Oh wow... what a small world.

Documents, samples, etc go missing for days only to be found among his things... but when he 'borrows' your stuff, he tells you about it if he sees you before the day ends. This is so funny.... :DTerra Shieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00039195435967190497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23144980.post-70835490385282951572007-09-06T02:06:00.000+08:002007-09-06T02:06:00.000+08:00I used to work with a woman, who would lose import...I used to work with a woman, who would lose important items (although nothing as big as your container) and then get in a huge panic about them and have everyone who works in the company, except the CEO, looking for it. It invariably turned up several hours later in her office (where she refused to allow anyone to look, on the grounds that she had thoroughly searched it).. she also used to remove items from other people's desk and randomly leave them elsewhere - she was the most counter-productive employee ever, when she went on holidays we always got more work done... I think she may have moved to your workplace!!!!Mairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06110865608550754101noreply@blogger.com
