    Tool Account

    Just found out I have a "Tool Account" at work!

    From what I understand, the way it works is you tell them what you want to buy and from where. They order and pay for it and deduct a certain percentage from your paycheck every week. My co-workers say people have bought laptops and such for their wives as Christmas presents this way and that I shoud be "good" to order things that dont necessarily pertain to work. Like say a steamer.....or the new Flex.....or the new Festool Shinex that has just become available in the US.

    Anyone else have this at work?

    I think AG should sell roses lol! A single rose with a package of pads and compounds would fix ALL of our problems. Maybe even specialized poems and cards! And thanx 93 for changing your profile pic bro..... the minion made it hard to take you seriously bro lol. Nice to put a real face to a name

    Re: Tool Account

    Hmmm, years ago Snap-On tools had this kinda thing. They (Snap-On) would work with the shop and the employee. It worked well, the truck would come by (often), you needed an odd goose tool (for whatever reason), you grabbed it and off you went back to work.

    The draback was, you could get carried away VERY easily...LOL.
