I just got off the phone with the head of maintenance over at the hospital. He said that there are 3 cameras that scan the parking lot and I guess tomorrow we are going to check them out. I cant wait. I hope the culprit is someone that works with us. Haha imagine the look on that ******* face when my boss tells him he has no job. It honestly is probably soemone we least expect. Maybe a past employee that got pissed with the company

It was insured, so I wouldn't fire you unless you sucked and I needed an excuse. You're obvious a good worker, and if worst case comes to pass (tools aren't returned) then they are replaced under insurance. But. I'd still sit your sweet *** down and tell you it's your only warning not to do something stupid like that again.

Keep your tool key on a retractable reel on your belt. I know a couple bartenders who use them for bottle openers, or keys to liquor cabinets. It's nothing to reach down for 1-2 keys, unlock, and then drop and let the reel snap them back. Zero time, dude.

It would be so inconvenient and would take up too much time hunting for the right key to the certain box. Anyone who has worked construction knows what I mean.. This is kind of a freak thing that could happen to any trades business, especially in a bigger city. I'm sure it's a common thing it just sucks nut because it's my responsibility. I should tell the boss to keep the truck and that i'm not ready for this responsibility.
were not talking about locking it when your on site but at the end of the day you lock the truck, if they were your own tools you would have made dam sure it was secure.

well if your far enough from the truck that it way out of your site and your in a building and you didn't lock it I dont think you have grounds to call me a genius. Any person with enough brains to not ---- on the floor should be able to figger out that the truck should be locked

They make these magentic locks where all you have to do is swipe your sensor thingy across it and it unlocks, cost a bit but in the end its worth every penny.

I hope they catch those ******* on the camera and get punished by every extent of the law. Thats ------ ------ ----!!

shut up man you have no idea how a trades business runs. when there are like 8 carpenters taking and bringing back power tools, hand tools, chords.. or even if we need a simple drill bit.. these are things i'm talking about. Constantly throughout the day the utility bed is being used. Parking is also an issue there because patients are first so we have to park in the back of the parking lot. Time is money and for everyone to have to pass around different keys to different boxes of the truck is a cluster ---- and nothing at the job site would get done at our rate of speed. We are no jo blow construction business. We build high end commercial construction projects. One good thing about what happend is those tools were getting wore out and they needed replaced with all new. So insurance will take care of us
