Before picking up your fully laden, 19 compartment trade case of screws
- do ensure that the clips are done up.

Failure to do so will result in the best part of 3,000 screws spilling
into the floor.

*******s.

Who hasn't done that. I learnt quickly that only self locking burst-proof trays were worth a thing. Strange that many trays out there aren't.

Similarly, when transporting a tooltray that's full of tiny components
in different compartments, using a hand-pulled trolley, don't allow a
combination of adverse camber, a sharp corner, too much hurry, and a
gale force wind to overturn the trolley. It's especially important to
avoid this when the ground has two inches of freezing slush on it,
because this makes the retrieval of the components all the more unpleasant.

Particularly entertaining when this takes place on the access road of a
large factory, causing thousands of pounds-worth of work for garages
replacing punctured tyres.

Bitter? Me?

It's on occasions like this that small children who enjoy sorting
things come in handy.

The one time I did this, I evidently looked so desolate that my wife
took pity on me and did most of it for me. I'm a lucky man.
