I don't have much, but I REALLY love my bomber jacket that I bought a year ago, looks good and makes me look good, I think.

Edit: after 2 edits that title still needs adjustments...

My last job renovated, then laid us all off. There was a 200USD laser measurer at the front desk that was untouched for a year after they renovated. Now I have a nice laser measurer!

It's not theft, you're just borrowing it! You're just waiting for them to ask for it back!

Hahaha exactly!

Also, is it theft if nobody owned it? My partner worked the front desk after renovation and it was just sitting in the junk drawer… since they were selling the building, they were giving all the art that was on the walls and appliances away hahaha. We figured it wouldn’t be missed, and now I can play with my cats from a distance and know what the distance is!

I didn't know how many things I needed to measure instead of guesstimate until I had this. I also carry a tape measure, but this is so easy!

They’re SO cool! I didn’t even know what it was when my partner showed it to me, but nobody knew it existed and we were getting laid off anyway so we yoinked it. When I realized what it did I was like “neeeat!”
