The guy who used it tells me to "F%c^ off, BiT&%" .....so I get the door slammed n my face and my cam bearing tool is long gone.
Brings up a good point. I quit smoking 3 1/2 years ago. But when I did, It always amazed me me some stranger would ask to borrow a cigarette?
I would always reply, how in the hell are you gonna return it?
I just say no, you support your habit and I'll support mine.
They even call you names for that, but whatever.
Dammit, that was my line! lol.
i almost forgot to address the bigger issue here
any guy who will borrow a tool from anyone, but especially a lady, and not only refuses to bring it back but expects said lady to go retrieve said tool from a third party to whom he had no business lending the aforementioned tool in the first place is not someone you wish to associate with
I will loan out my tools to my friends as I have some times needed to borrow tools from them. I have always had them returned, and I have always treated my friends, and their tools with respect.
I saw that, on Facebook Rani/ Rainy..... I loaned out SEVERAL timing lights..(3 or 4...) " never heard back, when asked... Picked up a Mac dial back timing light, back in '98.... A technician " buddy "...., borrowed it , for six months.....(sigh....) . I chewed , him out.. (He is 6'4" .., 260 plus...) .., his wife starts complaining, about me wanting " tools back".. I chewed her out, with a closed end response... "Pay your bills, you can make due...." I got, my timing light back..... Broke the magnet, in the pickup, TOOL MAN MIKE, sent me, a spare!!!!!! THANK. YOU TOOLMAN MIKE! ...Sorry ,Rani... Tools become personal, when you use them,...often....Also posted on facebook:
Never lend your tools out !!!!!!
I had a "buddy" who needed to borrow a cam bearing tool. So I loaned it like an idiot and turns out he didn't need it for himself but his buddy who I don't know and needed it for a mustang of some sort.
So he takes my cam bearing tool and leaves it at his buddies place in a shady part of town, who is the one who actually needed it. He never brought it back, so 2 months later I go to get it back and my former "buddy" says he doesn't have it and told where his buddy lives who used it and told me that I have to go get it myself.
So I go to this other guy's house who has it who I don't know.
I tell him that it is mine and my "buddy" told me to come get it.
The guy who used it tells me to "F%c^ off, BiT&%" .....so I get the door slammed n my face and my cam bearing tool is long gone.
Luckily it was a cheap Chinkese tool that I found at a pawn shop a few years ago for cheap because I had to weld the end and it was missing some parts when I got it. So it could have been worse.
So to not let dumb things get me down .......I got over it and ordered a new Lisle 18000
Its in the mail but when it gets here, I am never lending it or any other tool out ever again. (I am going to get hostile if anyone asks) This is a much better tool anyways so remember, turn those lemons in life into sweet lemonade and buy nice tools, and don't forget to NEVER lend them out.

I saw that, on Facebook Rani/ Rainy....
Yes ,I am... I don't respond much,.... tools are expensive, and replacement...( whateve,r you're answer is.....tool owners , and Rani ..too....)wait a tick ......you are on my facebook list ??
cool enough ...if you see me on Facebook I will add you. But I only do posts about cars and cats, that's it....I am pretty boringYes ,I am... I don't respond much,.... tools are expensive, and replacement...( whateve,r you're answer is.....tool owners , and Rani ..too....)
I just made a new friend! The only reason this man trusted me was because he knew my friend was very selective in whom he called "friend". I don't have many friends myself because I too am very selective in calling someone my friend. The people you choose to call "friends" reveal a lot about your own values and standards.
I would probably loan a wife before a tool. If you dont get her back you can get a new one with less miles.I tell people that asking me to borrow my tools is like asking me to borrow my wife. Then I look them in the eye and ask them if they'd like to think about repeating that request while I go get my gun...
