Lug Nut Removal Help Needed

One can develop a lot of hate for locking lug nuts while working at a tire store. 1987 to 92 was my 4 year tour and soooo many customer were completely clueless, "I didn't know there were locking lugs on it so I surely dont know where to find the key".
A long 1/4 inch chisel with hammer and counterclockwise angle to the cut became my go to tools/solution.
Not trying to make this thread go sideways, but I worked at a tire store from 84-86 and remember the 80's Buick/Cadillac wire wheel cover removal tool attached to the lug wrench in the trunk( sometimes) that was very similar just smaller scale. Boy I wanted to kick that genius engineer in the nuts. Now returning to our regularly scheduled program.
