Update: My tool wall organization cut service time on residential jobs

I mounted pegboard in my van to hang all my common tools. Now I can see everything at a glance when fixing elevator buttons or leveling cars. It saved me about ten minutes per call this month. Next, I'm tagging my spare parts bins to make finding replacements quicker.

Try magnetic strips for those small metal parts next.

Magnetic strips might seem handy, but they often grab every tiny metal scrap around. Then you're just digging through a messy pile instead of finding what you need.

Magnetic strips for small parts. Hope you like chasing screws across the floor.

That "chasing screws across the floor" bit hits home. It's part of a bigger pattern where small items just have a mind of their own. Like how pens always roll away when you need them, or keys hide in the last place you look. Even bobby pins seem to teleport to another dimension. It's like the universe enjoys watching us hunt for tiny things lmao.
