I’ve been working at an O’Reilly Auto warehouse for a little over 3 1/2 years now, and I am still amazed at what we throw away, scrap, etc.. Latest was a K-Tools tool cart, a really nice tool cart. Only thing wrong with it was a dented corner and missing keys. I fixed the corner, swapped the lock, and now I can’t stop playing with it. Had to add some decorations…

Most of the stuff in and on the cart came out of our returns department. All destined for the compactor or scrapper…
That’s crazy! Sick tool cart

That’s one hell of a setup for mostly free stuff! I need to get a job there!
Really sad part is that we can’t bring any of it home…
That sucks but it’s understandable. That’s why I like working for myself and working for a small shop. I just fixed a 55″ LED smart TV that was given to me that was going to the garbage for $40, the part cost. Gave it to my Mom.
What brand are those long extensions?
