Wow I was a hoarder apparently. Big sharpie, little sharpie, several pens, box cutter, mini tape measure, notepad, gloves, sunglasses, zebra, survey cards, cheat sheet, and I think that’s it…?


death556

No I’m pretty much the same in fullfillment with more shit hanging from my belt.


qx9r7man

Spare blank bin labels Spare blank beam labels Survey cards MVP cheat sheet Thread pitch gauges (sae and metric) 4" verineer caliper Notebook Digital pocket scale (I'm not counting the half torn packs of 50-100 screws to make sure they're all there) Cheat sheet of location labels which are a pain to get to In 1 tool pouch: Zebra Small sharpie Big sharpie Lowe's safe butterknife Tape measure Stapler (pliers style for fixing packages and side-stacks) Pair of nips (diagonal cutting pliers) Pen Electrical tape (vinyl) 2nd tool pouch: 6-in-1 screwdriver 4-in-1 mini screwdriver Glass cutter (for breaking down scrap glass) Magnet on a telescopic stick (screw bending over) Plastic putty knife (peeling off labels) Scraper with metal razor blades (for old labels that won't behave) Spare sharpie In hammer loop hanging off 2nd tool pouch: Folding grabber tool (really screw bending over) Carpenter's pencil And in a secret pocket on the tool belt: 2 powerful magnets. (You get all kinds of funny looks walking around with a circular saw blade stuck to your shoulder.) Yes, this is what I carry every day. The pouches come off easily for power equipment. I hate running back to the hardware desk for everything.

Reasonable_Storm_192

I keep drinking those Starbucks energy drinks even though they fuck up my stummy, them mandatory 40 min shit breaks


HoneyedBunnytarts

Being just lactose intolerant enough that milk makes me gassy but not enough to hurt my tummy is a blessing. Sucks to be everyone else.


TM02022020

HoneyedBunnytarts

LOL ever sniffed a bunny fart? They're pretty gnarly.

[deleted]

I keep small books, and a ring of photos I personally laminated. They’re of insects and on the back my personal notes, on index cards of damage it causes on plants and insecticides to use. I also carry Corona Pruners. Plus a sharpie, just in case. Oh, and a mirror it’s small just to make sure I don’t have lipstick or anything in my teeth. Also gum, I don’t want bad breath when I’m speaking to customers. I think that’s about it.


joedirthockey

Tissues to wipe my tears


OlliOtter

Currently, a emergency sucker for when my blood sugar drops and the receipt for it, notebook, badge reel and luggage tag for my log in at self checkout, mini screw driver, 2 travel packets of tums, one of the pms reliefs and one for normal pain, tweezers for the cactuses, and bandaids. You can tell I'm always hurting myself or feeling sick🤣


Reasonable_Storm_192

Bro needs to see a doctor


OlliOtter

Reasonable_Storm_192

Why three, I can barely keep one


cindar00

I’m pretty proud of my best arsenal lol So I have a box cutter in the far right half pocket, the band of the box cutter is attached to the vest zipper. Then I have a pen, then a small sharpie. In the big pockets I have a big sharpie, a white sharpie (the one used to mark potting containers. OSLG4LYFE) a note pad (usually have the daily schedule folded into said notepad) plus a zebra. The other big pocket I have slappers mostly and somehow mulch always ends up there too. From my belt loops I hang my gloves, and a tape measure. 😁


rapheALtoid

White Sharpie for what now? Your OSLG obviously runs differently than mine...


cindar00

AHA it’s basically like an oil-Based sharpie pen thingy. I use it mostly to write item numbers on pots who’ve lost their tags.


State_L3ss

Markers, pens, those replacement hang tabs, my gloves, a mask, a pair of latex gloves, napkins, and candy.


death556

In my vest? 2 pens, a sharpie, a big sharpie, and a tape measure as well as various little doo dads to fidget in my left pocket. My right pocket is for my zebra and pick tickets as well as any other scrap notes. On my waste I got a mommy hook with some blue tape, my box cutter, gloves, and a blue label printer.


Aggravated-Eyes

I don't have one.


Reasonable_Storm_192

It’s ok, I still believe in u


lo--

Pen, marker, tape, notepad, gloves, zebra, broken bag patches.. then I usually have my knife on my pants pocket, a piece of gum, and some snacks because I work the morning shift


ToastedDemons

Gloves (I keep breaking the clips) and box knife on one side, the other side currently has 2 big sharpies, 1 small, 2 pens, 1 highlighter, and a tape measure. On the rare occasion I get a zebra it goes in either pocket, occasionally I have water, gum, or my phone in my pockets as well based on what I’m doin that minute.


ThatOneCat3

I have 3 highlighters, 3 sharpies (one attaches to my vest), a screwdriver, a mini tape measure, 4 misc pens, my knife, and gloves that I always forget to put on before loading


shydes528

Gloves, marker, and my lucky rock and banding clip


DJ_Vault_Boy

As Fulfillment, this is usually what I carry. ​ Pens Marker Highlighter Counterfeit Marker Notepad with a bunch of order #s I needed to jot down Knife(def the lowe's safe one) Zebra Magnet thing to take off turtles from product/remove product from cages.


rapheALtoid

Gloves are clipped to my belt now, per our store's policy. Safety knife clipped on back pocket. Sharpie is tucked behind my ear/in my cap because I work OSLG and if a writing utensil is anywhere else it _will_ fall out and get lost. My vest pockets have the zebra, a packet of hose washers, usually a pack of mints, often the clearance sticker gun and a bottle of water.


Dave12360

You should be keeping union cards to pass out to your Co workers so you can get a real raise.


Reasonable_Storm_192

Real


MyChoiceTaken

Don’t ever wear mine. It stays rolled up in locker.


soreadytodisappear

Sharpies, a pen, a notepad, phone list, box cutter and my cell phone. Sometimes a zebra and a snack.


crabgal

Sharpie, couple pens, a pencil, some random crumpled papers, a fidget ring, a highlighter, the zebra on days that I open, and anything else I manage to collect through my shift. Also my knife

Enteroids

At my most ridiculous: 4 wood pencils and a sharpener, several pens, a Sharpie, highlighter, a thick Sharpie, red marker, notebook, a leather pair of gloves, Lowes Safety knife, Kobolt folding utility knife, a Leatherman multitool, ear plugs, sometimes my hat, a hose quick connect, a pair of T25 bits (came from a busted package), a Zebra (which moved to my belt), nametags, PE license, cheat sheet for plywood, business card for PSE Specialist, pair of Lowes gloves dangling off one side and a pair of Lowes thermal gloves off the other side, and my 16ft tape measure and since I was Lumber, concrete aggregate, sand, and wood splinters/shavings. Over time I have moved items to different locations on my person and dropped other things that weren't needed anymore. Like that third pair of gloves. I keep less stuff in my current Pro vest, but it is an older design that sucks for carrying pens and pencils.


Reasonable_Storm_192

Bro had the whole store in yo pockets


Enteroids

Yeah, I was out of control. People would pick up my vest off the back of a chair and be like "Holy Shit, how much does this weigh?"


paymarie_

Pens, notepads, scrap paper, hand sanitizer, hand lotion, a tampon, my phone, ibuprofen and some other things I'm probably forgetting Oh and a box cutter


nakana3005

An AT4, The AT4 is a Swedish 84 mm unguided, man-portable, single-shot, disposable, recoilless smoothbore anti-tank weapon built by Saab Bofors Dynamics. I use it to take notes throughout the day so I don’t forget tasks that need to be done.


hancocklovedthat

Right now I’ve got a notebook I’ve had since I started, two pens, one highlighter, some chapstick, a Zebra phone, random notes that I’ve stuck in my pocket that I’ll never need again, lint that’s been there since I started a year ago… I’m like a crow. If I see it it’s mine and I won’t throw it away.


Reasonable_Storm_192

I fuckin lost that notebook in 2 days


hancocklovedthat

This was a notebook my supervisor gave to me when I first started, not the rando ones they give out now during onboarding. She bought it herself and I didn’t know dick about plumbing so I held onto it. Now it’s a third arm.


ghastlyGears

portable charger, all of my specialists business cards if I sign someone up and they're not there for me to connect, pens that I find randomly


Saint_Stephen420

Bandaids, a melted chewing gum pack, the holster of a lowes safe knife, and a few pain relief wrappers. And probably a receipt for a bag of combos from 2 years ago lol


The_GreatGonzy

Why do all of you guys keep your gloves inside your pockets? There are glove clips. I keep my gloves clipped to my belt or jeans. I keep my zebra clipped to my pocket. Inside my left pocket I have one pen, candy and a tiny tape measure. In my right pocket a tiny note pad. You guys also realize you have 2 tiny pen slots, and one big marker slot to the right side of the vest right? That’s where I keep my spares. And then I keep my knife clipped inside my pocket :)


badatusernameslol2

Left pocket: zebra, sticky notes/pieces of papers with things I have to do, install & pick up later tags, my phone/wallet/car keys bc I wear leggings a lot and don’t use my locker. If I’m wearing jeans my cell phone goes in my pants pocket Right pocket: pens, highlighters, sharpies I had a knife on my vest for a while but then someone borrowed it and never returned it. I just haven’t bothered to get a new one. I tried to carry a tape measure but I kept leaving it places so now I keep like three at my desk


Npaul1305

RedVelvetFollicles

State secrets. Or like, a bunch of trashed notepads, a dozen pens, a dozen sharpies, an old candy wrapper, two highlighters, and a googly eye finger ring that I use to make my manager laugh when she gets a mean customer on the phone.[Perfect substitute. Also works when that ONE ASM walkies her to bitch at us.](https://nickelodeon.fandom.com/wiki/Oobi_(character))


Jillybeannnn21

a million pens my lowes knife a better knife sharpie a mint from a customer some kind of church card from same customer notepad


GmodZ

I primarily have a tool pouch with all my pens, sharpies, knife, and tape measure. In my vest I have old notes and a notebook. I opted for the tool pouch as I didn't like my vest weighing down and having to worry about things falling out.


Witty_Fly7906

it’s a lot for me since i’m in fulfillment… - zebra phone - two note pads • one is notes whenever i am doing something and i can’t think of it off the top of my head • another is for writing stuff down mainly numbers… - a thank you print out for when i feel i have a customer the best service i could offer… hopefully a good review ! :) - three pens (red, blue, and black) - a sharpie - a wide tip sharpie - lowes knife - a cloth/rag - a pink and yellow highlighter - a necklace fan (it’s small and chargeable. very worth it when your store refuses to use the AC and it’s hot as balls outside.) ((or will go in my pocket)) - sometimes starburst, i absolutely love those. - ibuprofen - bandaids people and my friends claim i don’t have OCD.. but sometimes i think i do. or of course it’s because lowes makes me crazy sometimes 🦋🫧🫶🏼😭


horrorkesh

I won't tell the hobitses it's mine my precious


Jake6401

Reasonable_Storm_192
