Don't you hate it when other people clean/reorganize your work space?

Don't you hate it when other people clean/reorganize your work space? - 06.19.2009, 11:17 PM

Earlier this month my shop room had to be converted to be a bedroom as we had lots of company. My dad swept it all up and we both cleaned all the other crap. It took all night and I was aggrivated I had to clean it.

After looking for at least 3 hours, I ended up missing over 10 meters of heat shrink and a [$12] dogbone from the lil micro t. DAMMIT.

He doesn't know what the hell he's doing either. I found a foot of 16 gauge wire and a case to a stun gun in the little remaining trash in the room. dammit.

dammit.

My parents have cleaned my basement workshop- once. I told them if they did it again I would clean their rooms and throw out everything "I" didn't think was of use.

YES it is a mess, YES I know I should clean it. But as it is now I know where EVERYTHING is! They can't seem to understand how I can reach into a random pile of parts on my bench and pull out just the one I need.

I have cleaned my own areas up many times and manage to loose stuff every time. But I do hate it when others move my stuff around. Luckily I have threatened death and people have no idea how far I will go.

With that avatar, I wouldn't dare push it...

My dad cleaned up my little room a couple times, not the workshop, but just my room..
I couldn't find a thing for about a week....

Oh god, don't get me started. We have a cleaning lady what just shoves things in random drawers to clean off spaces... Maybe that's why I never get anything done!!!


Get me back into RC!

Oh god, to think of my dad came in here again, to clean my room.

I have 6 drawers behind me, that used to be all blank.
Ever since I started RC, it's been filled with goodies.

If my parents were to dump all my drawers out, I'd cry.

Seriously, if I need an ESC, or something related to onroad tires, look on top right drawer.

Parts, middle, right drawer, helis, left middle, and on and on.

It took me nearly a week to organize everything exactly how I like it....

Though, I DO need to clean up some day...

I have an airsoft AK47 that is very real-looking with the orange top painted black... Maybe I'll just sit here with that loaded on full auto with the door closed and a sign reading "prepare to be shot".

Then you'll have a SWAT team swing in the window behind you and that will be the end of BL_RV0.

They're a bunch of jokers that don't even have loaded guns.

lol, everyone knows "my area" is MY AREA. With all the wires and impressive looking components (I use my bench of electronics projects too), people are too scared to go near it for fear of electrocution.

And to those whose parents clean up after them: I say "too bad". As a parent myself, I figure it's my house, my payment, my rules. If it's not clean enough to my standards, it gets "taken care of" in a manner of my choosing depending on how many times I had to ask them to clean it up themselves. And if that's not good enough, the house has two exit doors, both freely available.
