    Confused

    In the post "you might be a hack if" there was the commet you might be a hack if you have a CLAW HAMMER in your tool bag.

    Now I uderstand from time to time a hammer is needed...if for nothing else but to smack us new guys when we ask stupid ??.... SO my ???? is what type(S) of hammer do you all carry in your tool bag....I picked up a rubber malet and ball peen hammer yesterday to replace the claw hammer I had in the tool bad.

    I have a tinners hammer in my bag, and a claw hammer in my truck, and I do use the claw hammer from time to time, but I work on new construction so it comes in handy.

    I don't know what the ball peens gonna be used for....are you gonna be a car mechanic also?

    I did not have one so figured what the heck if I dont get one 1st day on the job boss will ask for one and think Im stupid for not haveing one..if nothing else I can use it office staff deducts time from my time card or boss wont give me a raise after my first week on the job...or old timer dont listen when I tell him "your doing it all wrong!! this is how we were shown to do it at school" ..

    A 16 pound sledge for those not so nice units.....or to make a quick repair.

    I wouldnt put too much stock in that thread on being a hack. Having a hammer in your pouch doesnt make you one. Buncha people trying to outdo the others on a post like that. lol
