    I get flack from some of the guys on the crew that works at the site I also do. I pick up a little piece of sheet metal and throw it into the truck. I just say: "Every Ounce Counts"

    I'm so into scrapping.. When my Steel Toe Boots Wear out, I cut the Steel out of them and recycle the Toe!

    I can relate to that. I always say "every little bit adds up"

    It' may not be much, but it all adds up eventually.

    Sledge, That one's definitely my most used.
    I have also been known to use the term "orange gold" and "drive slow look fast" but I got that one from another member.
    Oh and I save all my transformers from microwaves for any unforeseen times of need, I call it my employment insurance and if you don't get that wine then you've never broken down a transformer!
