    Unofficial units of measurment

    Business was pretty crazy for me for a while and I was forced to move shop from my parents garage to a storage unit. I've caught up/slowed down lately so I'm working on moving back to my ps with everything to save the monthly rent from the unit. With storage prices so high I made due with what I had for bins and shelving. I was just talking to the wife about how much I had of certain items and came up with a new unit of measurement. Sure, the standard in the industry is pounds, kilograms, tons, etc. Then there's the common unofficial units such as crap ton, and sh*t load. I just invented a new unit (at least as far as I know anyways)



    I had a fridge of CD drives. Lol. Literally a fridge with every shelf full of drives. So let's hear it. What other units of measurement have you used that when spoken, the person next to you just looked at you and said huh? And you told them yeah, I just made that a thing.
