I like to extend job times by doing old guy cool stuff like putting down a screwdriver to pick up another tool, then five minutes later spend an hour to figure out where the screwdriver is.

if you think that's funny, just you wait...

I bring 3-4 screwdrivers so no matter where I turn I can find one.

I try and bring only a Phillips and Flat Head so I can make sure the screw is a torx head.

I've tried that but it doesn't work. They all get lost until you are down to the last one and have to search for it. With multiple tools you have hard time remembering where you used the other lost tools. So now I only use one (in general) of a kind. The other thing I've noticed is that even the simplest of tasks seem to take a large portion of my tool inventory so there is a huge pile of tools to put back in place when I'm done.
