    When you can't say no to even the smallest bit of scrap you pass ..... just got to pick it up .
    OR can't help taking it apart no matter how small it is (you know that theres nothing in there but still open it)
    Dream about scrap (or is that just me?)

    In my day job we auction insolvent companies assets for the creditors...as part of this we first give a rough value of the assets and then 'lot-up' items to try and get the best return. While in conversation with my co-worker i found we both had the same problem ... everywhere i go i sort of 'lot' things together and estimate the value.
    It's not a job thats popular with some people (Ex-employees think we are killing their jobs but trust me when a companies so far down the pan , in so much debt and we find the owners have taken a lot of money out- they rarely leave broke) then someones got to do it.

    British - doing his best
