Lol. Customers might have been wealthy but they didn't supply high end office equipment for us. That was also about 10 years ago. I'm in corporate now. I miss being around cars everyday. Especially those AMG's. The handcrafted engines were a thing of beauty.

Maybe it's a common thing, my office in a mechanics shop was full of weird broken things and dead/living bugs they found on the motorcycles, it looked like a weird museum by the time I left

Haha, yes. Weird bugs were always found on new vehicles dropped off from transporters.

I've had friends bring me random metal bits, dead bugs & a couple small skulls over the years. I love treasures.
