What is your most important tool? - Lemmy.World

I don’t just mean a wrench, unless thats it for you. I mean any tool you regularly use for work that you consider your most important. If you’re a software person name whatever digital tool you guys use. Whatever the career everyone uses tools I dont care if they are digital, verbal, physical or psychological. For me its honestly probably a flashlight, before I use any tools I’m always investigating with my flashlight or using a laser to trace lines.

Regularly use for work? Scalpel blades. My job would be essentially impossible without them.
What do you do?
I get every organ or piece of tissue that is removed from you during surgery. I cut up the tissue so it can be made into slides for the pathologist (a type of physician) to render a diagnosis.
How finely do you cut your steak at a restaurant? I’m imagining you cutting very fine slices and savoring them one by one.

Lol!! Believe it or not, I hate cutting my food!

Because…

  • I’m lazy
  • When you’re used to using ultra sharp knives, things like steak knives feel so incredibly dull that it’s infuriating/“difficult”. At work, I go through scalpel blades like candy. A sharp blade is always key for my work!
