Harbor Freight at Pawnee and Seneca in Wichita is hiring. I would have every tool known to man if I had some kind of discount and had to be around tools all day. I spend $100 just driving buy that place.

I saw that when I was in there Saturday afternoon. Might be an interesting second job, only trouble is that if they have an employee discount, I'd be working there for free.

With the wages they pay you'd most likely go in the hole.

Harbor Freight (HF) tools are just 'ok'. I bought some Pittsburgh Professional stubby wrenches and have not broke 1, yet. Bought some regular (non Professional line) Pittsburgh 24" bolt cutters and broke them on a 3/8" bolt. They were more than happy to exchange it for the exact same thing. The Lifetime Warranty is good but who wants to keep making a trip to exchange crap? If the first one did not hold up then how do you know the second or third or fourth will? Better than Cummins Industrial Tools for sure. Every single tool I bought at Cummins has broken, with no warranty to fall back on. Harbor Freight is not as good as S-K, Craftsman, Stanley..... If you don't use it hard or regularly then get HF.

I never buy anything there that my life depends on (jack stands etc), but most of the small stuff has been ok for me.
