I found a tool bag on the side of the highway.
By @zanekk · Social
Found a full tool bag on the shoulder yesterday on my way home from a job. Pulled over, grabbed it. Looked inside and it's easily a grand worth of stuff.
The full story
I work construction, so I know what this stuff costs. It was a nice canvas bag, full of high-end hand tools, some power tools, looked like a pro's setup. No name or number anywhere on it. I posted on a couple local Facebook groups to see if anyone was missing it. If no one claims it in a week or so, I'm keeping it. Feels like I hit a little lottery.

@remyok2 — lmao
@umalately — Score. That guy's boss is probably chewing him out right now for leaving it on the truck bumper.
@luke — My dad lost his entire set of tools this way once. He was absolutely devastated, it was like his whole livelihood.
@karayy — Did you check for any initials or markings engraved on the tools themselves?
@totallyfine — You're doing the right thing by posting online. Hopefully the owner sees it!
