Good day to you all
I have a few questions reguarding tool requirments for technicians. First of all does your employer require you to have specific tools that you own to perform daily repairs? For example we require a basic set of hand tools, along with torque wrenches, and electrical test equipment ( muliti meter, test light,power probe III, spark tester, etc ) What toos do you require for a new hire? I am thinking about requiring technicians to be required to purchase a power probe hook, however it is fairly pricey ( $400 - $450 ) and i wanted to know what you all thought? Thank you for you input

Its not the equipment , its how you use it.

Fact of the week
The use of "hello" as a telephone greeting is attributed to Thomas Edison. He is said to have suggested it as a simpler alternative to other greetings, such as "Do I get you?" or "Are you there?".
