that's hilarious!!! :p
but it rarely happens to me...
I do my own laundry and normally clean my pockets of money, change, and the occasional nuts, bolts, etc.

Well, sometimes our garbage can is inconveniently placed a little ways from our working station, so I get these occasional clipped zip ties and wadded electrical tape in my pockets, and if I get lucky, a bolt here or there....
Sometimes I get a scrap metal souvenir if I'm lucky enough :D .

That happened to me alot last season, and after every comp, I kept wondering why all my cloths had little holes in them.

this has definitely happened to me! Being the main electrical person, it's usually wire connectors for me.. but there have been screws, nuts, and drill bits, too.. :rolleyes:

No, this doesn't happen to me. But only because I make sure my pockets are empty when I wash clothes. I'm fiddling with a 10-32 locknut as I type this. =P

It's a useful habbit, checking your pockets...My sister washed my cell phone once. =\

I usually empty my pockets before doing laundry (if I have time to do laundry during build season), but I have gone out to get dinner without taking off my safety glasses.

You know you're a FIRSTaholic when you start having dreams about your robot teacher and mentors :ahh:

I am always writing and working on something... I have inadvertantly washed many a pen.

I have a pair of 'FIRST jeans' - I recommend everyone has a pair - that I wear any time I think I'll be working on something. They are ripped up, have motor grease on one of the legs, and holes around the pockets, mainly from allen wrenches. There are pictures of them prior to the 03 season that show them still in pristine condition, as opposed to the aftermath of the 05 season, where they are indeed a sorry sight to see.
