Random Team Member - "What is wrong with the shop vac?" as a sawdust fountain appears at the exhaust.
Me - "Did you put the filter back on when you dumped the sawdust?"
RTM - "What filter?"

This leads to a trip back to the dumpster to retrieve the filter paper. After 20 minutes, the shop vac is once again ready and the power switch is flipped. <Sawdust Fountain>

RTM - "But we put the filter back on."
Shop vac is opened, showing the filter laying in the bottom of the tank.
Me - "Did you put the plastic filter ring back on to hold the filter in place?"
RTM - "What plastic ring?"
Me - "Take it to the WALL OF SHAME (the place for broken tools and equipment) until we can order a new one."
