    My father had a workbench drawer marked “Pieces of Wire Too Short to Use.”

    Mind you, he was an electrician.

      Those are for special occasions, like when you’re doing electrical work in someone’s house who you don’t like much and feel like splicing 10 short wires together instead of using a long one.

      Maybe he was an electrician, but he definitely didn’t spend much time with circuit boards.
