Well, I'm kinda on the fence about this one. I'm sorta scatterbrained, so if I don't keep things organized, I can never find anything. Plus, I'm a packrat, I'll never throw anything away that I can envision a potential use for, including nuts and bolts. On the other hand, I also have a one track (narrow guage...) mind, so when I'm working on something, I'm WORKING, not putting stuff away. I DO try to have a place for everything. My way of handling it is that when a job is finished, I clean everything up, put the tools away, put unused hardware back in it's bins, sweep the floor, empty the trash, etc. If I finish late and I'm tired, I might put it off until the next day, or the weekend. If I have a long-term job, I try to put everything away each night. Again, if I'm too tired, I'll do it before I start the next morning. I know it seems like a silly thing to put away all the tools you are about to use just before you start, but if they're hanging on the wall or in the drawer where they belong, it's easier and quicker to find them than trying to remember where you left them laying the night before.
