I lose them entirely too often for that to be an affordable option for me 🤭 I get like 80 clothespins for $1. I’ve gone through like 5 packs of them in 15 years, give or take.
But maybe I’d hit a level of saturation eventually (I find random clothespins all the time now) and it would work out.
Probably not - I have a habit of MacGyvering stuff from whatever I find laying around.. clothespins are stupid handy for that, and binder clips would be too.. so I’d definitely repurpose them.. :)
I also have to assume they probably do rotations, like watch/guard duty in the military, of control room and more active work, or it would get suuuuper boring real fast. Plus their skills would get rusty if nothing ever happened.
But maybe I’m overly optimistic.
