🔨 **TODAY’S JOB: BUILDING FLAT-PACK FURNITURE** 🔩
Quick question for anyone who’s ever built flat-pack furniture…
Do they deliberately throw in a few extra screws, bolts and washers just to mess with your head? 🤔
Are they *genuine spares*… or have I missed something important and the whole thing is going to collapse the second someone sits on it? 💀😂
I’ve got three options:
1️⃣ They give you spares because they’re nice like that.
2️⃣ It’s an IKEA psychological warfare tactic.
3️⃣ I’m just absolutely s**t at flat-pack furniture. 🤦♂️🤣
Currently sat here with a handful of leftover bits, questioning my life choices… and trying to work out how I’m supposed to maintain my reputation as a professional handyman when a wardrobe is winning. 😂🔧
**Be honest… do you actually finish with spare screws, or am I the problem?** 👇🤣
