When your instruments play hide and seek

Ever had one of those days where every tool you need decides to vanish right before a procedure? Just last week, I was searching for the scaler for 20 minutes, only to find it sitting right in the autoclave. Makes you wonder if the instruments are pulling a prank on us.
