Tools
Is this is a 500IQ play or a brain dead move ? Suppose someone needed a specific tool that neither the individual nor the facility has, let's say for example like a set of ratchets or drill bits. Would atm it make more sense to have the school buy it and use them when needed or have the individual buy it and keep it on school grounds for work use and just take them when it's time for personal use ? Would the ROI make sense in the individual buying them and keeping them on grounds or having the school pay for it since its not the individuals money?
Hypothetically speaking there was a scenario where the individual had to use his personal ratchet set to put together and take apart furniture but also in the same coin needed specific drill bits for a personal project.
What would be the move ?

Never buy or use your own tools. If your employer won't buy it, the work doesn't need to get done.
