properly equipped

Some coworkers were rearranging our office this morning at work, and decided to take down some shelving strips. They tried doing it with a Swiss Army knife, but the screws were in pretty tight, so I volunteered to get a multi-bit screwdriver from my car. The response: "Why do you have a screwdriver in your car?"

Is it not normal for people to keep tools in their cars? I do have a habit of keeping way too many things in my car, but I would think a screwdriver would be useful for many situations.

Anyway, we got the shelves taken down, and we're now ready for our new lounge furniture (ETA early next week).
