Or wasted too much time taking selfies.

Or looking into the shiny solar panel to see how they looked in the space suit.

Those who might wish for a 10mm may actually GET one....

Personally, I think they don’t exist.

One 10mm wrench in the kit and they lose it?

Some time in the future a starship cruise ship will be badly damaged when it gets hit by a toolbag.

It could have been a lot worse. Just ask Sandra Bullock.

Men don’t lose tools. Apollo 13 would have crashed into the sun with these two idiots.

You might be right. I once worked with a female astronaut who was most famous for losing a tool bag and passing out during a press conference. I'm sure in the history of the space program, a man has lost a tool or two, but women seem to lose them at an unacceptable rate.

No makeup, no long silky tresses, no décolletage will tend to do that.

That’s what you get when you have a woman do a man’s job. Political correctness has screwed the military, law enforcement, tv ,the country, etc.

[Not enough time? because they worked way too slow?]

Everything takes longer when you lost the right tools.
