I lose mine last month :(

Only Satan would design a hole that is smaller than the end of a bent paperclip when the entire purpose of the hole is to put something into it.

I just realized that each phone comes with one and only one of SIM ejectors, and I have a lot of those in my drawer. I think I have a problem. -_-

I keep one on my keys since it's useful for pushing reset buttons and things and if I really need to it even works as a screwdriver

I have a lifehack for this:

I noticed my phone battery bulging just yesterday. So I went and dug up the documentation that came with it to see if I could take advantage of the manufacturer's warranty. No dice, but the sim card tray ejector thing was in with the user's manual. So at least I have that. :/

I have like 7 of these in a container next to me. I don't think responsible is the word that would be associated with that behaviour.

PS - paperclips work fine for this purpose.

I'm very responsible

I mean, they fit on a keychain, which is fucking great; Sadly, they stab you through the pants pocket so they're fucking rude.

I do tech support, I always have one on my keychain.

I just bought a new phone and put it next to the other four I have.

Now what is that?

i usually grab a breadboard jumper wire and shove it in my sim card slot 😂

iFIXIT kits include a bit that lets you eject sim trays

I have a Moonlander split keyboard that is programmable and uses one of these little things for its reset button. My only gripe with it is that they could have designed a place for it to slot into the keyboard itself since it's very easy to lose it if it isn't otherwise attached to something.

Yay, what's my prize?

I fixit gang. If you did not know, some of the ifixit kits have a screwdriver bit that is just for that

What if we're sure it's around here somewhere, just not sure where?

aka fancy paperclip

You guys aren't just using eSIMs?

I still have it and now phone is eSIM only. But I can’t bring myself to throw it out.

this made me feel good about myself, thanks

....I used mine to clean my ears.

I have a screwdriver bit set that just includes one of those, very tightly secured. Whoever was responsible for ensuring this was neccessary: You are a hero.

We have a whole keyring full of them at work

I have something like 100 of these in a draw in my home office. Along with a straightened paperclip as a backup.

I'm responsible for a lot of things

Just tuck it into your phone case if you can. Easy solution to always have it when you need it.

How often are you dudes changing SIMs? I only ever do it when I get a new phone, and they always come with one.

I put mine on the keychain.... It's responsible for some small holes in my trousers pockets and I have been pricked too but worth it.

I may have found 5 in my desk drawer the other day...

There's always the trusty toothpick

disorganized paperclip gang sound off!

I am not responsible for most of the random stuff I own, but at least for that thing I found a good place. I keep it between the back of my phone and my phone case. I have to remove the case anyway to access the slot, and then it is just right there available.

This is why us millennials keep our phone boxes

I've always just kept it in my case, against the back of my phone.

Paper clip is better, these things are very flimsy, but also phones and Tablets don't always come with them.

I have many of them. At least 4.

I have plenty around the house. When I needed it, I still had to find something else to use because I had no idea where this was.

I keep mine in my phone case.

Clip gang unite!

I never kept mine and used a needle instead

I have at least 6 in my office right now, and another 2 or 3 around my house, and one in my truck...

I will not be taking any questions at this point.

Mine are all still in their boxes which I still save for no reason as I never ever will use them. Whenever I need a pin, I can't find a single box, but the boxes are always in the way when I try to find something else. It's a weird world we live in.

Wallet, coin part with a zip to keep it safe. It sits next to a random quarter i was given as change (im from the uk and it was given in place of a similar looking uk coin) a silver 1 pence coin (apparently they are rare and worth about £60 but as if my lazy arse is gon a sell it (and who actually buys these things anyway?) Some guitar picks and a franc (defunct french currency)

I got a Sony Xperia III last month. You can use a fingernail with it since the tray also holds your SD card

I store mine between my phone and phone case.

I use a heroin syringe.

I scotch-taped it on my desk, I'm looking at it right now...

Every time I get a delicate tool like this, it goes in a jar that sits on any random shelf in the house. You still have to go looking for the jar, but they're all there.

I have 6 now, 3 from my own phones and 3 from my wife's since we've been together. The oldest is coming up on 6 or 7 years old now.

I think I still have the shitty stamped multitool from a bike I put together as a teenager somewhere in the garage...

Low bar

I have two of those. One's from my old phone.

I keep mine in the same container with all my electronics screwdriver bits, seems like the sensible place for it to be

Goes great on a Keychain

nope, just a hoarder :)

Ifixit screwdrivers come with a bit for that.

a little repair kit with all these type of things are fuckin invaluable

I can only imagine NileRed putting this in his box of radioactive watch hands

If I have 5, what does that make me?

I still have this, but I have adhd so I have no idea where it is whenever I actually need it.

I just use a needle or something similar

I just use a paperclip. Most offices/shops/pharmacies deal with papers and have paperclips nearby. Keep in mind if youre traveling :)

Permanently Deleted

Mother fucker. I have one of these that I've been playing with all week, swearing to GOD if I don't put that shit away it's gonna vanish.

I just put it away where it belongs so I don't lose it.

what is that

Had to use a paperclip for mine. Didn't even come with one.

I keep one on my keychain, never know when you need to get a burner.

I keep mine in the back of my phone case. Easy way to never lose it haha

I just put mine on my key chain

I have an entire kit for tinkering with phones, and this is one of the tools it includes.

These are the only reason I don't throw away phone boxes

I used to work for Asurion, I got a dozen of them you can have .

Its in the paperwork for your SIM card or for your phone. Both is stored with other paperwork either in a file cabinet or a filing folder.

I bought a pack of a hundred of them and put several everywhere I thought I might look for one.

I've always liked the ones that come with OnePlus phones. Can't link (?) but they look like long smiley faces.

Never. My current and all previous phones have toothpicks stuck in the holes and knife marks all around the sim tray.

In my last two phones I have used eSIM, but I still have 6 of these in a neat row on a magnet above my desk.

I have this somewhere does that count?

I bought a box of them on AliExpress

Tool cabinets are a marvelous thing. I have a little thing squirreled away in a drawer of other tools, just the top of a box that a screen protector came in, that is just full of tiny specialized precision tools that I very seldom need.

yup. just needed it the other month and paperclipped it after searching in vain for an hour or so.

I have a few of them.

I have had one i keep on my keyring for 6 years. Recommended

Buy a goddamn sewing kit

Heard this fall off my side table like 4 days ago and haven’t located it yet lol

I have a few at home and a few at work. I don’t need them much anymore with esims, but a few of our users still have older phones.

Fucking US iPhones and their eSIM only design 😭

it's simple keep the box in you're cable cupboard (am trying to spawn British people /j)

Meh, I already keep a small paper clip in my wallet for clogged vapes, controller resets, SD cards, etc.

I have several. Not responsible, just ADHD.

I have mine on my keys

I've lost them before I've even used them.

Not responsible, I just work at Geek Squad

Have mine sitting in a dish on my desk right in front of me. It's what I use to pop off our Arlo doorbell to bring inside to charge it back up when the batteries are low.

I don't have mine, but I kind of do, most bit sets for electronics include a bit for Sim card ejectors.

In a bag with charger and other accessories. Don't recall actually using it more than once. Paper clips are the traditional solution.

Earring gang where you at

I'm not a responsible person, though, I'm too lazy to move that shit around often to have it lost outside my closet...

I keep mine on my keys :)

I think I still have the one from my last phone too

Not only i have one, i once made use of it to someone on a bus ride who randomly needed to swap the sim card. I happened to sit next to him.

Have it on my keys for years, never lost it.

You guys don’t have eSIM yet?
