Hanging oversized shackles, hooks etc is just as as truck nuts

One of my old employees told me not to buy another ball hitch for my truck when I needed a little more drop for a trailer. Next day, he shows up to work with one. When I went to give it back, he told me he'd just gone to Wal Mart and parked beside a guy who had one on his truck and took it for me. I've tried to remember that when it comes to putting stuff in the bed of my truck (or a hitch). For the record, I did give that hitch away to a friend who was moving and needed it.
