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'm very responsible

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

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

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

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.

You guys aren't just using eSIMs?

Yay, what's my prize?

iFIXIT kits include a bit that lets you eject sim trays

aka fancy paperclip

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

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

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.

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

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

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

this made me feel good about myself, thanks

We have a whole keyring full of them at work

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

I'm responsible for a lot of things

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

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

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.

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

disorganized paperclip gang sound off!

This is why us millennials keep our phone boxes

I keep mine in my phone case.

There's always the trusty toothpick

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.

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

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

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 store mine between my phone and phone case.

Low bar

I never kept mine and used a needle instead

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.

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.

Clip gang unite!

I just use a needle or something similar

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

nope, just a hoarder :)

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

Ifixit screwdrivers come with a bit for that.

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

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

I use a heroin syringe.

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

If I have 5, what does that make me?

I just put mine on my key chain

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

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.

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

what is that

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.

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

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

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

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

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

I have this somewhere does that count?

I know exactly where two of these are in my desk.

You know, just in case.

I have a few of them.

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Not responsible, I just work at Geek Squad

Buy a goddamn sewing kit

I keep mine on my keys :)

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

Fucking US iPhones and their eSIM only design 😭

Earring gang where you at

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

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.

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

I have several. Not responsible, just ADHD.

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

You guys don’t have eSIM yet?

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.
