inDropped $340 on a laser screed level for a 4,000 sq ft pour in Tulsa, and it paid for itself that same day
Read a thread on a concrete forum where a guy said the same thing, that the cheap levels cost him way more in callbacks than the good gear ever did. Once you're laying down that much square footage, a low spot means grinding or a patch kit, and that eats your profit fast. Sounds like the laser paid for itself before lunch.

inWarning: I heard a service guy in Phoenix say extended warranties are just prepaid repairs, and it made me rethink my plan
Yeah I did the same math and came out way ahead banking it myself.

inPro tip: the $45 shredder I grabbed at a garage sale cost me way more in the end
Garage sale stuff always costs double once you count the fix.

inA guy at Def Con in Vegas cloned my work badge in under 2 minutes and it made me rethink physical security
Did your security team even bother checking if those badges use rolling codes or static ones? I ran into the same thing at a past job where someone copied a coworker's badge with a cheap reader they bought online. What worked for us was getting a few of us together and showing our manager a live demo, because nothing gets a boss moving like watching their own door open from a copied card. We ended up switching to badges with encrypted chips and adding a PIN pad at the server room and badge readers that check in with the system instead of just trusting the card. It took about six months of pushing but the key was making it a group ask instead of one person complaining. Your faraday pouch is a smart quick fix for now, but the real win is getting your company to treat badges like keys instead of free giveaways.
