over_clox comments on LPT: If you have a lot of loose zip ties, well cut the head off of one and zip the rest onto that!

True, but this makes it way easier to keep count while also keeping colors arranged.

That one supply manager from the office that decided every item needs to be individually counted....they spend thousands in labor to save $6 every year.

You ever been on a team that installed a whole new system and all new Ethernet lines at a bank? I have, twice. We're the kinda guys that arrange what they call cableporn on the internet.

If you gotta run 32 Ethernet lines for a distance of 200 feet, those zip ties have to be evenly and sensibly spaced, so it's part measuring, dividing out, and wait for it...

Counting.
