I have to pick at least 5 locks before my partner opens 5 locks with the keys.

(I included an extra 5 locks on my side, just in case, because I was feeling cocky 😋)

I remember the first time I picked a lock on night shift. It was with a hammer. Since then, I was able to learn how to pick locks nondestructively LOL ...and soon I was assigned locksmithing duty, changing locks, managing master keys, etc...

I guess you took the worst take 😺

Had only had very basic tools, and not much experience, but the door was open in 30 Seconds. I switched locks the same Day.

Next time, she gets the keys on a keyring so it's harder to keep track of which was already used 😋
(But it's already pretty impressive )

Anyway, you won! That's impressive despite the random factor.

(I had to use those at work until we switched to Abus. Better qualitiy, shitty company)

The snap in the corner is for a grounding strap. Those mats are typically used for working on electronics. I figured you might have used it for that too before repurposing it.
