My FAK have had one since. Heck, last week, the company MD stopped by my office after she cleared me to go back to work - I opened MY first aid drawer, and she started laughing - I had more dressings for major trauma than she does in the exam room!! (I have thoraxic trauma dressings in there) PLUS I have TWO company 1st aid kits on the wall in my office - the current (I'm one of the floor wardens) and the one therey replaced (pulled all the out of date stuff - but the bandages and dressings etc are still good - she also got a chuckle that I had like 3-4 EMT shears sitting there (what can I say - you can get a box of 50 for like $20-25)
