What 🪚 means

A rectangular object that has a wooden handle on one end and a slightly tapering design carried out in the rest of the blade that is attached to this handle.

The 🪚 Carpentry Straw emoji represents carpentry, as the name suggests. However, it could also mean chopping down something, cutting down trees, cutting someone in between as they speak, or even famous phrases that revolve around a carpenter and his tools.

How and when to use it

If someone's playing the blame game for something they could've personally changed or done better, you can use 🪚 either while texting them or someone else about it. For example, "Hey, look. Don't play the bad carpenter, k? 🪚 You could've done it better by all means".
You can also use 🪚 to indicate that you have loads of pending or procrastinated work to finish. How? - "Nah. I'll text ya later. Got lotta wood to chop! 🪚" (this phrase works both literally and metaphorically).
If you're texting your bestie/partner/parent about how someone cut you in the middle of something, you can use 🪚 (the saw essentially indicates how brutal and unnecessary the cutting was). For instance, "Can you believe that guy?! I was in the middle of a presentation and he CUT ME OFF to say something stupid like he does always! 🪚".
You can also use 🪚 while suggesting someone to cut down on something too - "Listen. You better cut down on your sugar if you want to get in shape before the wedding 🪚".
