Had a building super call me out on my rail lube method after 8 years
I was spraying WD-40 on guide rails for years until this old super in a Bronx building showed me the sticky residue it leaves behind. He handed me a can of chain lube and told me to try it for a week, anyone else ever get humbled by a building super on a basic job?

Yeah that's rough but honestly those old supers know their stuff. I got called out on the same thing like 5 years ago and felt like an idiot for a week. They've seen it all and they're usually right.

Four years in the trades and I finally learned that the cheap shortcut is almost always the wrong one. It's wild how that mentality creeps into everything, not just elevators.
