inDoor limit switch gremlin took me two shifts to find
Ngl that transducer tip is gold. Had a similar gremlin on an old Otis where the car would randomly skip floors when the building got warm in the afternoon. Swapped cards, tweaked the brake, even redid the wiring. Turned out the limit switch bracket had worked itself loose by like a mil and a half over years of vibration. Temp change made the metal expand just enough to screw the timing. Felt like an idiot for two days over a bolt and a washer.

inPhone in the freezer really does work, despite what the podcast said
Always figured it was just some weird flex, but the hassle of walking to the freezer and waiting for it to thaw is real. That extra 60 seconds of cold air is enough to make you think twice. Kind of sold on the method now, not gonna lie.

inFound a 1982 estimate slip in an old door panel, labor was $18 an hour
Whoa, that's a FUN find! I'd probably just find an old gas receipt and a french fry back there. And yeah, $18 an hour sounds like a dream until you remember we'd also have to paint a whole car in a weekend, which I'd DEFINITELY mess up.
