Just realized our new inventory scanner was set to count in dozens, not units

We were doing our first big stock check with a brand new system last Tuesday, and I was in our main warehouse in Akron. The numbers were way off, showing we had way too much of everything. I spent a solid hour thinking we had a major theft problem or a shipping error. Turns out, the default setting on the scanner was for 'dozens' and nobody, including me, had checked that box during setup. We had to recount everything by hand for about 300 SKUs. It was a long night. Has anyone else run into a simple setting that threw off your whole process?

Question about crawl spaces in older Atlanta neighborhoods

Last month I had a job in Virginia Highland, one of those historic districts with houses from the 1920s. The crawl space was maybe 18 inches high at best, full of red clay that turned to mud. I was on my belly for two hours trying to fish a line through a floor joist, and my drill battery died halfway through. The homeowner kept asking why it was taking so long over the baby monitor they had down there. Honestly, I almost quit the trade that day. What do you guys use for light and power in those tight, wet spots where you can't even turn your head? I need a better setup before my next call in Inman Park.

My sister's wedding cake in Portland completely changed how I handle buttercream.

PSA: I just read that the pressure inside the Earth's core is over 360 million times the air pressure at sea level, which is a fact that absolutely blew my mind.

I found this in a geology textbook from the local library, and it makes our surface rock collecting seem like we're just scratching the planet's surface, doesn't it?

I was at the Corning Museum of Glass last weekend and saw a lot of new artists using a lot of bright, almost neon, colors in their work.

Had to pick between a corded or cordless circular saw for a deck rebuild in Spokane... went cordless and it was a mixed bag.

Local shop's demo on lead buildup flipped my view on solvent choice

A gunsmith near me did a free clinic showing what different solvents do to fouling over time. I always grabbed whatever was cheap, but seeing the crud left behind by some brands convinced me to pay more for quality. Which solvent do you find works best for heavy lead without harming the barrel?
