My light leaks went from cool to ugly when I switched labs

That felt thing is real, the rollers grab it and before you know it the door seal is gone. Worth asking the lab to tape the door on every roll, not just the first one, because once that felt is chewed up it keeps snagging. A cheap fix is to tape it yourself before you drop it off.

Am I the only one who learned to tap a stuck compressor relay with a screwdriver handle back in 2009?

Man, I still do this on my garage fridge every spring.

Just realized the hostel wifi in Medellin was ruining my client calls

That hostel wifi issue sounds so annoying, especially when you're losing money on client calls. I've booked places with hundreds of good reviews and still ended up with wifi that barely loaded a page. Now I just message the host and ask for an upload speed test before I pay, and most of them are happy to send a screenshot.

Saw a repair bench in Seattle with 14 lenses on it, all tagged 'do not touch'

A whole week between lenses? Dude must have the patience of a saint or way too much free time.
