Spent 4 hours untangling a mess in an attic in Phoenix last Tuesday

Had my best day in 6 months on a new build in Gilbert last Thursday. The builder actually left a pull string in every drop and the drywall wasn't up yet, so I ran all 12 lines in under 3 hours. Does anyone else ever get suspicious when a job goes that smooth or just me?

- You know what, my buddy Mike had something like that happen. He's a low voltage guy like us, does mostly security cams and access control. He gets this call for a simple three camera install in a brand new house in Chandler, place is still just studs and plywood. The homeowner hands him a diagram that's literally drawn on a napkin with a green highlighter but somehow it was perfectly to scale. Mike says he was done with all the fishing and mounting in like 90 minutes, had to just sit in his truck for an hour to make it look like he actually worked a full day. Thing is, he called me later that night all paranoid like "dude, I think I'm in a hidden camera show or something because that was too easy.

Mike probably had better luck cause that napkin was drawn by an architect who builds houses for a living.

Man that's too REAL. I totally get the paranoia.
