Dude same thing happened to me with a rent check and they wouldn't waive the fee either lmao

lol @rileyowens I swear that "report_edit_edit_final_v2" thing is a universal struggle. I read somewhere that some teams just use dates and initials in the file name to avoid that mess, like "report_2025_02_AM". still chaotic but at least you can sort by date haha.

Foil is a tool, not a crutch. I switched to butcher paper a few years back and never went back to foil for brisket. Paper lets it breathe just enough to keep the bark from turning into mush, but still pushes through the stall. Texas crutch works either way, but paper gives you a better crust at the end.

40% drop over six weeks sounds like you're tracking it way too close. Missed a few deadlines because of bad wifi and shaky tables, sure, but calling it a career wreck seems a bit much. Sometimes the vibe of a busy spot fires you up more than a quiet room would anyway.

@brianm27 The newspaper thing is wild, but the breaker not tripping makes sense - old two wire systems don't give it anything to trip on without a proper ground path. At least you found it before anything caught fire.
