Shoutout to the old-timer who saw me using a 3/8 drive on a stuck injector bolt

He just shook his head and said, 'Kid, that's a half-inch job, you're gonna round it off.' Has anyone else had a similar 'right tool' wake-up call?

Tell me about it, @ellis.hayden. That moment you realize you trusted the wrong person with a project and it all falls apart. Like when you give someone the keys to a group task and they ghost for a week. Or when you share a rough idea too early and someone runs with it like it was theirs all along. Makes you want to handle everything solo next time, even though that's its own kind of mess.
