I finally had a perfect install day after a string of disasters

Last Tuesday I got three jobs in a row that went smooth as butter. First house had a clear drop from the pole, no tree branches in the way, and the homeowner even had the crawlspace cleared out for me. Second stop was a new build where the builder left conduit already run from the street to the side of the house. Third was a simple swap of an old cable box that took maybe 15 minutes. I was back at the shop by 2pm which never happens. What's the best luck streak you guys have had on a single route?

That's a nice run for sure but honestly those kind of perfect days make me nervous now. Every time I get three easy jobs in a row I know the next day is going to be some nightmare attic crawl in August or a customer who wants me to explain why their Netflix buffers for the third time. You probably already have a mess waiting for you tomorrow. The universe doesn't let techs stack wins like that without balancing the scales. Hope you enjoyed it while it lasted.

Not really, man. I think you can just have a good day without some cosmic debt. Some days the work just lines up and that's okay.
