Overheard a home owner say "you just pull the wires through"... made me laugh
Was on a job in Bakersfield last week. Customer saw me with my fish tape and said that. I just smiled. Pulling coax through a finished wall in a 90s house is never simple. Not with those staple guns they used back then. Took me 45 minutes to get one line from basement to attic. Has anyone else dealt with people thinking this job is easy?

Just pull the wires through" is what folks say before they hit their first staple. Ninety percent of my time on those old houses is fighting staples and fire caulk that was smeared everywhere. A good trick is to use a strong magnet on a stick to find the staples before you even start fishing.

Who actually enjoys playing hide and seek with nails in the dark?
