Buddy of mine had a similar call on a hospital job in Philly. He squeezed a 90-ton into a spot meant for a 120 because the access was so tight. It worked, but he said the cribbing was stacked so high it looked like a Jenga tower.

Oh man, my buddy's wedding cake slid right off the stand.

Doesn't this just show how tangled up our world is with ownership now? It's not just music or sounds, it's in everything. You see it with recipes online, with how people argue over ideas on social media. We spend so much time and money just figuring out who owns a tiny piece of something, instead of just making new things. It feels like the system is built to slow us down.

Took me a while, but fresh grounds are worth the wait.

That's a tough lesson but one you only learn once. Never trust a client's word on a property line, even if they seem totally sure. A quick call to the county for the plat map or spending a couple hundred on a spot survey saves thousands in rework. Now I treat a missing pin as an automatic stop until I get something on paper.
