Update: My spouse thinks repair jobs are quick, but they're not

Honestly, many folks claim having family help out saves time. Tbh, it slows me down when my kid tries to hand me tools while I'm aligning a shutter.

Losing count every time is the worst. I heard on a podcast once that our brains need full focus for measuring and stuff, and any break ruins it. Honestly, that's why help from family can backfire, even if they mean well. It adds little pauses that mess up your whole system. So yeah, repairs end up taking way longer than anyone plans.

the tools thing is so real. my partner handing me stuff while I'm measuring throws me off and I lose count every time.
