Had to replace the breaker on our range three times before I realized the wire was loose

Spent a whole Saturday swapping out a fried breaker on the Garland at work. New one popped after a lunch rush. Bought another. Popped again. Called an electrician buddy and he was like 'did you even check the lug?' Tightened the connection and it's been fine for 5 months now. Makes me wonder how many breakers I've thrown money at for no reason. Anyone else ever chase a ghost like that?

Tightened every connection in the panel when that happened to my dryer and it's been solid since. Always check the simple stuff first now.

Maybe the ghosts are just bad wiring with good timing.
