Showerthought: My old boss in Cleveland told me to always run a second wire for future use.

He said, 'Kevin, you'll thank me when they want to add a camera or a glass break sensor in two years.' I thought it was a waste of time and wire back then. Now, I've had to go back to three jobs from 2018 to add things, and that extra wire saved hours of fishing. Anyone else have an old piece of advice that seemed pointless but paid off later?

Man, that's so true it hurts. It's not just about saving time later, it's about looking like a genius to the client when you can add something in an hour instead of a day. @the_sarah knows the pain of not having that wire ready to go.
