Wait, her best friend never spoke to her again? That part hit me hard, not just the guy sneaking in. Losing your best friend over one dumb night at 15 would mess anyone up for life. Your mom probably never told you that part because it still hurts to think about. It kind of makes sense why she went straight to a full ban instead of just talking to you about it.

Ever tried pre-cooling the coolers with frozen water bottles the night before? That trick saved me when our fridge crapped out during a brunch rush. Two coolers plus some blocked off space and we rode it out fine.

That line about not letting the tester warm up hit home for me because I did the exact same thing for years without knowing it. The old guy who trained me never mentioned it once, so I just plugged in and started shooting, and my slow speeds were all over the place. Good on you for actually listening to the Boise tech instead of digging in, that kind of advice is worth more than the test itself.
