Today I learned that people who make a career dealing with bureaucratic nonsense greatly desire methods to more efficiently complete said nonsense, but will balk at any method that eliminates the need for it.

Today I learned that when a shop uses a socket slightly too big, along with an air wrench, to over tighten and distort your lug nuts to the point that the proper wrench will no longer fit on the nuts, you are screwed.

TIL(actually the last few days) that New England rednecks are a whole different thing compared to west coast rednecks.

I don't have one of those, just 7/8 socket. I have a new set of lugs coming tomorrow, so I'll deal with swapping them out this weekend.

I have a slightly more modern one, but I don't think that's an option. The "chrome" piece that covers the face of the aluminum rim is plastic.
