Vent: I was at a local business meetup in Austin and a guy told me his 5 person company hit $2 million in revenue just by focusing on one niche service.

I used to think a bird feeder was just a bird feeder, but a neighbor in Phoenix set me straight

I thought the 'burp your jar' advice for sauerkraut was just a silly trend, but after my third batch exploded all over my kitchen ceiling in Portland, I'm a believer.

I just switched from a gas mower to a push reel mower for my small yard

I get the quiet part, but man my back was killing me after a week. Switched back to electric and never looked back lol.

I finally asked my boss for a raise after my project saved the company $12,000

Reminds me of a guy who tracked coffee waste savings... got a new chair out of it.

I finally saw the point of the weird statue in the town square

Man, that makes me wonder how many of these pieces only work in bad weather, like when it's raining or foggy.

Our supplier's batch of jute webbing failed early because management ignored our moisture content warnings.

Yeah, I mean you can spot check the high risk stuff. Like with jute, just throw a moisture meter on it when it comes off the truck. Takes two seconds and saves you from the big mess.

A trainer in Colorado told me my clinch was too far forward on a hind shoe. I moved it back an inch and the horse stopped forging.

Wait, but is it really that simple though? I mean sometimes trainers just get lucky with their advice and we act like it's some big deal. No offense to @drew_reed62, but I've seen people follow a tip that works once and then it totally fails the next time. Maybe it's just me, but I'm always a little suspicious of those "aha" moments that seem too easy.
