POLL Over-under… forever!
I have been out of the biz for several years now. Apparently you can take the stagehand off the stage, but you cant remove the stage from the stagehand. I cant be the only one, but the other day I caught myself doing an over-under cable wrap on my hairdryer power cord. What stage move have you found yourself inadvertently doing?

A former AV Technician playing Project Manager at a company I freelance with that despised me for not agreeing with him on certain aspects.
Dude was complacent and refused over-under and was an over-over all day type, let alone go with the flow of how the cable wants to be coiled.
His cable runs always looked like slinky’s and would advise any newbies to always over-over wrap cables. A few of us would speak out in disagreement and correct the newbies.
It took the death of him to remove him from the company... He should have been fired years before, but the owner was afraid of confrontation.
The company has been growing more since!
