Wait, he thought a pothos was basically a cactus? That's like feeding a fish like a hamster, oh my god. The daily watering thing would kill pretty much anything in Phoenix, even the tough stuff.

Oh trust me, I've seen that exact thing happen more times than I can count. The old-timer at my shop talked up his special way of hanging pictures for weeks, and when I finally asked him to show me, he just shrugged and said he eyeballs it like everyone else. I remember one guy swore his framing method kept his prints flat for years, but when I peeked at his own basement, everything was wavy and buckled. It's like some folks just like the sound of their own advice, you know?

Honestly, @the_hayden is right about the wifi there, but who cares if he untagged himself? It's not like a blurry Getty group shot is gonna tank his career. Ngl, it sounds more like a slow Tuesday than a crisis.

And I had a buddy who spent a whole WEEKEND scrubbing his old Myspace and Twitter after a job interviewer brought up a joke he posted in 2009. It was like a half-baked pun about a celebrity, not even mean, but the interviewer had screenshotted it and printed it out. He deleted everything, changed his handle, the whole nine yards. Now he just posts pictures of his dog and nothing else. I still leave mine up because I figure the cringe is part of the charm, but that made me real careful about what I type now.

Think about what that vent is actually blowing OUT of it. In hotels, the HVAC runs almost nonstop, and it's not just dry air, it's got dust and cleaning chemicals and sometimes even tiny oil particles from the kitchen exhaust if the ductwork is shared. That film lands right on your wet mud and messes with the bond. I did a job near a pool once, the chlorine air ate through regular joint compound in a month. So it might not be the drying speed, it's the CONTAMINANTS in the air. Try wiping the corner down with a damp rag and letting it dry completely before you even tape it. Or use a setting compound with a little extra water mixed in to slow the cure down. That vent is basically a tiny wind tunnel with a chemistry set attached.
