Rant: The lead tech who insisted on crimping instead of compression fittings was wrong

After 6 months of callbacks on one apartment complex in Phoenix, I finally convinced my boss to switch us to compression fittings and we haven't had a single signal loss since - has anyone else dealt with a stubborn coworker who refuses to update their methods?

Man my buddy had the same fight with his old man at their shop, took him a year and a literal fire before they finally switched over.

Aw man, that hurts to hear. I've seen the same kind of stubbornness in my line of work where people just won't update their safety gear or methods until something bad forces their hand. It's a bummer because your buddy had to go through all that stress and a fire just to get his old man to see reason. But hey, at least they finally got it sorted out, right? Better late than never, I guess.
