Hot take: the messy bench at the shop in Reno taught me more than any tidy setup video
I stopped by a repair shop in Reno last month to pick up a power supply and the owner's bench was a disaster, screws everywhere, three half-torn laptops, a soldering iron resting on a bean can. My gut said run, but I watched him find a shorted cap in under 4 minutes because every tool he needed was already out in the open. I think the whole "clean desk, clean mind" thing gets pushed way too hard on new techs, and it makes people spend 30 minutes putting stuff away mid-job instead of fixing the machine. His words were "if I can't see it, I don't own it." Do any of you actually work faster on a cluttered bench, or am I just trying to justify mine?
