inMy desk was a mess for months until I moved one thing
My buddy Mark had his router tucked behind his TV stand for years. His wifi in the kitchen was basically useless, just one bar. He finally ran a longer cable and put the router on a bookshelf in the hallway, a totally central spot. Now he gets full signal everywhere, even out on the patio. It was such a dumb little fix for a daily annoyance.

inMy client insisted on a 'corporate blue' that looked like a bruise on screen
Read an article about how screens can't show some Pantone colors right.

inSpecial effects makeup from a party scared a cashier
Haha that's amazing! Honestly that clerk was probably running through every possible scenario in his head at once. Like is this a prank, is this real, should I offer help, what's the right thing to do here. You gave him a story he'll tell forever, and you got a free side of awkward tension with your gas purchase. Perfect zombie walk bonus round.

inHeard a guy at the supply house say you can skip the power stretcher on small rooms
Tell you what, I had to tear out a hallway job last year for that exact reason. Homeowner said the previous guy "saved time" by knee kicking a simple rectangle. Looked okay for a few months, then waves showed up you could trip on. Ended up costing me a full day to rip and re-stretch it right. Honestly, some guys just don't want to carry the tool in the house.
