Back when I fixed cars by listening, not just reading codes.
In my early years, figuring out engine problems meant getting under the hood and listening for clues. I gave that up for digital tools because they are more precise, but I miss the hands-on feel. Do you guys ever try to hear the issue before you plug in the scanner?

My scanner told me the milk was fine, but my nose said otherwise. Guess we're trusting the wrong senses now?

Totally, my scanner is my first move now every single time. It just cuts out all the guesswork.

Watch people in a store now. They grab that scanner before even looking at the item. Saw a woman scan a milk carton to check the date, like the printed date wasn't good enough. Another guy scanned a shirt tag to see if it was his size, ignoring the label right there. We're letting machines do all the noticing for us. It's a weird kind of lazy genius.
