Debate: Did that simple drawing actually take 4 hours or was it just me?
I had to draft a basic floor plan for a small bathroom remodel, figured it would be a 1 hour job tops. Ended up spending 4 hours fixing ceiling heights and weird corner angles that the field measurements missed. My coworker says I should have just eyeballed it and let the contractor sort it out on site. But I feel like the more time you put into the draft up front, the fewer problems you get later. Has anyone else run into this where a quick project turns into a half day slog?

Honestly, this is one of those things where the hidden details always take way longer than the main task. Tbh, it's like cleaning your house for guests - you think you just need to vacuum and wipe counters, but then you end up scrubbing baseboards because you noticed they're dusty.

Oh man, yeah, I used to totally brush off stuff like that but you're so right!
