Figured i'd post this craziness lol. Now, i am really good at looking at stuff and discerning what i need to do and what is involved for my job. Sadly i had a video and for some reason i deleted it from my phone. I looked at a job maybe a few weeks ago or less...not sure. In my career jobs tend to blend together and details can get crossed. It happens. This job i was absolutely sure what i saw and figured how to get wiring to the roof. I came back at the later date to do the actual install and it was NOT what i remembered lol. I videoed into a cavity of a dead space/bump out to get onto the roof. I knew i'd have to drill down through the bump out to get wiring fished through to the drop ceiling below. When i came back, it was solid block with a steel I beam above it. There was no way humanly possible to do it lol. What the hell did i look at the first time? I mean i spent a good deal of time looking at this to come up with a game plan. So day of plan...it went South lol. I spent a good few minutes staring at this wondering what did i look at the first time? There is no way i couldn't see what i saw upon the return trip. Did my brain imagine something that was not there? You hear of time slippage and things changing almost without us noticing...almost. I know i am getting older but, am i getting that bad where i am inserting random things in place of actual thoughts? Damn...i hope not lol. Never had this happen in my almost 30 years of electrical work. I look at something and it's spot on. This one had me dumbfounded. I did find another path up to the roof for their signs, but still...where did that memory come from lol. Not paranormal but i am leaning to brain slippage. That is a very, very scary thought to me as i need my wits about me to do my job. When things turn out to Not be as they are seen...vividly...oh my. Sorry for the funky rant but it really made me stand back a few minutes and rethink things. It is amazing (and scary) how the brain can work like that. Anyone else have something like that happen?
