The things we did before battery powered hand tools. We should go back to those days and toughen up some kids.

Agreed
All the youngsters at work they cant do anything without their impact guns.
Watched one of them use a 1/2" drive battery impact to change six 1/4" bolts.
They look at me like I'm stupid and they call me stubborn for doing that with wrenches and ratchets.

Oh well.

I learned from an old Army lineman back when i started. A lazy man is an efficient man. He was far from efficient, but that really stuck with me. The job can go a whole lot faster with the right tool.

Now I feel bad for using my 3/8” Milwaukee to take the 4 seat bolts out when I change out haul truck seats lol.

And when your in out in one of the storage buildings and snap a bolt, now someone has to walk back to the shop to replace it.
