    Better work with the cabling, perhaps. In this picture you can see that there’s a new work box in the drywall so he’s running hidden cables. There could be drywall patching or he’s really good at making the holes so there doesn’t need to be patching.

    He could do more types of mounts than this guy is used to.

    He could be faster.

    Is that you’re completely unimaginative so you can’t come up with ways someone might be better or do you have so little respect for trades that you think there can’t be skill involved?

      Why the hostility? I would’ve asked this question if they hadn’t, and I don’t consider myself unimaginative or disrespectful. Just uninformed…

        Who notices that someone is better at mounting tvs? How does one notice this? What is this made up scenario?

        Do you honestly think someone asking, “What is this made up scenario?” is asking their question in good faith?

          Before this thread, I thought “mounting a tv” just meant nailing the support into the wall and screwing the tv into the support. I chose to read their comment as being incredulous about a random post on the internet, which is entirely reasonable. It would be easy enough to lash out at random people on the internet but I figured I’d try to be positive on a post about positivity lol
