Customer told me my seams were showing and I had to redo an entire room in Arlington

Lady called me out on a seam that was maybe 1/16th of an inch off. I thought she was being picky but she was right - I was rushing the tuck job. Now I take an extra minute per seam to back-roll the edges before I glue. Saves me callbacks. Any of you guys do that or still just tuck and go?

That "1/16th of an inch off" thing reminds me of a kitchen backsplash I did last year. The homeowner had me redo a full sheet because a single tile was like a hair crooked. I was SO mad at first, but then I realized she was standing there watching me from that exact angle all day. Now I always check the SEAMS from the doorway before I even clean up. It's amazing what a different perspective does.

Tbh is it really that serious tho? A hair crooked is still gonna function the same lol. I get if it was super obvious but redoing a whole sheet seems extra.
