Old school fixers and the gray area of warranty stickers
I used to see guys break seals all the time to fix things, no questions asked. Now with all the digital locks, it feels like we're crossing a line just to do our job.

Just learned the override codes, simple as that.

Working at Ray's Auto in 2005, we cracked seals, but digital locks made me rethink everything.

Your point about digital locks making you rethink everything, @dakota_rodriguez, reminds me of my friend Chris. He was a locksmith for years and laughed at electronic systems until a job last summer. A client had a smart lock on their garage that wouldn't open, and Chris's old tricks did nothing. He had to call the maker for a code update, which blew his mind. He said it felt like starting over from scratch, just like your Ray's Auto story. Now he carries a tablet to jobs, not just picks.
