A homeowner in Phoenix said my wall plate installs looked 'rushed' and it stung.

They pointed out my screw slots weren't all vertical, which I'd honestly never considered. Do you guys have a specific method for that, or is it just about taking an extra second?

Vertical screws are a weird flex, honestly.

My kids' toy box is a testament to horizontal chaos.

Is it really that deep though? People get worked up over the dumbest stuff. It's just screws, they hold things together. Making a big deal about which way they point feels like looking for something to be mad about. Save the strong opinions for actual problems.
