Had to choose between fishing a line or cutting a new hole in a finished ceiling today

The customer really didn't want a patch, so I spent 45 minutes with the fish tape and got it through a tight joist bay. What's your go-to move when you're up against a wall like that?

Wait, fish tape? Like the stuff for pulling wires? That’s a whole new level of DIY panic right there. I mean, what were you even trying to fix that needed that? Maybe it’s just me but that sounds like a story with a trip to the hardware store and a lot of regret.
