Every turn crew has blind spots. Ours, historically: the stove drip pans, the tub caulk line, the closet door guide, the toilet seat, and the smoke alarm date. Name yours — the five items your turns miss until a pre-walk finds them — so the rest of us can add them to the list before an inspector does.

The five in the opening post are ours and they are embarrassingly consistent — especially the smoke alarm date, which hides in plain sight on a device the crew walked past six times. Blind spots are never about skill; they are about what the checklist makes the eye look for, and what it lets the eye skip. Steal each other's lists freely — that is what this thread is for. Name your turn crew's five blind spots — the items that only ever get caught on the pre-walk?
