I have plenty of things to say about this, but I thought it might be fun.

You know you were at a carseat check when your hands are blistered and cut up.


Your turn.

When you are *finally* sick of talking about car seats when your S/O asks how your day went.

You're doing laundry and find a locking clip in your pocket.

You finally realize your hands are shaky because you haven't eaten in six hours.

You come home smelling faintly of urine and French fries.

You realize that all you've done all day is install the same seat over and over again!

(I had a check where I installed 10 AO/AOE/3 in 1 clones in a row all RF!)

Your jeans no longer have knees in them. (So much for wearing comfy jeans to checks!)

I can answer the back issue, in a sedan with a tough install, I would brace my back against the roof of the vehicle.

You come home beaming from ear to ear because you turned at least 4 little kids from FF to RF and re-boostered at least 3. Plus got 3 more to (hopefully) replace expired seats.

You know that because of you personally, there are at least 8-10 kids riding much safer out there

Sent from my iPod touch, sorry for any auto-correct typos!

Well, Britax was after my time mostly(I took the class in '99) so no RF tether.
