Ill try to keep this as short as possible, so feel free to ask additional questions.

I have a junction with 4 wires coming into it. I updated the old wiring to new 12/3 while replacing the outlets and i rewired all the blacks together, whites together, grounds together (which is how it was when i took it apart, i thought). Now when i turned on the breaker, all lines are reading hot, but neither outlet and the pull string light coming off it are working. Double checked all connections. 3 lines total run off that pull string light and all three also reading hot.

Am i missing something? Should all the neutrals not be together? Any guidance appreciated!

Every week, sometimes twice, Ive come in to get a coffee where you work. For at least a month, maybe two, I saw you almost every time. I got my hopes up that all that eye contact meant something...

Its been 2 or 3 weeks now since Ive seen you... whered you go? You were one of the good parts of my week.
