In July 2025, many of us are taking part in the 30-Day “Tool” Coach4aday Challenge. Each day, the challenge encourages participants to share a tool that can help people with productivity, organization, and communication. Tools are essential in many occupations and hobbies. Today my choice is going to be a tool used by glaziers called a SUCTION CUP.
Several years ago, I was sitting by a window inside a McDonald’s when a man approached and asked if I would mind moving to another table. He explained that he was a glazier—a professional who installs and repairs windows—and that the one next to me was scheduled to be removed. After I moved, he and a coworker used suction cups to carefully lift the window out.
It was the first time I had of that career title.
Tool-30 Day Challenge Guidelines
As with previous challenges, participants are encouraged to adapt the guidelines to fit their own circumstances. If you can, commit to sharing something about a tool in July.
- Record something about a particular tool. It can be physical or digital. It may also be something that has been replaced with advanced technology.
- Share with a challenge partner if you have one.
- Join the conversation by posting on social media with the hashtag #Coach4adayChallenge
July 19-Suction Cups
A glazier uses a suction cup to securely grip and lift large panes of glass without directly handling the surface. This tool allows for safer, more controlled installation or removal of windows and minimizes the risk of breakage or injury. Ironically the tool does not really use suction.
Here is short video on how they work.
