Just hit 500 side gig cleanings and I'm honestly shocked

I started my own house cleaning thing about 2 years ago and I never really kept count until last week. I was going through my old calendar and realized I've done over 500 individual cleanings. That's crazy to me because I remember barely scraping by the first 3 months. Most of my regulars are in the south part of town near the river, but I drive all over now. What surprised me most is how many people actually stick with you and tip extra around the holidays. Has anyone else tracked their numbers and had it hit them different than expected?

500 jobs in two years is solid, that's like every other day.

500 jobs in two years? That math doesn't add up for me. 500 divided by 730 days is like 0.68 jobs a day, not one every other day. Unless you mean business days, then it's like one job every three or four days. I dunno, maybe my math is off but it seems way slower than that.

Divide by 730 but weekends probably don't count, simple.
