Just hit 500 hours of bottom time this year. That number hit me.

Logged it last night after a long day on the Lake Michigan intake lines. Boss just handed me the sheet. Been grinding since January, mostly cold, dark work. Never kept track before. Makes you think about all the time spent down there. Anyone else ever get surprised by their own logbook totals?

Numbers sneak up on you in all kinds of work.

Man, that's a heavy number to see all at once... all those hours in the dark. It really puts the grind into perspective when it's totaled up like that. You must have seen some things down there on those lines. It's a quiet kind of work that most people never even think about. Seeing it logged makes it real in a different way.

500 hours of bottom time" is wild. My logbook is mostly just me trying to remember what I had for lunch.
