Hit 500 welds on my first big retube job today
Was working on a retube down at the Marathon refinery in Galveston this week and I finally passed 500 completed welds on a single job. I've been in the trade about 4 years now but this was my first time being the lead fitter on a retube. The boss just said "you're on it" and walked away Tuesday morning. I kept a tally on a scrap piece of 1/4 plate and hit it this afternoon around 3pm. Did you guys count your welds on your first big job or am I just a nerd about this?

Aw man, that's awesome! Totally not a nerd for keeping a tally, I'd have done the same thing honestly. It's like a little way to mark your progress and make the grind feel real. 500 is a solid milestone, especially when you're the lead on a job like that.
