Crossed 1000 hours on a single pressure vessel weld log today

It's a 36-inch steam drum for a power plant retrofit. The number hit me because it's not just hours, it's every single inch of that seam done to code. Anyone else get that weird feeling when a job's paperwork becomes a real milestone?

A thousand hours on one weld log is insane. That's like welding for a solid year of 40-hour weeks.

Bet they're counting every single minute the machine is on, even idle time. Makes the number look way more hardcore than actual arc-on time.
