Hit 150 chimneys swept this season and I'm honestly shocked

Started keeping count back in October just out of curiosity but seeing that number on my notepad today made me realize how many little jobs I've been saying yes to, has anyone else tracked their yearly count and been surprised?

Ngl I'd be tempted to write little jokes on my notepad next to each one. Like 'chimney #137 - this one tried to fight me.'

Ah actually @elizabethf85 those little notebooks are kinda sacred on jobs like this... you're not supposed to write jokes on them because they go back to the foreman or the city inspector later. My buddy did that once with a funny note about a crooked pipe and the site manager was NOT amused. They use those notebooks to double check what was done and if there's any safety issues. Better to keep the jokes in your head or on your phone if you gotta scribble something silly down. But your idea would make a good coffee table book though... "Confessions of a Chimney Sweep" or something like that.
