Just hit 10,000 bricks laid on this one wall. I did not plan that.

I'm working a retaining wall job down in Smithville, stacked sandstone. I kept a rough count in my head but never expected to actually hit a round number. At 4:30 Friday I set the last row and my tally hit exactly 10,004 bricks. My foreman laughed and said I should buy a lottery ticket. Has anyone else hit a weird milestone on a job that caught you off guard like that?

10,000 bricks not 10,004. Might want to double check your math before you brag about a round number.

Used to swear by round numbers but that count changed my mind.

Caught me slipping with the count, I've been known to miscount my own fries at work too. Guess that's on me, @henderson.oscar.
