I just finished my 1,000th square foot of broom finish this month

I was adding up the tickets from a bunch of small driveways and patios, and the calculator stopped me cold at 1,000 exactly. It felt weirdly big for a slow season, and now I'm wondering if I should buy a lottery ticket. What's the strangest round number you've ever hit on a job?

Hit a round number like that once on a pipe run. Took it as a sign to just pack up for the day. Sometimes the math gives you a clean break.

Did @tylergrant's calculator finally give him a hall pass to go home early?

Check if the number felt like a real milestone or just a neat trick of the math. That kind of perfect round number can mess with your head either way. I'd be staring at the calculator for a solid minute.
