Dang, a tablespoon after a whole week?

Oh man, @rose_grant78, it's just a knife sharpening not brain surgery lol. I've done it like twice and my knives still cut stuff fine even if the angle is all over the place. Half the time I probably just make it duller but whatever, they still work.

Is it actually good though, or is it just not terrible? I tried freezing rice once and it turned into a gluey mess that stuck together in one sad brick. Worked okay for fried rice after I smashed it apart, but not really worth the freezer space. You do you, grandma I guess.

Just gently correct you on one thing there - those interval logs aren't just for insurance. They're actually required by OSHA if you're working under their regulations, which most commercial outfits in Port Arthur fall under. The forms might seem like a hassle, but they're meant to track your nitrogen load properly. I remember my first deep dive and sitting there with a pencil for an hour trying to remember when I had my last meal and whether I drank coffee that morning. The training courses definitely gloss over this stuff, you're right about that. But once you get into the rhythm of filling them out right after surfacing, it gets a lot faster.

@janab82 yeah but what really sold me was when I started using a red light headlamp with the paper charts. did you have to learn to switch between the map and the sky constantly at first or did it just click for you?
