Just hit my 500th tree removal and it felt weird

I crossed 500 removals last week on a big silver maple in a backyard. Never thought I'd remember the number but something about that round count made me stop and think about all the close calls I've had. Anyone else hit a milestone like this and get a little reflective?

What about that silver maple made it the one that stuck with you?

148 branches over a silver maple's lifespan. That's the number I started counting after I hit 500. Makes me think about how every job feels like its own tiny world but they all blur together. Like when you pass the same guy on the subway every morning for years and suddenly realize you've never said a word. Numbers add up fast in this line of work.
