                          Fecking stunning! Your level of attention and detail over an extended period of time (years) is really impressive. Not sure if it's part of what will make you a great engineer or if you're just a bit like that, but long term number tracking is beautiful 🙂

                              Thanks for the comments  @Snowy and @Anesthetist
                              I am a bit nerdy and I like keeping track of things. I have always been one that focus on details.
                              It is probably a good trait to have as a verification engineer. 🙂

                              Going to use these until the next DWC starts.
                              Having a hard time deciding what to use for it though. 666UHR or 666SII. That is the question 🙂

                                    Have not been wearing these for almost a month now.
                                    Gave them a 60 degree wash last Tuesday.
                                    So I added 3 pictures.

                                    Love this pair of jeans.
