I end up doing all the prep work while he naps.
I was out on a routine buoy maintenance dive and stumbled upon a huge pile of old tires and scrap metal right on the seabed. It was hidden in the murk, and I almost got my hose caught in it. This isn't just some eyesore; it's a serious trip hazard for divers and it's killing the local fish habitat. I've been diving this spot for years, and the junk keeps growing from stuff tossed off boats. We can't let this slide because one wrong move could mean a cut suit or a snapped air line. I had to signal my buddy to help me move a rusted barrel, and it wasted good bottom time. If we don't speak up about dumping, our work sites will turn into garbage dumps. How do you guys handle trash when you see it on a job?
I began spending five minutes stretching my back and legs before putting on my gear each day. This simple routine helped reduce the stiffness I often felt after hours in the water. Last week, during a long pipeline survey, I moved with much more ease and comfort. It's a small change that has made my workdays noticeably better.
