All the updates are great, but I like this one the best. Thank you!

Personally I am not that enamored with this.
I don't know anyone who tells time as 1.6 days. How about just leaving it as Hours and minutes? If you tell me it is 40 hours then I can figure out that it is 1 day and 16 hours. Then I can convert it to a clock time to put in my documentation.

I like it (it's way better than trying to figure out percentages) and once it gets below a day, it converts to hours.

Good idea, especially since there's a difference between FT days and actual days whereas hours are hours in both systems. Even something like 1d16h would be more intuitively obvious than the decimal.

I love the border collie! Haven't had any dogs cluttering up my farms for years but I couldn't resist this one. Bought a brown dog to keep him company.

Several people have pointed out about the palm tree - was just wondering why it can't be made harvestable, I'm sure we can use dates in some of the facilities.
