What can you accomplish in 360 hours?

In China, a 30 story hotel was constructed in 15 days, or 360 hours. This building is earthquake resistant to a reported magnitude 9.

Amazing stop action video shows the construction from start to finish.

Much of my working experience is in industrial construction mgmt. Normal contractual procedure if there is an issue is to send off an RFI (request for information) to the owner and not proceed with the item without an acceptable response. It is not unusual for a workable solution to take a minimum of two weeks; and sometimes up to six months or more if cost impacts must to resolved. (Ka-Ching!)

144 hours spread over several million years

What can you accomplish in 360 hours, he asked ?

You could possibly go on and off the MLB 15-day disabled list (tight fit, though) :smiley:
