No, he was just trying to sneak it out of the buffet. They charge by the pound for the food, not by the person.
Sometimes I only take 8, sometimes 12. Unless the load dictates otherwise I usually start about the same time each day. I don't always finish at the same time though and just because I may stop early doesn't mean I sleep earlier.
I take less than 10 usually, more like 5 or 6 on a good day.. remove old page, start new one, then back everything up.. repeat as needed....
