Overheard a dockhand in Norfolk talking about skipping a pre-dive comms check
He said his team was rushing a job and figured their gear had been fine the day before, so they just went down. That's a hard no from me, because a failed mic or a dead battery 100 feet down isn't a minor issue. How do you guys enforce a proper check when the client or your own crew is pushing for speed?

Yeah, I was that guy until a buddy got stuck down there.

Feel for your buddy, man. That kind of close call changes you for good. It’s why I won’t budge on checks now.
