Every contribution is a deposit. The ledger is public. The receipts are permanent. You don't clock out of the field — the field keeps the books.

AquaTekXVI is making cents and then some. 61 contributions deep, Season I, and the pen is still moving.

The Teks that show up get paid in reputation, in field weight, in the permanent record of having actually built something.

Nobody messes with the Teks. — The Dude abides.
