Various engineering fields will use them. Electricity and electronics.
who the hell cares
Electrical engineers use logarithms to work on signal Decay.
Natural logarithms use base e (approximately 2.71828), common logarithms use base 10.
John Napier discussed logarithms in 1614 in his book titled Mirifici Logarithmorum Canonis Descriptio. He probably discovered it some time before 1614.The use of logarithms did not reduce errors when performing calculations. The use of logarithms made calculations faster possibly at the loss of some precision.
The base of common logarithms is ten.
Careers that use exponential functions include psychologists, forensic scientists, engineers and chemists. Exponential functions are functions where the base is a constant and the power is variable.

Logarithms were invented by John Napier who was a mathematician. He invented other things too, so there was no reason why he couldn't invent the logarithms. Logarithms were invented so people could take short cuts to multiplications! :)
In 1614, John Napier published his invention of logarithms.
No, they are opposites, just like multiplication and division are opposites.
