I'm working on 8 title lots on the same street,(easy s***) a construction site that sucks, and if i have the time a topo in the middle of nowhere. Yes, my boss wants me in three places at once. Surveying is not the type of job you want to rush but for some unknown reason office guys talk like you're out there playin tiddly winks. All i can say is these a******* must think its all flat and wide open like it is on paper. ITS NOT! So if you are an office tech or an RPLS who doesn't go in the field please go out in the field once in while. Thanx.

Reply by Scott D. Warner, R.L.S. on December 5, 2012 at 11:26pm Robert, I understand your frustration, and I would appreciate what you do more without the profanity. Now, what if you were in my situation: I answer the phone and offer my advice to potential clients, do the necessary research to provide an accurate cost estimate for the work, do the fieldwork in hills 1000 feet high, get back to the office, download the raw data, draft the map myself, sign it, seal it, and if I am over the budget, there is nobody to blame but me.
