If you were going to market yourself as a "focused" business firm, wouldn't you at least research what you were doing ? I get that you don't want to work and have everyone make a living for you, but shouldn't you at least know what you're doing ?


"What sets TEXAS BOUNDARY SERVICES apart from our competition is our focus on the Boundary Survey, Improvement Location Certificate, Setback Verification Forms, and Topographic surveys as our specialties. By focusing on these types of services, and with our roster of independant contractors, we are able to communicate with our clients better and provide a higher level of service at the lowest prices in Texas.

I've worked on a survey crew in Houston for a few years and I've never had to survey for a setback verification, or an improvement location certificate.
Are these services required in Houston, or some other Texas cities ?

> our roster of independant contractors

Hiring a professional services firm that doesn't know how to spell "independent" always ends badly.

Unless you're in Paris

INDÉPENDANT, -ANTE, adj.

Qui est dans une relation, un état de non-dépendance.
A. ? [En parlant de pers.] Qui jouit d'une entière autonomie vis-à-vis de quelqu'un ou de quelque chose. On n'a que faire des grands seigneurs, on est libre, indépendant, on est roi dans son magasin; reste dans le tien... c'est ta place! (Scribe, Bertrand,1833, II, 2, p. 149).Freud, et plus encore un disciple très indépendant de la psychanalyse, Jones, attachent une grande importance aux suites d'une fixation de ce stade (Mounier, Traité caract.,1946, p. 142):
1. Dès qu'Antoine se trouvait auprès de Philip, insensiblement, sa personnalité se modifiait, subissait comme une diminution de volume : l'être indépendant et complet qu'il était l'instant d'avant retombait automatiquement en tutelle. Martin du G., Thib., Consult., 1928, p. 1063.

This bunch is already in trouble in Texas, Arizona and California.

Hopefully they will soon be OUT OF BUSINESS.
