This screenshot cracked me up ...but I had to prove to myself that it was a photoshop jobber so I went to Deans Properties website...
True enough Daryl, but would it really surprise you if someone that looked just like the CEO Robert Deans, but wearing a bowling shirt instead of a suit, came by your desk to update your software?
If that were a surveying/engineering firm it would be "can you spot the brush monkey"?
he looks like an unemployed surveyor....
Did anyone hear look at the pic and immediately think, "DAD!"
He looks like the friendliest one there. 🙂
Speaking of which, I obviously need to work on my "IT Consultant" appearance because I don't look anywhere near as professional as that guy.
I don't know if anyone here knew Terry Peterson, Sierra Cybernetics (a Zbasic Cogo program).
The software wasn't exactly bug free or sometimes there were features that were desired to be added.
My old Boss Jeff would take a case of Bud up there to Grass Valley where Terry had his office and he would do bug fixes/add features right there on the spot. Jeff told me there was a pile of beer cans outside of Terry's office window.
This reminds me of that for some reason.
Yeah, I remember Terry. His was the first survey software program I used. I think he had diabettes or something because he was always eating the sugar cubes by the coffee pot when he came to our office.
I didn't see that program for at least 10 years after the early 90s then I got a job in the Survey office at Parks and they were still using it.
I don't think they believed me when I told them I knew that program. So I sat down and started doing calcs on it. I still remember a lot of it. 1 for traverse, 2 for inverse. 6 for two points, etc. I think 7 was angle right.
