Land Survey Crew Rodman/ Helper (near Hutto or Pfulgerville)

It really doesn't matter if you're from somewhere out of state with little to no local knowledge, you can't spell the name of the city you're surveying in, are sucking the life out of Texas to keep your worthless self fed.

The important part is you don't allow smoking on the jobsite, or in the vehicle. :-/

This is the kind of dog and pony show,

That gives Surveying a bad name.

smoking on the clock

I wish I was younger..I'd like to apply for the job just to get an interview. Then I'd ask (in reference to their smoking policy), "Are you talking about everything, or just tobacco?"

Along with my best deer-in-headlight look...

smoking on the clock

Had an old boss that wouldnt let anyone smoke in or within 10 feet of the truck. The gag was whenever a new person would come around somebody would tell them that if they were going to smoke in the truck they better light two. One for themselves and one for David the boss.:-P

Lucky's

Years ago I had a party chief that smoked Lucky Strikes. Always left them on top of the motor housing (along with everything else) in the Ford Econoline.

We also had a 4" carpet needle we used for splinters and such. We also would find horsehair snags in barbwire fences. When he wasn't looking we would thread one of his cigarettes with one horsehair and trim it so it didn't show.

Man, those things would stink with that hair burning. He'd smoke a little bit of one and put it out and complain that it was a 'stale' pack.

ahhh..the good old days 😛

I worked in a drafting room in the late 60's with a guy that smoked Latakia tobacco in his pipe. We added eraser dust, he never knew.:-D
