Crowdfunding GPS On Benchmarks
Hey Boss,
For various reasons including health issues, estrangement and ongoing divorce from Mrs. Bubble, and having domestic violence perpetrated upon me by other family members, I am taking a sabbatical down here in the Oregon Outback. I’m too ill to work productively for anyone and friends keep telling me give up and apply for disability. In the meantime, I mostly pick up cans. Every day I work towards getting my tool chain going again, the Swiss Miss, the laptops, Star*Net, TraversePC, Columbus, etc. yet it is not something I feel is efficient enough to sell, and I can’t really predict which days I’ll be functional. Probably the most professional thing I’ve done since getting the license is … nothing. Haven’t created any unhappy clients and haven’t taken on any liability. Sometimes I think that when all the legal stuff is settled I’ll move back up to the dry side of Washington, preferably a small town in the desert, and live happily ever after.
In the meantime I have found a few NGS monuments that haven’t been recovered in a long time, have never been observed with GPS (in a publicly shared way), and some of which would really help the geoid model in this area if so observed.
Probably my biggest lesson in all this is learning to ask for help and learning to ask for what I need. If ever I needed some help, it is now. If any of my posts have ever helped you with information, procedure, general knowledge, passing the exams, etc., please consider donating to my crowdfunding campaign on GoFundMe. Would also appreciate any suggestions for how to better explain what I’m doing, what we are doing with GPS On Benchmarks and OPUS Sharing.
