Haven't really been around here much the last year so I thought I would re-introduce myself. The last year was rough. Viral pneumonia about did me in last spring. Couple chest operations and ten days in the hospital probably saved my life. Shortly after returning to work after a few week of convalescing, where I headed up the survey department at telecom company, after 17 years building everything up from scratch, I was shown the door, which from the moment it happened, I viewed as a complete and total blessing in disguise. So here I am, not quite ready to ride off into the sunset, I've taken a new job in Public Works. Now I get to learn Civil 3D, get my commercial drone operators license and learn a host of new things and I'm excited! Little daunting, but I've always thrived on challenges and I'm not one to bet against. I'll probably come here looking for a little help when I get bogged down. My philosophy has always been to surround myself with people smarter than myself and hope that some of it rubs off, along with what doesn't kill you, will either leave you stronger, or a quadriplegic. Once I have it all figured out, I guess that will be my que to head off into the sunset.
Cheers! Willy
Welcome Willy.
I've taken a new job in Public Works.
After 30 years in the private sector I took a public works job 4 years ago. Working within a limited area I find lots of opportunities to reuse and repurpose data. Everything you do becomes part of one big survey. To that end, setting up a control network is very valuable.
