client and civil have had this survey for SIX YEARS. Plat goes in for review in the morning.?ÿ
Just now: ??your survey is wrong. appraisal district says we have .3 acres more.?
I do my best to avoid such clients.?ÿ ?ÿMakes life so much better.
Tell them that you'll get back to them with a response in six years, and that you'll be billing them monthly for a full month's worth of work for the duration.
"Hello, state board? This is my evidence for them practicing surveying without a license:'
'survey is wrong. appraisal district says we have .3 acres more.'
Please help".
Sincerely,
Licensed dues paying insurance holding professional who needs you to do your damn job.
A couple of guys did a big study about this sort of thing. They names are Dunning and Kruger and they have become famous and perhaps rich. Not sure how, I think their fame and fortune are simply a kind demonstration of what they describe. Many thousands of years ago Solomon described the same phenomenon: "Do you see a man wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him."
Probably because their GIS told them so.?ÿ LOL!
