Caller: Yes I need to get my corners marked.
Me: Ok, let me get some info from you so I can do some basic research and call you back.

Me: (Brief Intro) Yes sir, we spoke concerning your survey and that is gonna cost you between $1200 - $1500.
Caller: Nothing personal against you but that is effing bull excrement and I will be cursed (not the word he used) if I am gonna pay that kind of money and I will just figure out where the corners are myself. I can't believe you want that kind of money to mark the corners and lines, Jesus C ((and on and on for a few more seconds)).
Me: Good day sir and happy new year.?ÿ

Caller: You don't get it Mr. Surveyor, I don't need a?ÿFULL-BLOWN Survey, I just need to know where my corners are located.
Lol.?ÿ I get that on a regular basis.?ÿ?ÿ
So sorry. ?ÿI didn't realize when I dialed a wrong number earlier that it was your number. ?ÿI thought you were a plumber with rates like that.
And then there was the brain surgeon who called a plumber to clear a clogged kitchen drain.
The plumber had it clear in five minutes, and handed the surgeon a bill for $169.

The plumber said, "Neither did I when I was a brain surgeon."
