Let me guess...he was trying to stand in the middle of the line and look both directions instead of standing at one end and look down the line. I've had that one happen before with an adjoiner. I staked the property line every 50' from front to back and left to another job site. After I left, the neighbor walks out to the side line in the middle and deems that I was crooked. He calls the office. My crew coordinator calls me and assumes I'm wrong because the neighbor said so and for me to return to the subdivision and fix it. I pulled up and stood on the prolongated X on the curb and looked right down the line. Straight. The neighbor comes out and stands in the middle again and tries to tell me I'm crooked. I told him to come to the street with me and take a look from one end. He shook his head, mumbled something about optical illusion, thanked me for coming back and went in the house. The discussion with the crew coordinator when I got back to the office wasn't as civil.

Ah ha ha ha... Mnph.... Hmmm maybe it wasn't funny. But I laughed! "The purpose of a survey is to ratify what I think".
(More stifeled laughter)
