The pink paint man

Bruce Small · 2022-03-02T15:04:00Z

So there I was stuck in traffic and noticed a survey crew (two person) doing a topo along a sidewalk and curb. One guy ran the rover rod and took the shot. The other guy's job was to put a blotch of pink paint where the shot was taken. It looked like a measles outbreak. (a) Leaving a trail of pink paint dots along the sidewalk is not professional. (b) You don't need pink dots to tell you where you took the shot if you are working methodically, and therefore efficiently. (c) If in doubt you could always look at the display screen, assuming you have modern equipment. Rant over.

Peppering the ground with paint never was and never will be appropriate.
