I hate finding the misspelled word once it's too late to edit the post 🙁

That's me too... I have projects to last me a few weeks now. I got a drive around farm survey today. It will be nice to get a paycheck soon.

No DCALS for me.

Trying to get my house ready to put on the market and flee DC.

Anybody want a row home in the center of DC?

I lived with a bunch of other guys here in the late 80's before I gave up my soul crushing career as a political consultant to enter the exciting profession of surveying.

Still pretty slow here, but picking up. I've responded to more RFPs in the last month than I did in the previous year, which is a good sign.

At least part of the reason I've been so slow is that I haven't backed off on fees. I know I've lost some work for that reason, but I've sure been enjoying the free time!

Doing OK. Not too slow. Not too fast. Sorta halffast. Suits me.

Talked with a big company guy a week ago. He said they had shrunk from 100 employees down to 80 and didn't see anything major coming along to make expansion seem possible.

I guess Florida is the first in, and the last out.

I hope the upturn starts headin' this way soon.

Amen to that RFB. I've been working for two different surveyors lately and still can't get a full week in.
