when the land of six Saturdays and then there is Saturday looks better all the time.
... when you're now buying lots that you surveyed 38 years ago.?ÿ
I did this. My house is in one of the first subdivisions I surveyed after moving to Texas in 2004.

When you're buying lunch for as much as you used to earn in a day.
When you remember being able to set up an instrument out front of a school to get a benchmark without having the cops called on you...?ÿ
When you look at the beautifully designed certificate hanging on the wall, ?ÿhand painted, and see the date. Yet alone the low Registered Surveyor number. (they don't make them like that anymore)?ÿ
Also when you find old marks from a 1970 survey by self!?ÿ
You know you can still find in your truck a couple of plumb bobs, a 200' steel tape, and eleven "arrows."

When you started surveying you actually "split curbs, proceeded as shown"!
When you're having a "teaching moment" with your apprentice, who's been with you for a year, by telling him a story from "back in the day", and he politely informs you that you've already told him the exact same story three times. Ouch!

Sometimes you just have to keep telling the same story, until they GET IT!

You tell your protege a story and he politely mentions that your story's timeframe precedes his birth.
?ÿ
So, you switch to telling stories that begin with "Back when I rode my dinosaur to work............."
You tell your protege a story and he politely mentions that you told him the same story last week, and a couple of months ago, too.
Good training is repetitive. End of story.
Oh, by the way, what is an apprentice?

You visit the Science museum in Washington D.C. and they have a Trimble 4800 RTK rover and TDC 1 on display and you thought you were still using cutting edge technology. 🙂 Jp?ÿ
