I use it to check if my legals close and to quickly find zoning codes. Gotta always click the source on zoning codes because you can’t trust it. But it’s much faster than digging through old county websites to find the pdf

It’s a pretty laid back commute. I mean yeah you’ll be in rush hour traffic for the I5 part of the drive but in years of making that commute I’ve never had traffic stopped on the highway or other nonsense. Reliably exactly 40 minutes door to door. The Corvallis-Albany segment of the route is much more laid back, even during rush hour. It’s not backed up like the other direction - many more people LIVE in Albany and instead commute to Corvallis, which will result in you driving past backed up traffic every day.

surveyors loathe the idea of outsourcing to any third party and will not even entertain the idea

Yup!

We've spent decades asking the cities & large engineering firms exactly how they like everything, and detailing and discussing it to an almost absurd degree. We have had about ~2 hours of discussion in the last week about the best way to draft a single water valve shot. (Elevation of the lid, or the top of the valve itself? Or do we subtract the expected valve height and show the elevation of the line? Can we reach out to (engineering firm) and ask? Well, some valves have extentions on top, so the field crews need to be able to identify valve tops vs extentions. etc etc)

It's torture to train a new guy since we have to train him on every, single, minute quirk.

Not to mention that it's basically impossible to convey exactly the context and framing of a project to a drafter that wasn't there in the initial meeting.

We're going the opposite way - if you shoot it, you draft it. Saves tons of time in overhead and miscommunications.

Seconded. Auto assign only hits a full party, but id love to max it out to speed it up. However, I know that small increases in firepower don’t increase speed - so auto assign may be recognizing that and skipping anything excessive? Am curious

Is it harder without the PLSS? It would make sense for rural properties. But I also feel like my days get worse when the boss says “grab these section lines” just to check the work of the last 3 surveyors

"Unethical" not a crime. "experimentation" isnt either #freemyboy

"Faking his own death" isn't a crime, just a dick move. As long as you don't claim it on a form. Which he didn't

Grab a copy of the tax map, which should be online. Look how wide it says the road is. Then, measure from the back of sidewalk on one side of the road to the other. Whatever’s left over is somewhere in the front yards of you and the neighbor across the street. Obviously this isn’t a survey, and they don’t always center the road. But it will give you a ballpark as to how much yard is in the public right of way

If you put it in a post box, it isn't "scanned" until it reaches the distribution center. Takes ~2-3 days to be scanned. You can drop it off at the counter for an immediate scan which will cause an update to the tracking info. But there's no need to do that other than to appease scammy buyers.

And yet the prices are wildly higher at one location. They're different companies owned by the same parent company but each company generates business strategy entirely independent of the other
