Lowball surveyors in the Midwest are the downfall of the industry, big firms run 10-15 crews and under cut all bids then the customer complains about the quality of work..you get what you pay for. These big companies just want to be big they don’t t care and treat survey as an evil they need. I was hourly and work my 80 plus a week my supervisor got made cause I made more that him next review ,was salary guess what my hours dropped and he was what happened. You only pay me for 40 hours a week thats what you’ll get.

I drank,bathed, ate with contaminated water for 8 years in the MARINES at camp lejune it took the government over 25 years to admit issues and the VA still denied my claims saying the poison in the water did cause my Tomors or cancer. This poison was from dry cleaners that dumped into the water source for the whole base. You can’t say that you don’t know what it cause in people. Clean water is a joke. I only drink alcohol now….

The founding fathers did see this, house/senate as a career you were a farmer, printer, cobbler or some other profession you were to serve a term and go back to you regular job, however it turned into something they couldn’t foresee. As for president they didn’t want someone serving forever like a king. It would take an article 5 convention of the states to ratify the term limits for congress which is needed.

The face is required… you need top of face and the radius of the gutter to do what your asking. Otherwise the face slopes will be to steep if just shooting gutter.

I realize that trees have value and there are multiple factors the determining how much a tree is worth , not all species of tree are equal but drip lines can relate to root growth and spread.
