Hey its hump day again!

We keep getting weird phone calls from different possible new clients. We like new clients so we always try to find out what they are trying to achieve with the data we provide. One lady kept pressing us on what type of surveying we do. She wanted a boundary survey and we told her we can't do that we are not surveyors but we work with several and can recommend someone in her area. Some guy called up and wanted to know what type of engineering we do. Simple answer, we are not engineers and never claim to be in any way. We work with engineers all the time and provide them the data they use to produce their final project.

It is interesting because recently the surveyors and engineers have really been going after anyone using the word surveying or engineering in their business description. We can provide most of the components of an Alta survey, BUT we provide that to a surveyor and he combines our data with his and then that surveyor signs off on it. We can't and won't even try to call that the survey. It is like they are calling us to get us to say we do those things but we can't anymore than we can call ourselves a doctor.
