THE PRINCIPLE ACTIVITY OF MY COMPANY IS BOUNDARY SURVEYING . HOW MANY TIMES CAN YOU TAKE " PRINCIPLES OF BOUNDARY SURVEYING " THIS IS THE REASON I WENT INACTIVE WITH MY NORTH CAROLINA LICENCE . YOU END UP IN A  CLASSROOM FILLED WITH PEOPLE THAT DON'T WANT TO BE THERE AND END UP GETTING NOTHING OUT OF THE CLASS.  I MAKE A LIVING RETRACING OLD SURVEYS, WHAT I'VE LEARNED ABOUT THE SURVEYORS AND THEIR WORK THAT PROCEEDED ME IS NOT FOUND IN BOOKS. YOU LEARN BY FOLLOWING IN THEIR FOOTSTEPS. THIS IS MY 37th YEAR IN THIS PROFESSION MY TOOLS ARE A BUSH AXE AND TOTAL STATION,  I KNOW HOW TO RUN BOTH.  IF SOMEONE NEEDS TO TAKE A CLASS LET THEM DON'T MAKE THEM.
