Busy day! Some days in surveying really test you.
Last week was one of those days — juggling between the robotic total station and RTK GPS across an 800m long site, solo. Kerb set out and pins, topo of exposed underground services, checking if the digger buckets are still in calibration, monitoring retaining walls (with weeds covering the marks 😅), and topo of the subgrade layer… all in one day.
Started working at 6:50am and didn’t stop until past 5pm. It always feels like there’s so much to do and never enough time — especially when you’re the only surveyor on site. But this is the job. Precision, pressure, problem-solving, and pushing through.
