office
I don't like him. I would like to see him out of office.
adventure land office
If you're looking for an adventure, an intellectual challenge, and a close-knit community of professionals, consider land surveying! It's not for everyone, and I'd recommend working as a surveyor's assistant or office staff before committing to the necessary schooling.
land office lucky
I'm lucky enough to split my time between the field and the office. Some land surveyors in larger outfits can work mostly from behind a desk, managing many field crews at once.
angles bad beyond coverage create gas gave hit impact looking obvious wins
Our sense when it hit was that it was bad but could have been worse. For us, the coverage we gave it was a lot. We weren't looking to create angles beyond the obvious ones, like the impact on gas prices. That isn't the WINS way.

We do this just like a child does, packing sand into a bucket. We just do it on a larger scale.

I was really proud of the way they ran.
associated chance content fans feature forward invited looking news online placing press production snap testing video
We've never been big fans of beta testing at 1010 WINS. However, when the Associated Press invited us to participate in their new Online Video Network, we jumped at the chance to feature topical news video on our site. The integration was a snap and their production is top-notch. We're looking forward to prominently placing APOVN content on the new 1010wins.com.
good horse turn
It was a good win, but when Pete (Graham) got him to the front, the horse wanted to turn it up a bit.

Yeah, it can be a make-or-break thing. Absolutely. A performing songwriter can come to the Folk Alliance and play in front of a room full of people and have 60 or 70 gigs booked out of this thing.
both expecting guys impressed potential power team worked
We're expecting both of these guys to be a big part of the team this year. I don't like to say they're both power guys, but they really are. I've worked with both of them, and I'm impressed with their potential and abilities.
caught great horse
He's been a great horse for the stable, but the handicapper has caught up with him now.
surprise
I don't really like him in the first place, so this doesn't surprise me at all.
reading years honor
Sometimes I imagine a surveyor 100 years from now reading my plan, retracing my boundaries, and finding the monuments that I set. It's an honor to make a mark in history like that.
