Chris Sweeney, LSI, walks you through a "typical" day in the life of a CGA land surveyor.
Notable Pros: not being laid off during winter months, getting to choose to work in isolation or with a team of surveyors, working outdoors.
Cons: it can get cold or hot (we're in Iowa after all!), and surveyors do run into the occasional bug, snake, and poison ivy!
