Hey man, how are the work hours, vacation, and flexibility for land surveying jobs? I'm sick of my being on call every day and logging in at 7 till 5 sitting at my desk. And how tough on the body is it since I like being active?
It really depends on the company you’re working for to be honest. But here in Washington we typically seem to be getting 40 hour work weeks and companies seem to be hiring so things are good as far as that goes. As far as vacation, it’s also depends on the company, but most companies are giving at least 2 to 3 weeks. And I would say as far as wear and tear on the body, it’s not too bad until you have to go hiking through a forest that doesn’t have a trail already made for you to walk on. But it’s not a bad gig for someone who’s somewhat fit and likes the outdoors that’s for sure.
I've driven down that road so many times!
