ROUNDING-UP YOUR TIME

6/26/2018

 
Rounding-Up Time

​8 REASONS FOR ROUNDING-UP YOUR TIME

​This might be controversial.  

I think architects should round-up their time. 

I also think that you should complete and submit your timesheet daily.  If you aren’t completing your timesheet daily, then this idea won't interest you because you are already fudging your time entries.

Zoning Analysis Tools

Zoning
Zoning is an odd duck. Zoning is unique among codes because you might not be able to build.      Period.
