My foreman insisted I hand-letter a whole set of revisions on a site plan

He said it would 'build character' and that the client would appreciate the personal touch. This was for a small commercial lot survey in Eugene, about two weeks ago. I spent nearly three hours on it, only for the client to ask for a digital PDF they could mark up themselves. I get the old-school sentiment, but it felt like a massive waste of a morning. Has anyone else run into a situation where traditional drafting methods just didn't fit the client's actual needs?

Sounds like your foreman understood the client better than you did.

jamieh76 gets it. That hand-lettered plan showed real care and probably built more trust than a quick printout ever could.
