....I find that by the time you electronically tell someone what to do, it's usually almost as easy just to do it yourself....
And here in lies part of the problem as well.
Sometimes, we need to separate ourselves from "the person who redlines and gives it to a junior draftsman (electronic or not)" and sometimes, yes, it's much easier to simply just "DO" the work yourself, but then again, you aren't preparing yourself for the next batch of projects you could be going after if you are sitting in an office "doing the work yourself".....
It's a tough call at times.
Either you sit in an office, do the work yourself and don't redline ,though I find myself sometimes redlining for myself...just so that my hand/brain relationship can work faster and more efficient than trying to do the work directly on the PC.
That's a debate for another topic.
Engineers DON'T do any drafting. they only redline, then give those very precise redlines to someone who WONT think and will only COPY (exactly at times) what the engineer wrote.
Architects, I find, like to do some of their own actual production work. I suppose the higher up you get in an office working on larger jobs...the 'more' red lining you'll do and the more admin/management work you'll do as well....rather than actual 'production' work.
I know I'm mixing topics here and the 'telecommuting' topic is really what we should be discussing and how to improve on it.
