Building inspector went on a building inspection on a detached building. There was electrical wiring every where. Customer had no electrical permit. When the inspector asked him about the permit he replied, "I'm doing it myself. I don't need a permit." When the building inspector told him he did, indeed need a permit, and inspections, he replied, "I've been doing this for people for 20 years and I've never needed a permit or had any inspections." The building inspector wanted to ask him for the addresses of these other installations. So, the guy comes in and gets a permit, complaining the entire time. Then he calls me, the inspector - not the appropriate inspection line - the next day and wants an inspection. I told him I would put it on my list for the next morning. He informs me that "he's been working on this building for awhile and he is putting in insulation so he hopes he doesn't have everything covered by tomorrow morning." I told him, so do I, because he will be removing any insulation that is covering any wiring.
Sometimes people astound me when they want me to feel guilty for incoveniencing them by requiring an inspection on their electrical wiring that they installed without a license or a permit and only enough electrical knowledge to get themselves in trouble
