Inspector “Sayings”

"They don't make me do this in Long Beach"
"Make it easy on yourself. Do the corrections or drag this house to Long Beach."

For the tenth time: "I have never gotten this correction before."
"Well thanks but there's no need to compliment me."
 
"You can't do it that way!" It's against code dude!

"Have a fantabulous day!

"Clavios...Clavios...Bang..Bang..Bang... more nails..more nails!"

"That won't fly in the (ICE) Tiger's jungle!"

I don't rally say that last one.
 
From the other side I've heard for years: "Those stupid inspectors should have to work for10 years as a general contractor before they ever can get hired as an inspector."

How many coats is that? "Two coats and a jacket!"

Where's your flashing? What flashing?

Do you have a Business License? "O ya, I'm sure we do!"

It's fee.

The City requires a Business License or AKA, Occupation License and proof of workers compensation be submitted to the city. I'm the enforcement arm for the City Clerks Office that reminds them to get the BL before I can issue the permit. Some City's by ordinance require the contractor to have a Masters License, we don't require that here.

Be honest, a business license is just anohter way for a city to extort money out of contracators, as if the building permits weren't enough.
