I am happy to find this forum! I am a former truss designer/sales for the last 12 years, but started as a residential building inspector about 4 months ago. It has been a pretty easy transition so far and the builders have been very receptive. Looking forward to the interaction with all of you.
 
We tend to screw a little with new comers... roll your eyes and don't take any thing you read personally...
 
Welcome Howey

You will need a thick skin.

Be careful of all info given on the internet, Verify everything.

A lot of info given is personal opinions and local interpretations.
 
Thanks everyone for the welcome. My experience with trusses was a unique selling point in getting me the job. I'll be happy to contribute in any way I can, especially truss questions.
 
welcome howdy,

glad you have found the transition so easy! this profession is so easy even a moron can do it, i'm proof :mrgreen:
 
"welcome howdy,"

Ah, a new inspector. Welcome. Heres wishing you the very best! Got into this insanity a lot of years ago. If we can help then... I guess we may be worth something. Again welcome. jp
