A few years before I retired from our local university, our department hired a private contractor to help us convert general purpose classrooms to modern smart rooms. Their work was shoddy, to say the least. My boss appointed me as the inspector. I wired a lab, then my boss grabbed the private contractor by the ear and showed him the example. Heads rolled and the contractor finally started to do good work. And I must admit that I really enjoyed being an inspector. By the time I retired a year later, the contractor was saluting me. ��

And for the record? My father's second career was as a Construction Superintendent for high-end Custom homes. EVERY switch plate in a house he built had the screws lined up exactly vertical before he left the site for the last day. And, mine are as well. R.
