Re: You'll have to get in line.....
When I first started, I got calls from contractors asking where the truss problems where - so I started carrying a hammer stapler and stapling orange tape hanging down from the places the contractor needed to look.

You could poke your head up into the attic access opening and see all the orange tape hanging down.

I STILL got calls from contractors asking where the problems were, and that they could not see any orange tape hanging down. That was back when I used to do re-inspections, I would go back out (getting paid, of course) and all the orange tape would still be hanging down ... what do you mean WHERE?

So ... I stopped bothering to mark anything, they would either call or not call, regardless of whether it was marked or not.
