Gave up the business
It was really slow this year. When I got a call with an offer as a Government inspector, I couldn't pass it up.
I'm still inspecting, but there is a lot I will miss about my business. On the other hand, it's kinda nice inspecting with a regular pay check and benifits.
Good luck to all who are slow right now.

Re: Gave up the business
Kevin, If you are inspecting the government, you should be able to find plenty of defects to report. Good luck.

Re: Gave up the business
I spent several years inspecting County Owned buildings in Los Angeles County, many of them in the "projects". I NEVER had a problem with the "locals", but was careful about when I was on site (time of day and day of the week, and certain days of the month").
A word of advice, if you are going to carry - grind the front sight off the gun. For the punch line to this joke, send me a private e-mail or message, it's a little graphic for public posting.

Re: Gave up the business
Kevin,
Well, OK then. That makes me feel better. While we have never met, I feel like I can rely on your opinion. Good to have you back.
