Every time I get too full of myself, G-d has a way of head slapping me and me "just about" missing a major defect.

Keeps me humble (which I VERY MUCH need) and helps me to be a better inspector.

If you work as if your only client is G-d, no one else can find fault.

Just my opinion, based upon my life and experience.

Sorry if I have offended anyone who refuses to believe in G-d.

But, hey, it's worked for me.

Huh? That's a bizarre statement if I've ever heard one.

That is funny John!

I ran into a couple of inspectors at the tail end of my inspection today. I was just finishing off the interior when they were inspecting the exterior of the house. One inspector is a NACHI member the other? They were not as arrogant as the inspector that you ran into. But none of these guys’s was using an IR camera, so I bet they completely missed a roof leak that was not visible with the naked eye.
Was your know-it-all using infrared?
