I though pushing 5 year-olds up chimneys was considered illegal in most states mind you I'd be happy to rent David Jr off you if he's still small enough to fit

Add it? I'm good. My education adds to my credibility. Sure, I can't possibly have as much experience as most of you, but I'm already a good inspector. And just imagine how good I'm going to be in 30 or 40 years when I'm as old as all of you guys.

Even a 40 something saw the poll the first time.

Sorry Bob.

I agree. However I would say about ten years will do it. Dylan if you have any prior construction experience you need to add that to your site. That's a huge plus. That's a major contender a potential client looks for when viewing websites.

I think he added it after my suggestion.

At least I hope so.

What was the question?

I have added enough grey hair for everyone Charley.

[Carl Brown]

Was there really a question?

47 works real good for me right now as long as BK is older I am good with it.

[Carl Brown]

BK,

I got you beat.

At least my drink container is bigger.............

I don't do pictures because of discrimination. You never know who is going to dismiss you because of what you look like or what your race may be. As far as the construction experience, I probably should put that on there. Not sure why I haven't. Thank for the tip.

And what do you mean ten years will do it? Do what? Didn't you say you were 35ish? Does that mean 7 years will do it for you?

To make up for the fact that I don't have 20+ years in the field, I go to college, constantly. In the last three years alone, I've taken 15 or so 17 weeks courses related to building safety and technology, indoor air quality & environmental building aspects. I use the knowledge I gained in my years as a framer and superintendent, but I don't rely on it, which means I make a great effort to stay current and always will. My construction experience is in the past, and the technology used even then has changed drastically.

The only gray in this pictures is the hail storm surrounding me.
