So Paul, am i correct in assuming you are paid by NACHI for your material and your idea's but not required to post them here for all of us who paid $289.00.

Where are all the junk yard dogs now!!!!

[Paul W. Abernathy]

I am paid to conduct a Seminar....I am a Private Entity who conducts a seminar for NACHI to it;s members who attend the seminar......nothing more...nothing less.

My content is MY content.....wanna see it...pay to come to a seminar......Nachi gives you more than enough for your $ 289.00 membership fee....I am a Independent Contractor...

Nick has never paid me a dime to offer my advice and consult to the hundereds upon hundereds of members who call me weekly, get their questions answered by an industry expert online ( not someone who thinks they know the answer ) and quite frankly to be as charming as I am.....

Russel is paid by NACHI....and works for NACHI...I do not.....plain and simple

I am just a plain " Electrical Training Whore "....yep that about sums it up

[Nick Gromicko]

BTW: Everytime NACHI announces an event www.nachi.org/events.htm we use our access to the latest everyinspector database, which accounts for much of our chapter event success.

Paul is very free to sell us that which he wishes to put up for sale (his time away from his family and his expertise)... and we are free to buy it... and happily do.

Nick, sorry for the comment, I'm not trying to start anything and a good lesson can be learned here.

If you make a mistake, it's OK to say I'm sorry and apologize.

Sorry.

WHAT.....are you saying I possibly am protected on here, ....hell man I get flammed anytime I step outside of the electrical area....lord knows I ask for it most of the time...lol..

Just ask others....I get my share of RAZZING...lol

Peter you have nothing to appologize about fella......it's all good......I prefer to think of myself as someone who cares about NACHI and try to bring things that help members. Now if I had not posted a single thing on this board and jammed stuff down your throat..well.....call me what you wish........but not the case I will help anyone as long as they are NACHI members.

Oh....but in the end...I am basically a "Electrical Training Whore".....sold to the highest bidder I guess...

PS Thank you for all you do!

Not at all, I was under the impression you were a very well respected member of this community, I don't think I have ever seen you get bashed like some do here.

[Paul W. Abernathy]

I gotcha brother.....we all help each other so thank you for what YOU do in making NACHI the biggest and the best.

In the end......we got some GREAT people helping on these boards.

It's all about helping members......if you EVER meet nick ( and no I am not sucking up...hell I probably wont ever meet him again ) but watch him at a convention or speaking engagement.......the man truly cares about YOU the member and I saw it first hand in Toronto....

By relieving these vendors of this daunting and never ending task, we reduce the costs of their products and services, maintain a more accurate database for the industry, and provide a source of ongoing funding (the Board's only source of ongoing funding) for the MICB which allows it to be a due-free. There are no annual dues at www.certifiedmasterinspector.org

NACHI is one of MICB's vendors and uses its access of the everyinspector database to make important industry-wide announcements which typically benefit NACHI members in particular.

Nick,

Everyone appreciates everything you do, make no mistake about it.

I don't know really......what I have found out is this. You offer advice and try to help people and every now and then you get some "CLUCKER" who wants to show they know something or want to discredit someone else for no reason and well........it happens.

For the most part I stand by 100% of the things I post, 100% of the things ELECTRICALLY I post are 100% FACT.....if it was not I would not post it so maybe that helps...

But just go back through my posts and you will see....me and a few members have our differences....it's all good because if they called me tomorrow wanting HELP I would do it in a heartbeat......life is too short to worry about the little things.

Thank you Paul, I have met Nick, he came to a chapter meeting and I had the opportunity to speak with him personally and you are right he gave us a great presentation.

You can feel the man's passion and energy, that's what make NACHI such a good organisation, along with you and everyone else that contributes in a professional manner.

PS I can't stand bashing!! just in case you didn't notice.

Why is Master Inspector Tax Exempt? On what basis?
