No one but Joe Tedesco....and only Joe Tedesco.... has paid money to enter a site that maintains criminal records and then posted them openly on the message board with the intent to harm the reputation of a member and his business.

No one has come close to the severity or the number of COE violations as has Joe Tedesco.
I just have one question to all this. Has anyone filed suit against him for slander, defamation, or harassment or....or....or

In all my years, I have never heard of this level of obsessive behavior being exhibited by a professional of his "supposed" caliber.

I am amazed that the professional organizations he is affiliated with have not
censured him. I am surprised that these forums allow this type of behavior. And most of all, I guess I am disurbed that there are those on this and other forums who support and condone this type of victimization.

Maybe the victims could get together and hire one lawyer and get some kind of a package deal. Leave room for me, because I'm sure he thinks he has me square in his sites.

He told me that he is supposed to be in Houston "in-processing" for KBR October 20, 2008. Unless that's changed. Give it 7-10 days then file suit. He'll be in Iraq. Just a thought.

You guys are being WAY to nice about this!! My attorney is chomping at the bit over this thread and others. GET A LAWYER!!

Debbie,

I will be happy to allow you to quote me and to count on me to provide whatever assistance you feel is necessary to stop Mr. Tedesco from stalking and harassing you as he has done to so many others.

Some say his inability to co-exist with other electrical specialists stems from an inferiority complex related to a childhood incident regarding his extremely small penis. Four years ago, when he was publishing photographs of himself in a French maid outfit (painted nails, make-up..the whole works.....not kidding about this) many concluded that he was just too far out there to relate to as a professional.

Since then, he monitors our board and chooses his victims from other qualified electrical experts who he feels invades "his" space.

I agree with you that it is time to stop. I cannot understand why the ESOP Committee...who has already canned his ***** for less than this...resist the inevitable expulsion. In the interim, whatever means of retribution you may seek through litigation is not only welcomed, but encouraged.

Let me know what you need from me. My phone number is on my web page.

Frank, As far as I know it's meaning is not defined.

It only says Mr. Green on the roll over.

I'm sure Joe Tedesco's future co-workers with KBR, the DCMA, the Corp of Engineers and Stanley Baker & Hill (SBH) will find this and the other threads already on the internet very interesting....and entertaining.

And it's not so much that he's stalking me as he's stalking my readers and those who would comment in a less than favorable manner.

Gotta go...must forward this thread!

Thanks

Thanks for doing what others can't/won't.

Paul Abernathy has also initiated legal action against Tedesco. You may wish to coordinate your efforts with his.

Default Re: Ok.....I'm done with Tedesco...

This is my first post to this forum.

I have followed my father and grandfather into the electrical field as an electrical contractor and have been for over twenty five years. I am also a member in good standing of the IAEI. I've been lurking here for several years to keep my finger on the pulse of your industry. And I must admit that I have learned a few things while perusing this site.

What I can't understand is how in the world you guys would allow this sort of thread with all of the bashing and he said said, she said stuff to be out there for all to see. If you haven't noticed, there are many that question the credibility of the home inspection industry in general, with a particular spotlight on the home inspector's qualifications regarding the electrical and mechanical systems.

I am one of the electrical contractors that has benefited from the home inspection process and have been called out a few times by them as well. Although I have prevailed in every challenge it does help keep a balance in the industry and keep us on our toes.

To get back on track, I think this thread has done much more harm to your industry than either of these men has added. It is a real shame, both of these men have a wealth of knowledge and a willingness to share. It appears however, that neither can get over their own personal agendas and egos to stay focused on helping elevate your industry, to help it gain the qualifications, credibility, respect and professionalism that is currently lacking.

This thread along with some of the so very basic electrical questions that I have seen asked from the home inspection professionals, these same professionals that may be calling out my work is really providing a very good reason to question just how qualified and professional are you guys?

You guys want respect from us?

I think you're going backwards guys.

Just my thoughts.

FRANK

Frank I believe the two men you speak of are ELECTRICIANS.

Full up on my need for contractor respect, but thank you for the kind offer.

Ah yes they are electricians, but they are also members of this organization and posting on topics related to the home inspectors. This is YOUR HOUSE and you guys are choosing to hang your laundry out for all to see. I'm only a guest in this house and am only rendering an opinion with an outside perspective. Take it or leave it. Whether you want my respect or not does not matter to me nor I would assume to most other professional tradesmen.

As far as opinions, most of the professional tradesmen I know consider your reports as just that as well, an opinion, with no real credentials to back up your opinions. These opinions matter as much to most of us as does you opinion as to the homeowner's color choices in the foyer.

If you want respect from other professionals, begin by showing respect for yourselves.

With an attitude such as this

Perhaps we would have more respect for your opinion if you had the guts to use your real name.

Regardless of whether or not we take Paul"s or Joe's side, we all have more respect for them than a someone to ashamed to use their real name.

Every member on these boards has the guts to question and learn on the MB.

Perhaps if you did the same you would not need to have your work called in to question.

Stop being afraid to learn , by lurking in the shadows and come out to the sunshine.

In the USA we are successful because of not being afraid to speak our minds.

I guess when you are not sure you just keep hoping your question gets asked at some point.

Nobody knows it all , and we have thousands of members .The good Inspectors ask and teach.(Not lecture)

So lay off.

Frank, I am not a Tradesman.

Believe whatever you want.

But when I note that the pool fence is not bonded, in writing with my license number, it would be nice if one of the "Tradesmen" would offer their opinion in writing as to why it is ok not to follow the code. Sort of a two way street.

We all have dreams.

I have been an inspector in one way shape or form for over twenty years. I have heard every excuse in the book from the trades regarding why the installation they are working on is not to the current , spec, code, drawing, current practice, standard, etc.

That you have little of no respect for home inspectors speaks volumes, it is ok, but do not think you are fooling anyone.

That two Electricians are getting all pissed off with each other is not news to me.
