ECN Forum Forums General Topics of the Trade Business Related Discussion Lost Bid Follow-Up

I lost a bid job a decade back that still burns me up quite a bit. It was a rooftop package exchange job- several large units.

About a year later I was back up on that same roof to do a service work job and what did I get to see? EMT conduits, with set screw fittings no less out in the weather. And to top it, I know there was a permit pulled and so therefore in theory an inspection done.....
