Joe the light on the tree looks typical of what I see the in house maintenance guys do. [Linked Image]

I wish there was a good answer to stop this.

These guys in my area are expected by misinformed management to do any and all repairs and additions.

The managements attitude is "That is what your job is" Now go add an electric heater in the vestibule.

In that case 208 20 amp heater was added with NM (MC building) no conectors, no supports and incorect OCP

Many of these guys consider themselves to be masters of all trades.

The fixture with no ground, no box, green supply wire is a perfect example of a guy that knows enough to make it work but has absolutely no clue as to safety.

I know you spend a lot of time in these hotels and you must see the wiring done at Christmas time. [Linked Image]
