I had one inspector who definitely wanted me on the job site for inspection. If, I was there, I always passed inspection. He might ask to have something minor taken care of and would trust me to do it. If, I wasn't there, I never passed. It got to be a bit of a game. I would try to have everything perfect, and get a violation for workmanship or some very minor detail. He was a good inspector and never unreasonable other than sometimes it was not convenient to meet him at jobsite.
