I'm not sure I like this test-taking nonsense. I an seeing far too many inspectors who couldn't wire a light switch. Some junior colleges even have nine-month certificate programs in "inspection technology!"


I have been in the trade for 13 years now. I have just finally decided to take my tests to be OFFICIALLY in the trade.
