Snark attack?
Let’s assume a new rule was adopted today. When would you expect to have it covered in your CEU class?
If your license expires next week — good luck finding a seminar by then. If you renewed it last week, the issue can’t possibly arise before this time next year.
Likewise, look at the prints for the job you’re working on today. Which code cycle was in effect when they were approved? It will take awhile for the new code to be applied at the plan review stage.

In practical terms, how often do you encounter a situation where the latest code has a relevant change? If you learned the trade “the most led fashioned way,” chances are your practices will have anticipated code by decades.

Don’t sell Arkansas short. Heck, what’s better than a ground hog burger for lunch? (Jimmy Dean in the bun instead of beef.)
