You guys talk about design for free, well my former foreman who now works for himself had a story to tell me. It seems a nice lady asked him to lay out a kitchen renovation and a new service. Well as he was going over every little detail, he say how she was writing down everything exactly as he was describing it. You know, 1 outlet here, on 12 ga wire, and 1 outlet there on 12 ga, etc. As he watched her write down every little detail he got suspicious of her. So he decided to have a little test ( or fun) with her, and start telling her the wrong stuff. The kitchen recpt. need to be at least 6' apart, 1 circuit is required, 14 ga wire is enough.
Well he didn't get the job, but a month or 2 later he got a call from the lady. She was mad with him because he gave her the wrong information. She wanted to sue him, but he asked her how can she sue him. He didn't get paid for any design, nor did he get the job. She never called him again.
