We once had a large black female OSHA inspector tell us that we needed to have a rescue boat on site and the workeres needed to be wearing life jackets when they were working near a drainage ditch that had 6” of water in it.
We asked to see that section of the regs, but she couldn’t find it, though she was just sure it was in there.
Wrote us up for insufficient MSDS sheets on dangerous products such as the limestone rip-rap we were using on the job

A set of seating is being torn down outside the Plymouth Wildcats varsity boys’ baseball field, not long before the season begins, because the fields for boys’ and girls’ athletics must be equal. A group of parents raised money for a raised seating deck by the field, as it was hard to see the games through a chain-link fence. The parents even did the installation themselves, and also paid for a new scoreboard. But, after someone complained to the U.S Education Department’s Office for Civil Rights, an investigated by the department determined the new addition was no longer equal to the girls’ softball field next door, which has old bleachers and an old scoreboard.
Telling little kids they need a business license and restaurant inspections to sell lemonade?
This is so frustrating, because nothing changes! We are trapped in a growing blob of government and there is no escape.
