The new building code: Measure it with a micrometer, mark it with a grease pencil, cut it with an axe. Pound to fit, caulk to cover and paint to match....

The new plumbing code: Hot's on the left, cold's on the right. 1/4" to a foot slope to get a turd to flow downhill, the boss is an a$$hole and payday is on Friday......

'bout 12 years ago I was working near Scottsdale, AZ, when a building boom was going on. I was there testing cellular telephone sites, but observed this new building code first hand as construction crews were decking roofs on houses adjacent to the cell site I was working on. Instead of cutting the OSB decking to fit, I watched in amazement as they layed the 4'x8' sheet on the valley of the roof, jumped on it and broke it, then, they nailed it into place. I took pictures it was so amusing, while at the same time disgusting.
