When you start building your property, you realize most of the jobs are not difficult to anyone who has a level of manual skill and a brain. Yet its all made into a series of ridiculous hurdles where people demand money for something they clearly think is earth shatteringly clever, or for what is clearly a meaningless bit of paper to prove some incorrect logic. That is a moan
.
The pay off is you find a good proportion of 'qualified' people are still unable to do the trick they have been taught, and they get very upset when you show them how to do it, after swatting it up, and sorting it out for them. That is a joke
.
The difference, I do not expect to get paid for working out how to do other peoples job, but they expect to get paid, even if they cannot do it
.
There you have, in a nut shell, what has gone wrong with our economy. Expectation of recompense for not working, or at least to a acceptable standard. Well I am no longer playing, where I do not not need to. So yeah, I am the worst sort of miserable git a useless employee, or official, can have to deal with. Years of training, and I no longer care about pissing these people off. Most of the time I do not need them, and we can argue if I am right later, like most of the people I know doing stuff like I am

So far saved a fortune, as not been shafted yet, and done everything in house in the absence of suitably good 'specialists'

Looking at plumbing next
