Ive worked for a Sikh Indian on a 4 story hotel and he tried to bypass lots of regulations and did get caught a few times. I had to install door hangars on every door in the rented rooms after the drywall was installed.
Lots of moved electrical lines not on drawing and never added to BPs.
So yeah, I call BS
Somewhere shy of a hundred back in the 00’s when I was an electrician apprentice. Part of the reason I didn’t stay in the trades was all the bullshit I saw. My boss was always on code and he always kept us on code, but that wasn’t the case for all the other trades running around.
I personally never saw a FOB worker cutting code, but that’s probably because the inspector was racist as fuck who would double check out work and hand wave all the white guys.
I fell into the FOB category at the time, but marginaply. I’m an immigrant flavour that’s considered white now.
Ah yes, lets build houses with 0 code by people who are VERY unfamiliar with our climate
Sounds great till you put 2 brain cells together
The workers don’t define code…

That’s a case of someone not following code, has nothing to do with immigration status.
Thats just one case of many I had witnessed. Now take people who are desperate and you will see people cutting corners everywhere.
Plus, how many job sites have you personally worked on??
