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.
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??
