@ March 24, 2005 9:18 PM in Just had our Inspection... What a Joke!
Call 617 727 9952 and ask for Joe Peluso Director of State Board of Plumbers and file a complaint, the inspector in question should lose his job. He is not doing justice to the general public or the plumber, sooner or later someone once again will lose their life. Inspectors are paid to protect the public. File a complaint against the bastard, and help someone future.Inspector
