ParticipantThe permitting process and enforcement of building codes and grading is a benefit to society at times and it is an immoral shakedown racket at others. I really know this.

I agree with you. That’s why look at the big picture rather than the silly little rules.

June 9, 2011 at 10:40 PM #702209Guest[quote=UCGal] Actually, Brian is pretty consistent on this… He has no issues with hiring undocumented workers. etc.. He follows the rules when it suits him. And ignores them when it doesn’t.
At least that’s my perception.[/quote]
I believe that I’m more honest than most on the reality of building contracting; and I say it like I see it. That might upset some sensibilities.
What’s the meaning of “hiring” anyway? Would I put an undocumented worker directly on my payroll? No.
Do I check the immigration paperwork of the independent contractors who come to my house to do work? No.
The reality is that you might hire a contractor who’s very professional, speaks English well and appears “legal”. He will do the hand-holding and the proposals…. but the guys who actually do the dirty grunt work, you really don’t know their immigration status.
I doubt that many homeowners ask for legal work documents prior to “hiring” a contractor.
