  • I mean it was mostly rhetorical, code is adopted at the state level and localities can only make it more strict. Arkansas is seemingly pretty up to date on their adopted codes so I have to imagine they were in 2004 as well. I’m mostly familiar with electrical and I know that shit wouldn’t have passed inspection in 2004. So either codes are completely unenforced in this location or they did a bunch of modifications without a permit that should make it illegal to sell the dwelling until they get inspected.

    Bonus: they’re gonna have to rip that interior siding and wall carpeting off to inspect the wiring anyway.






  • I had a travel job broadly under the umbrella of trades, we were pulling like 85k+ between overtime and per diem working 6 days a week. Maybe 2 months into this job we were having some meeting about the upcoming 2 week break for Christmas and one of the younger guys makes some comment about missing out on hours and says ‘man we’re broke’.

    I’m just sitting there like ??? I thought you guys were exaggerating about the $1k+ nights at strip clubs. I had already maxed my ira contributions and run out of things I could think of to waste money on.
