I'd love to talk shit about the current administration too, but I've been in buildings where fire inspectors would cut off the power cords of any space heaters they found because they violated code.
The people who hire the fire inspectors don't actually care, but the fire inspectors do. Probably because they've smelled far more charred human flesh than anyone should.
I've never seen a fire inspector in any building I've worked in. Twenty five years on the job and it's never happened.
I believe you, but your anecdote isn’t really evidence of anything.
And I've personally witnessed the fire marshal annually inspect my last 3 jobs. I may not have been present for the inspections at other jobs.
I've been working about ~15 years and every job I've ever had I've seen a fire inspector about 6 times
