Over the weekend, I heard a story from a builder. He has two multi-unit residential projects going up in the same town, which were both penalized by the local building inspector taking a progressive interpretation of the building regulations.
He has a different architect for each project, from different out-of-towns. He called each architect to ask for help with the problem.

The second one said, “Let me work up a price for what this is going to cost you.”
The builder raised his eyebrow and asked me, “Who do you think is getting the next project?”
