Re: Frustrations with Minor Technicalities

If something was overlooked Thursday, and on Friday right before a match we're told something needs to be fixed, that might upset me.
Apparently we just have different outlooks on life. No big deal.

If something I did wrong was overlooked on Thursday, then pointed out to me on Friday, I would do my best to bring it into compliance. Been there, done that! But it's not worth getting upset over it, nothing anyone can do about human inspectors not being perfect. Obviously in your example I was even less perfect than they were, since I (and my entire team!) most likely had at least several weeks to find the problem and didn't find it. I personally have a hard time blaming an inspector for not finding something in a 30 minute inspection on Thursday that I couldn't find in over 6 weeks and several hundred hours during build season.

Do your best to fix whatever you can, try to analyze how you can do better next time (better understanding of the rules), and carry on!
