Personally, I don't think any one profession has a lock on either
ignorance or stupidity. Right now I have to deal with the following:
1) an architect who can't figure out how to provide separate areas
for a wet and dry system; 2) an AHJ who rejected a plan because it
didn't show the riser nipples per NFPA 13 (there aren't any); 3) a
contractor who filed a grievance against my license because I drew a
plan for a job he was thrown off of; 4) an engineer who can't grasp
why 4" pipe can't go through a 2-1/2" space; 5), a building owner who
can't understand why he can't feed three standpipes from a 250 gpm
pump; and 6) a mystery designer whose calculations he used for the
hydraulic placard were off by 250 psi. Talk about multi-cultural.
