He points out I need a new fire extinguisher, a new back up battery for an exit sign, and one other dumb thing. He then proceeds to walk into our office kitchen and starts to ask questions about the oven. He then breaks out his book (I know this is going down hill) and starts to read off all this crap about having an oven. When he is done he said the only way I can keep the oven is to install a comercial grade hood like you see in resturants ( they run around 7,000 to 10,000) for a stupid little oven. I'm like its been in here for other inspections but he did not really care because he has that F!^% bage on his coat. F^!% any common sense as this is a small office and its not like we are cooking dinner for entire world. Who thinks of all this crap? Then when its all over he hands me a bill for $50 and then it all clicks and its just another way to hit businesses for more money. Now he is over inspecting the other two units in here which I also own so I'm sure those tenants will be over here when he leaves if there's any problems.

Welcome to the "Fire Marshall" shakedown. We had it here in VB last month.

I've had the Fire Marshall come in before but they stopped like 4 years ago. This guy who came in was a city employee from city hall (nothing to do with the fire department) who does nothing but safty inspections so they can charge that $50.00 which is new.

If I was you, I'd club him over the head with a pistol, put him in your trunk, take him out to the woods, and chain him to a tree.

I thought about that but I don't have a trunk.
