Negligence is a common one. Inspectors might not check everything thoroughly. For example, they could miss important safety features in staircases like proper handrails or non - slip surfaces.
One more common issue is poor communication. The inspector might not clearly communicate the problems to the builder or the property owner. So, things that should be fixed remain unfixed, and it can lead to bigger issues down the line. For example, if the inspector doesn't clearly state that a roofing material is not suitable for the local climate, and the builder uses it anyway, the roof could start to deteriorate quickly.
Another issue is the lack of up - to - date knowledge. Building codes change over time, and if an inspector isn't keeping up, they might approve things that are no longer compliant. This can lead to all sorts of problems from energy inefficiency to safety hazards. In some horror stories, there are also cases of conflicts of interest. Maybe an inspector has a relationship with the builder and turns a blind eye to problems to keep the building project moving forward.
There was a case where a building inspector in West Valley City missed some serious electrical code violations. As a result, there were multiple electrical fires in the building over time. The inspector probably didn't do a thorough enough check. They might have been in a rush or not properly trained to identify such issues. This put the lives of the residents at great risk and caused a lot of damage to the property.
Missing major structural problems, like foundation cracks. It can lead to huge repair costs for new homeowners.
Dirty kitchens are common. For example, lots of grease on the stoves and countertops. Also, improper food storage like leaving raw meat out at room temperature.
One common issue is poor customer service. People in 'carchex horror stories' often mention that their calls and emails were ignored or not answered promptly.
One common problem is allergic reactions. Some people are allergic to latex, which is a main component in many condoms. This can lead to itching, redness, and discomfort. Also, as I mentioned before, condoms getting stuck or coming off during intercourse are also common horror story elements.
Dependency conflicts are very common. Different packages may require different versions of the same sub - dependency, which can lead to chaos.
Delayed claim processing is common. Policyholders often have to wait for a long time to get their claims processed.
One common issue was miscalculation of deductions. People either over - or under - estimated what they could deduct, leading to problems with their returns.
System crashes are also frequent. When the EMR goes down, it disrupts the entire flow of patient care. Doctors and nurses rely on it for so many things, from getting medical histories to writing prescriptions. If it crashes, they are left in the dark and have to rely on their memories or paper records if available. This can lead to mistakes and delays in treatment.
One common issue is misrepresentation. People often use old or fake photos on their profiles. So when you meet, it's a completely different person.
