All too often companies push the $$$ ahead of the safety of the project. My brother was an electrician that was sent to head up a project at an Air Force base in Texas several years ago. The job supervisor started tell ing to do things that was nothing more than cutting corners. Once he crossed the line of telling to do things counter to the NEC (National Electric Code) he told him no and loaded up his tools and went back to the home office. When he came in, he had a "pink slip" (termination notice) and his final check waiting on him for not violating the NEC. He filed a grievence with the TEC (Texas Employment Commission when he went to collect unemplyoment. Also called the Air Force rep on the job and told him what happened.

After some investigation, the contractor was tossed off the job and not paid for his work at all.
