PowerUser Conference 2015

So who get's your place at the cool kids' table? I think it should be the sixth person who reached 450 posts; whomever that might be.

Sorry to hear that.

Interesting that ASHI has a training that same weekend in Chicago. Why would they compete with this?

CAHPI has an event too. I have no idea. We do everything we can to avoid other events...they should do the same. Especially when you know the top 200-300 inspection company owners will all be in one room.

I even hear an ASHI Board Member may be bringing a big RV to the event...

Thanks, Jeremiah. Well, my McCrones plans may be off too - $20k worth of dental implants are failing. Looks like next 3 months will be spent at the dentist.

I don't think I am going to make it guys. Had one of our inspectors make a decision to move back out of state which has left us shorthanded. We are now running our as$^s off just trying to keep our realtors happy in a timely manner. In our state they make it such a long drawn out process to get inspectors. I have another in training now but he will not be out until December. It sucks, I was so looking forward to meeting and hanging out with everyone. I just don't know if I can miss the days without loosing some of our gains.

This is our first year as a multi inspector, I know we are learning, but it really sucks when your business is built around the dependability of others.

There is also an ASHI event in Detroit. I'll be at the PUC on Saturday, but on Sunday I'll be in Detroit as the 203K Queen is having an event there on Sunday. Lots of driving will be done in 1 1/2 weeks.

That's a pretty bad move on both their parts. I have to imagine it hurts their numbers- they certainly don't have any big companies present

I guess this is NEXT WEEK!!!!

Yes, Sheehan, you get your 1st Annual White Towel Award next week.

Hey, Chad. IMHO, Sunday would be better spent with ISN Con than with the Red Dress.

Potential big changes are coming to the 203 world. Now is not a good time to try and get in. Refining and taking what you have to a much higher level is a much stronger move right now.

What does everyone usually wear Nathan? Don't want to come over or under dressed, lol. BTW, anyone have a hookup on airline tickets, cheapest i'm finding for a morning flight Friday and evening flight sunday for me and the wife is $756.50.

The same thing you wear at inspections: Hi tops unlaced, long gym shorts, wife beater tee, ball cap sideways.

I appreciate the opinion. I am already part of the 203. She's going to unveil her new software. We have already been made aware of the new/current changes effective as this past Monday. More changes will be coming with all of this. I will spend some time with the wonderful People from ISN Fri and Sat evenings so I can get a little info since I won't be there on Sunday.

Cool, Chad. Sorry I did not realize you were already on with it.

Looking fwd to seeing you next weekend.

Is the other guy from Peoria, Cameron, attending PUC?

I don't know. I haven't seen Cameron on here in maybe a couple months. I almost went to work for him, but he decided to hire an assistant. When he told me he was going to hire an assistant is the last time I have heard from him.
