[QUOTE="slackjawedyokel, post: 7934921, member: 34254"] That’s the trouble though isn’t it. I’m not alone in having a string of inspectors who were a bit of an arse. When I’m being inspected I can either say ‘oh how silly of me, I’d better put that right and fill in the compliance forms’ or I can stick to my guns - tell them they are plain wrong and tell them I will query their fitness to inspect with the assurance body. If I do that, I can be sure they will go through EVERYTHING with a fine tooth comb until they nitpick something legit, which could be more problematic for me to rectify. In a way I have a little sympathy for inspectors marking me down for non-offences (like the inspector I mentioned further up the thread that decided right at the end of an inspection that they’d seen a cow with only one official tag). They have performance targets to meet on the percentage of farms getting non-compliances and the ones being arses are not hitting the target. They know that. I know that. And in this situation I make damn sure that they know that I know that they know that. RT is a waste of my time and my money. Sooner it’s replaced by something fit for purpose the better. [/QUOTE]
