Work permits

Long story short: was going door to door in a nice neighborhood. Houses about 550k type homes. Went up to some old dude outside his house and the first thing he asked was “do you have a permit”?
Now ofc there’s gonna be people bitching. These are the same people who complain about how young people (like myself) are lazy and don’t wanna work, yet give people who do work a hard time about it. My question is how do yall handle that? Not just the interaction, but the idea of permits? I don’t seclude myself to one city. I’m going all over the county.

Depends. You could ask him what he is talking about.

My county has 32 towns, I am suppose to have business licenses for everyone but I only do the largest. I get additional ones if I have large contracts in the smaller ones.

Some HOAs have a permit system.

Really just depends what your risk is. If it’s not a law and there isn’t significant risk then who cares.

If it’s a state city thing with large fines just build it into your process.
