Continued minor swerve.

My company does UL certified integrated electronic security systems (burglar alarms, access control, fire systems, CCTV, and asset control.) While we prefer to do all the work ourselves, we often use subcontractors on larger jobs. We are just as often the subcontractor on others' larger jobs.

As a subcontractor (who will be using a sub-subcontractor for the actual installation,) we are about to install a new fire alarm system in a complex of six large buildings that hold a Catholic chapel, a girls' elementary school, and a few hundred nuns' residences. The primary contractor wrote into our contract that he had to approve any subcontractors we might want to use, because he was concerned about their personal habits and bad language in this environment.
