Yup.  We had an OSHA inspection at my business this summer.  He started
going through his concerns.  I was polite and attentive.  When we were done
I asked for a list of the problems that he had found so that I didn't miss
any.  He refused, saying that he didn't want to cite me, and if he
documented anything he'd also have to issue fines.  Nice guy, could have
been real expensive.  But he made it clear that he would return at some
point, and everything he mentioned better be taken care of.  I did it
gladly, even though some of seemed a little silly and a little expensive -
it was a lot cheaper than getting fined and then still having to fix it.

OSHA inspectors, fire marshals, boiler inspectors and tax auditors always
get our full cooperation!

I worked for a manufacturing company about 15 years ago, our Plant Manager
was an ex Drill Seargant who ran the shop accordingly. One day OSHA showed
up to do an inspection. When they started finding things that they thought
were wrong our Plant Manager told the inspector to "get the hell out of my
plant". That was an expensive day.
