Auditors afraid of licensed locksmiths

By T.F. Stern

You want to hear something interesting? The Department of Public Safety/Private Security Bureau (DPS/PSB) auditors are afraid of licensed locksmiths; I'm not making this up folks. My copy of Locked-In, a monthly publication of the Greater Houston Locksmith Association, had its monthly report regarding the last DPS/PSB meeting.

"Because of some licensees working from their homes, and not from a storefront, some of the inspectors are concerned for their safety when auditing. It was recommended that a phone call be placed to schedule a meeting outside the home between the auditor and the licensee or for the auditor to take a state trooper with them to the home."
