 No local contractor would be caught dead driving a screw.  Power
staplers, even for framing and sheetrock.  When they can't get a staple
big enough, they use nailguns powered by .22 blanks.  I don't think most
of them would recognize a hammer or know its proper use.

 My shop is put together with screws and construction adhesive.  No
nails anywhere.  Even the framing and trusses are screwed together.
