I am a non-discriminatory accuser. Doesn't matter who it is. Contractor, homeowner, "a buddy who....", none are immune in my eyes. If you're gonna do something, do it at least 3/4 assed. Not running that second 14/2 is 1/16th assed at best.

The first step is finding the lazy piece of s**t that only ran one line from the wall box to the ceiling box. Step two is beating them with a bat until they don't do it again.
You'll need to run a second line from the wall box to the ceiling to have seperate light and fan power. That is, if your fan supports it. Most do.
