- And more importantly, what kind of plant are we talking about here, anyway?

Always think you have tripped me up don't you!
I have two plants that I work in.
One makes brake rotors and has the huge empty office space with only a handful of managers/staff in it. The plant itself is busier then hell and running 24/7.
The other (3 hours away) assembles suspension modules (all steering, axles, brakes, etc in one bolt on module for front and one for back) for the Chrysler minivans. Chrysler has the new platform coming out next year and it has radically different modules then the old ones. We will have to run both lines at the same time for a year or so while they change over platforms. This requires a whole new plant to be built. Once the new platform is the only one being built we will close the old plant. This is why I have to spend every Tuesday in lovely Detroit for the next few months.


Listening to old ladies would be bad enough but you can only imagine the discussion and debate that occurred between 6 engineers and 2 top level managers! I had to sit through the whole Great Paint Debacle of 2015 for an hour and a bit before we got to the subject that I was actually on the call for (fire suppression system requirements and we spent about 3 minutes on it).


All your pics didn't come up! Did you have this plant?

That's a good plant, wish I'd thought of that!
Your IT guys probably have a filter blocking either potted plants or Robert Plants.
If you just give me your IP address, username and password I'll punch a nifty little hole in their nasty firewall for you.

The potted and Robert came through fine!
One of my myriad duties includes monitoring the security aspects of IT so I can turn the filters off whenever I wish (how do you think I access a forum?) so I politely decline your kind offer.

A long time ago, in a board room far, far away...
During an exceptionally boring meeting where it quickly became obvious that nothing was going to be decided, I shot my boss a text message, something like "do you really want to pay me to sit here and yawn for 3 more hours?".
He looked at his phone, promptly stood up, pointed at me and said "Emergency. You, follow me. Now!" we walked out, I looked at my boss, and he said "I couldn't stand it either. Let's go get coffee."

So you're seeing the ghosts of images I haven't even posted? You need an exorcism, not a witch doctor.

Why does everyone keep saying that?! It's really annoying. What I need is more coffee. And some Redbull.
And it'd be great if my monitior would stop blinking on and off and my keyboard layout would stop randomizing itself all the time.
