If your employer's system requires workout cards there should be workout cards no matter what your personal opinion is on them. It is not a reflection on your work just a line on a page of must haves someplace. It isn't really "your business" it is theirs and if they want to poke their nose in what you are doing while working for their business that is their prerogative.

Yep always is! Auditers always have to find something and there is nothing more annoying than when they say something like "OK so let's see the orientation training records of all the people that started 36 years ago".

Yeah I'm not too eager about it. But to make it easy, I'll just print my Google Docs sheets since that's how I've always kept records of client's routines.

That being said, sharkbite fittings are amazing on copper.
Usually failures happen when not well cleaned and deburred. When i get calls to replace them i can show that the seals were cut by not doing the prep properly. Sometimes a year or more later. Being retired and having a shop is more work than when i was really working. |

As you know I am sure, the trick with audits is to always give the auditor something to report. So pick something you can/want to handle fixing and give it to them on a platter, not too obviously though.. |

I was an auditor right out of college doing the CPA junk. The two biggest lies in auditing:
Auditor: "we are here to help." Manager: "we are glad you are here." |

My employee as the field researcher, I was the study director. Since the experiment was to be conducted under EPA's GLP (Good Laboratory Practices) we had to take along a QA (Quality Assurance) officer, which was a female, that was a pain in the ass. The location was a remote grain storage facility in northern Idaho. Of course is was in the dead of winter and the temperature was 8 degrees F with a wind speed of 35 mph. Yes, the snow was blowing in both directions around the elevator. The experiment was going according to plan, when my ink pen froze up. So, I started using a pencil to record the date. About then the pain in the ass QA, which happened to be a female, stormed out a her heated pickup truck and declared that she would have to invalidate the data because it was being recorded in pencil not an ink pen, as per EPA/GLP regulations! I tried to explain the situation but she was having none of it. As the study director, I TOLD her to put her sorry ass back in her warm pickup truck and let the MEN finish the research project! Yep, she wrote me up, but I appealed it and won my case. (maybe I shouldn't have talked down to her for being a female - ) The end |

So the PEs caved and said my group would all have to take a training class before the next test event and everyone involved in future events of that nature would have to take it too. Fast forward a year and a bit. I moved on before having to take the training, and the QA person now has my old job. You cannot imagine the pleasure it brought me to casually ask the current QA folks whether the current test lead (my old job) ever actually took the mandated training. In the middle of her test event. She hadn't, but I knew that already. |
