The Original Old Farts Club

[ness]

I slept through the New Year. Can a bean just might do it tonight cause I'm still out of water we have a broken pipe somewhere TJ trying to track it down. He's fix one spot already. That freeze was something else. Sick of dealing with it.

Morning Unc , It looked bad but that wasnt my fault All i did was drive the forklift...

If you think about it... the sinner was NOT the fork lift driver. He just touched the edge of one naked strut. Watch it again from an arsshole-ity POV for storage design.

WHO was the Manufacturing Engineer (put quotes around "Engineer") who laid out that fargin minefield in that utter idiot fashion???

WHY were the base of the storage holders not solid walls of steel, but just a single, --thin-- piece of angle iron? W.T.F. was the M.E. (not) thinking??

He sure save a shitload of money by using second-hand Erector set parts for storage of a million dollars worth of finished product.

This happened to be one of the idiot things I found in my old job of being the opposite of a salesman <-- I went to companies that wanted to do business with mine to determine if the potential source was:

1. The guy's brother-in-laws garage
2. A hotbed of labor issues
3. An unreliable source due to manufacturing shortcuts/ignorance
4. A potential disaster waiting to happen***

***Yeah, I caught/discovered several companies with that exposure. Some had problems that could be fixed, but some companies (even big ones) were exactly like what that video showed.

I was not a nitpicking PITA, and was offered jobs at several of the companies for what I did. Cummins was one. They were so pleased I caught two major exposures that could have crippled them permanently (and were easily fixed!) that they contacted my superiors trying to get me to come to work for them.

That "storage" daisy-chain minefield with a hair trigger would have been caught by your ole Unca in the Olden Days... And I'd have saved that company a million dollar-plus right up front. <-- Imagine the shipping bottleneck beyond the friggin' mess. A year's output destroyed to save $200 worth of sheet bracing...

I placed a large bag of Styrofoam on the printer to discourage Sweet Melissa from hanging out there, after she puked all over my keyboard, cell phone, and paperwork on my computer desk. She is a stubborn little shit and is now in my face pushing the issue.
