Power Trip

You know, I have seen more often, People on here going to great lengths and just, extra steps, on writing programs to keep others out of PC-DMIS and the programs. I think if you spent that effort teaching others, how it works, how it functions. Lets face it, the CMM is an instrument used for quality, If a person is in quality, do we hide Calipers, OD, ID mics, indicators, surface plates, blocks. I know there are people out there, who might think, That their job is threatened. Paranoid.Alien Then there are others who say, that's what the customer request, my hands are tied. Your customers are not at your place all the time, nor are you, what happens when something goes wrong, are you going to end your vacation and head back to fix it? are the customers going to come over and fix it? Last but not least, The power trip people, They have in their feeble little heads "I'm GOD, You will bow down to me and worship me, My intelligent level is superior to yours" The only thing I can say to those people is "S-h-i-t and fall back in it" Just my 2 cents for the day Rolling eyes

This is what got me saying what I said. I always said there are no dumb questions, just dumb answers. Well I might have to revisit that saying.

    Something you said there triggered me a bit. At the shop I work at, we are not allowed to talk to the machinists. We put the parts (good or bad) on a table for the machining manager to pick up and take back to the machinist. If the machinist has an issue, he talks to his supervisor who then talks to my supervisor who then talks to me. Information going through 2 extra people can get lost or misinterpreted and its ridiculous.

    Sorry, rant off.


    I can sum that up with one word

    "Corporation"

    You do one job. Even though your capable of doing others, You will not walk, talk, or move, unless we say so. If you have to use the bathroom, we will hire someone to pee for you.

Children
  • True. If they want to keep wasting material trying to get a good first part, that's on them. We had one part recently that it took them 24 tries to get us a good part... AND IT WAS A STUPID SIMPLE PART!!! All because the information wasn't being relayed correctly. No one ever came to talk to me about it, they just kept running them.

    I'm getting off topic here. Rant off again.
