Power Trip

KIRBSTER269
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.

  • I can relate to this post so much, the place I work at now is my first time in management so i struggled a bit with training/delegating responsibility.

    I had really poorly trained lab technicians that struggled with using the CMM/computer so I made a completely bulletproof GUI to use. Basically, the operator was responsible for turning the CMM and computer on, clicking the Operator Interface program, scanning the barcode for the correct program, and loading the part. As simple as that was to use, they kept screwing it up (scan wrong barcode, load part backwards, etc.)

    So I was talking to the owner about the difficulty of coding the GUI and what not and he said that "you shouldn't be wasting your time doing that, if they can't follow instructions or training then we should get better people that are willing to be trained." He also mentioned not wanting to trust people that don't know what they're doing using a very expensive machine and verifying parts by looking at the pass/fail column.

    Now I take time to work with people till I feel they're getting it better, then i slowly give them parts and jobs with more difficult set-ups and requirements to bring them along further
