Things are getting out of hand here at work! A CNC guy took vacation to Iceland and returned today and the company told him to go home and call in next Monday to see if he could com back to work! He wasn't sick he went out of the country and came back. Oh boy
Company I work for is in the microbiology testing business. Check for bacteria and viruses in bodily fluids, food and pharrmaceutical products. False positives and negatives are a fact of life in this business. Try to minimize them but biology is messy. These tests were developed in an extremely short period of time and didn't get the full testing and crosschecking that they normally would. Tests were released under an emergency approval.
It's kind of like the Oh crap moment when you've made thousands of good parts mixed in thousands of bad ones, inspection method takes forever and the customer wants product now. You come up with a quick and dirty method to get product out and things fall thru the crack because you can't do your normal due diligence.. Customer should know there are risks but most of the time they don't
Stinks but that's what happens whether it's a machine shop or medical tests.
