  • Started working at a new company a few weeks ago that has given me total control of the CMM Programming duties. They started me off with more money than my previous job and its 1/3 of the drive. Where I was previously, I was not allowed to change/improve anything without approval from a boss (who knew next to nothing about the capabilities of a CMM). The best part was leaving a toxic work environment where I was miserable every day to something I can walk away from with a feeling of accomplishment and pride is a great feeling. I honestly don't know what took me so long to make a change.Slight smile


    I feel you. My old job had an operations manager that was upset that I couldn't scan parts on the CMM. He said I was either being difficult or was ignorant because all CMM's can scan. The CMM was an old Tesa Microhite 4-6-4 with a manual head. Not only did it not have a scanning head, the controller wasn't even capable of supporting one. He had an engineering degree so he knew more than I did about CMMs.
