    Four years locating...and I still have a job. The pictures above are an inside joke to the three key points of locating, Safety, Quality, Efficiency(Production). We are pep-talked every day on these three points but anyone with a half of brain knows that by the end of the day the only thing that matters is when the reports are run everything is black. Red is very Bad!!!!

    So the Suits that sit in the office eating a cream cheese bagel over these reports don't get it or care to when the reports start showing up red.
    If you need to do a 2.0 or 3.0 with multiple utilities and about ten to twelve of these show up daily, the frustration starts to build.

    So when the time consumer leaves and i still have a job, the stress level goes down and i am a happier worker.

    Oh and if my company ever bids on them in the future I hope they try to make it profitable instead of underbidding it dirt cheap to secure the contract.
