New product came through QA finally. Within 5 minutes i had to push it back because stuff didnt work. Then once SQA came to look at it we found so many issues. And to think they wanted to test, and ship, a brand new product from scratch in 3 days and hope itd work!

I hate/love this company...

That is my entire job. One of our fabricators came in yesterday with questions about part marking location on a newly finished assembly. Turns out the reason she couldn't figure out the drawing view was that the welder welded a flange on backwards... Reject!

You should do QC on piping at a power plant during construction.

I found control valves and check valves installed and welded in backwards. And this was after the welds was heat treated.

I wasn't QC there. I was just walking down the different systems and learning where everything was at and the flow paths. It was part of my training to operate the plant.

Off all week, getting caught up on miscellaneous chores and yard work. Today I started to power wash the house ( a yearly fall event ) started on the back 1/2 first, got half way through that, and threw out my back

done for at least the rest of the day!
Yesterday I smashed my head on a low overhang, and took out a nice chunk out of my bald azz head

got me so pizzed off I quit at 2 and called it a day
There’s always tomorrow

Chit on company time, and sweat on your time. And not the other way around.

Boss makes a dollar. I make a dime. That’s why I poop on company time.

That doesn't look like a sip of the koolaide. Looks more like gulping it.

Well, I wouldnt mind a set of the deep sockets, the S bend wrenches and the half moon wrenches and while I am at it, a set of 0 offset wrenches.

Think I'm done buying hand tools. Got everything I need almost. If I need something while doing a project. I'll get it.

I want a bigger air compressor. Have a 60 gallon now. But I could use a 120 gallon with a higher pressure shut off. Also want a Lincoln Precision TIG 225 Welder with the water cooler for the tig torch. A plasma cutter would be nice too.

Press brake for bending sheet metal. A shear for cutting sheet metal. Tubing bender. A lift. AND a bigger garage for putting all of this in.

All ready have a Lincoln Pro Mig 180, and a Lincoln AC/DC stick welder.
