Well, I finally did it, Made meself a blog here... Wasnt going to but John kept nagging me . So I guess next stop is a gallery.. oh the agony. So Anyways, well.. I dunno, I cant promise I'll be writing regularly but Ill try. For those who dont know I work full time in quality control at a company that manufactures communications cables for goverment and industry. Yes, thats right boys, you can feel safe knowing that I inspect and test the cables that go to the department of defence But seriously, we deal with big names (that really being one of them) our customers also include all aspects of the military, weve even built orders for area 51. A movie that came out recently, deja vu, the producers of that movie bought cables from us. SC Johnson, one of the biggest manufacturers of household products in the US, yep, they buy from us. So yea, thats my job, I inspect and test the cables and let me tell you, its quite a job, running back and fourth all day, though that will soon change, the company is expanding and an addition has been built which we will be moving into shortly. No more running back and fourth because QC will finally be contained in the QC department! I know what a novel idea, well novel or not, it hasnt been entirely possible, QC was just too small of a space for us all to fit, and I usualy ended up being the one to relocate and do the testing on the assembly line (if thats what you really want to call it lmao) so, since that area was too small (yes we really needed this addition which we are moving into this week, thank god) so theres first text and second text, and we had two different testers (the machines we plug the cables into after inspected to see that they actually WORK. well first test was on the line, but then any additional work on the cables (hooding, labeling, ect..) was done in another room, where the second test was performed (also known as first and final test) So here I am, first test some cables, lug them across the damn building to second test where they will be finished, test the cables there, run back to the line, and in times of dire need to get an order out which is about every day, I am litterally RUNNING. But the running didnt bother me so much the people do however. one thing I cant stand. and really there is just one big rule I have.. and I dont believe its too much to ask for since its a rule in the company anyways, DONT TOUCH MY PILES!!!!! People just take whatever they want from wherever they want, put whatever they want wherever they want, well WTF. I have a system... these cables are tested, these are not, these are good, these are bad, these are counted/logged, these are not. I have a designated area for them to put cables and take cables from... why can they not stick to that? if they put a cable thats bad in a pile of my tested good cables.. IM THE ONE WHO IT COMES DOWN ON. MY NAME IS ON THE DAMN ORDER! NOT THIERS. SO yea, I cant wait for the new QC area.. assemblers will not be allowed into the QC department ... so yea anyways, thats my job....hope you liked the rant
