Inter check actioned - satis
So many inspections , so little time.
Not to worry , Keith 'King of the Grabbers' can do the known problem areas with his welding goggles as a viewing aid in return for a hundred hours O/T and he's not even got cover.
That's not a problem as Sid ' The unsrupulous shift manager' will clear the cards later with his trusty ,well worn , communal stamp , conveniently left in the unlocked desk drawer for the other Masonic lodge members to abuse. It just needs another re-ink before the dirty deed is done.
Now it's last day of the hangar check , all but a few defects complete , routine actioned , function & leak checks finished , but hang on , where did all these additional job cards come from ?
Lucky there's Sid's stamp to hand.
Fact or fiction you decide but there's one thing remaining that bothers me .
In a safety dependant industry such as this , is it ethical to have a manager who although a full CRS holder & who's role is essentially an admin one is allowed continued use of his/hers stamp for other than signing the CMR and who's pay structure is performance related?
Conflict of interest, of course not!
So what should you do in a senario such as above , do you ?
A) Commit the ultimate sin by spilling the beans , assuming you can prove the allegation & suffer the retribution for your whistle blowing.
or
B) Turn a blind eye & carry on as usual because after all he/she is one of us , a licenced engineer & if you s##t on them your s######g on the rest of us.
or
C) Do the same as they do & succumb to peer pressure because it must be the norm if you want to get the a/c out on time .
AC.
