I was involved in CI for a bit, but will not have anything to do with sick smegma as I think it is more of a waste of time and effort. As for CI, all this is is nothig more than a talking shop designed to make 'hands on' people make management decisions. The CI project that I was concerned with did not have the required outcome as far as I was concerned. But it shouldn't take a shop floor bloke to find that there was a batch of oil in stores 10, yes, 10 years old. All this highlighted to me is that there are too many people in positions of authority in our place that do damn all and hide behind their status. Obviously something must change, but to what and to whom I don't know. But if I was in charge.............. (don't even go there).
Now every one who reads these pages knows that we are not the most efficient organisation in the business; unless they know different. So come on all you engineers out there, twiddle the key boards and post some replys about how good or bad your company is at making fundimental decisions. We would love to hear from you.
