jesus Chrysler!
"this place has honestly moved from prison camp status to being a real good job, since the decision to go to 8 hour days...thank you very much!" or a similar facsimile there-of will be placed on the head of HR's desk anonymously, just to show that someone cares that they made the right decision (for once). the extra 4 hours of free time (per day) means that that second pooperdog walk isn't rushed (or missed all together). yesterday, was a calamity. first, we're told (rumor from 2nd shifts 'line support') that we'll be shutting down Chrysler's line by Thursday, if we don't get X amount of parts out per shift built (X=an impossibly high number to reach...I forget the exact number she quotes), then, the rails that were delivered to us for tonight's run were all bad, so instead of assembling parts every 34 seconds, it took a good [say] minute 20 for the tester to cycle thru each bad part, meaning many many less finished parts by the end of the night then what was expected to be built. by second break, I'm thinkin' if this were a true calamity, they'd have all the big wigs hovering around trying to figure out how to fix this. and almost, as if they read my mind, they were out there scurrying about, once the line started back up...between track marriage not supplying us with what we need to run, and then running bad parts to boot, are numbers are looking bad. what this means in the near future. I can only speculate [news at 11].
I've had me a couple bad pork dreams lately. That latest crock pot batch of ribs were left in the cooker a bit too long, making them tougher and a bit harder to digest, creating completely twisted dreams. I take a break from my almost all pork diet and get a subway sub. dreams are much more tame after that. Subway, dream fresh!
.I gotta good 5 hours to go before heading to work (what?! what happened to the title "stalag"...?). the wood-panel submarine needs some cleanin' up, and maybe I'll catch up on my John Stewart/ Steven Colbert shows *plan*
