Political Labels
Manufacturing | Working
| July 7, 2017
(We use smaller child parts that get welded together to make engine cradles for OEM automobile manufacturers. This day, we ended up with two bins of LEFT [Bracket Type] instead of one LEFT and one RIGHT.)
Worker #1: “Oh, [expletive], we got left [Bracket] in the right [Bracket] riser.”
Worker #2: “Is the label right?”
Worker #1: “The label says ‘left.’ Must have been dropped off last shift by MS.” *Material Services* “Coffee must have run out.”
Me: “Maybe the left parts identify themselves as rights. We can’t discriminate anymore. This isn’t Trump’s America.”
