Work is making me nuts

[imschur]

It's like there is a black cloud hovering over the day job.  Quality complaints up the ass, machinery misbehaving in the oddest of ways and electronics failures for parts no longer available. There is always "something" going on but never like this. Getting sick and tired of it.

Must be the 'Evil Gun Karma' working on you! You need to get rid of those things! <lmao>

I had 100 rounds of subsonic 300 blackout at my desk in plain view for several days. The boss while not a gun guy, he mostly gets it.

Now hold on, here. 

 

When did you build a 300BLK?  And, more importantly, where are the pics of said beast?

 

Your work is making me nuts, too, brother - I miss you, in a Bro-Mance kinda way...  <dontknow>  :))

We used to have times like that in the plant where I worked as a maintenance machinist, but we also had times where we had no real problems for extended periods of time, hop it gets better.

[unforgiven]

As a rule, people will tend to walk all over people who tend to let them. Find your way to the end of your rope brother, then let loose with both barrels. You'll feel better and they'll learn that you will only take so much unjustified flak.

Well I dont bite my tongue in the least but it's way more complicated.

I can sympathize brother. My way of getting leverage on the management is to go hunt up jobs until I get offers I can take up if "negotiations" fall through, but it works incredibly well. It's amazing what becomes possible when their alternative is to start all over with someone else.

[imschur]

Well my boss is my landlord and my boss at my property management side job. Kind of a prisoner until I can get my old lady to buy a house.

[blue109]

Wow...that's a bad situation.

10-4. Disregard the previous statements, I'll rectify the cranial-rectal collision immediately.  <nutkick>

So customer is complaining the final product we ship them is concave/convex. They were correct, I wont dispute this. My issue is management doesnt believe the product has always been like this. It's an insignificant visual because the calculations of some moves are not whole numbers. The motion controller doesnt translate perfectly and this combined with a very coarse ballscrew results in a .0006 error with every layer. When the product is at full OD the total is .080. Today I brought in two factory reps. Confirmed what i know. Were not able to correct it at the time. Management still wont believe it. I finally asked them if they thought a fucking ghost entered both machines and edited the code. Very frustrating

Could be a linear guide buckling or worn to a concave arc?

 

Depending on what they're doing .08 may be tiny or huge....it's all relative. :)
