Alabama thread!

Mornin’ Bama! Gonna go hit some trails today I guess. It’s rainy and it’s gonna be muddy. Will make for some slippery fun and great time to teach the boy how to drive a stick.

 

Yes you can do that, but that’s just finding ways to place blame not on the company too. I’m not saying it isn’t a way to look at it, but just because you look at it that way doesn’t mean there isn’t an accident involved. There’s always a reason the accident happened, doesn’t make it any less of an accident.

 

And the rocket city trash pandas mascot is revealed! Sprocket. I think it’s dangerously close to rocket from guardians of the galaxy but hey, people love knock off prinsus right?

I think he looks awesome.

 

If there is a reason it is not an accident, its a result of actions.

 

Depends on what party you look at it from. Like I said you can’t twist your view or words, doesn’t mean it’s not an accident. Accidents aren’t always bad. It’s simply unplanned or unintended.

 

Lol, When a girl gets pregnant it is call an accident, it may have been unplanned or unintended but it was no accident, it was a result of their actions.

 

The 5 Whys method determines root cause, which is ultimately the cause for the incident. I push supervisors here at work to use 5 Whys, to prevent the same incident from happening again. Of course we also implement Lean, Just in Time, Kaizen and 5S as well.

 

So who all is picking up Dobinsons stuff On their Black Friday deals? Looks like I’ll be building my suspension in stages. Rear leaf packs and shocks first.

 

Lol, I have been there and I am so glad I do not have to implement those practices anymore. It always seems it was like a flavor of the day kind of thing with those policies. Do it this way as long as it was the people in charge way of thinking and next month someone else in charge would have another great way and everyone had to change to that way of doing things. It is hard to push policies that you don't agree with, really hard.

 

5 Whys is a good tool and I think Just in Time is too, to help reduce inventory in the company. 5S helps keep your place neat and organized. I’m not too much for lean or kaizen though. Japanese business models developed mainly for high volume, efficient car manufacturing processes. These two concepts don’t apply to all jobs everywhere though.

 

Jeff is trying to say a word In the English language doesn’t actually have any meaning lol. That accidents don’t exist. Just because something has a reason or a fault doesn’t mean it isn’t an accident. He’s just arguing to argue again. Being a dummy.

 

That makes absolutely no sense.

 

Yes but you literally cannot say “it may be unplanned or unintended but it’s not an accident” when UNPLANNED OR UNINTENDED is literally the definition of ACCIDENT.

 

I know I’m just laughing over here at the fact Jeff used the definition of accident to say not an accident lol.

 

Lol he’s adding in that none of them are accidents. Don’t miss that part.

 

I hated just in time. They would order motors based on preventative maintenance guide lines. If you had two fail in the same day you had a line down to save money on inventory? A $500 motor cost us a days production and that line clocked out and went home so the line workers lost money too, that was crazy to me. It is good maybe on ordering supplies but I don't feel it is good at all for maintenance.

 

Lol I never said they weren’t avoidable, just that his claim as to why something “isn’t an accident” doesn’t actually make it “not an accident”

 

Show me one that is not caused by actions, other than acts of god?

 

The definition of accident does not mean it is not caused by actions.

 

Sooo, how can you cause an accident?
