So this week was a disaster, I'll be working the entire weekend to make my Monday deliveries and stay on track. My problem.
What I would like to find out is what accountability do you guys have, whether you are employee's or employers. For the most part I am talking about machine operators and production helpers with a good amount of time on the job.
1st event- One guy takes it upon himself to debur parts we have made for years in such a manner they are unusable...500 bucks lost in materail, plus I have to work all weekend remaking parts and of course pay for the additional materail. Do I can him? Do I make him pay for materail? Is it my fault for not checking what he was doing...he's only done the job for a couple years now. Maybe I should can myself...
2nd event- Parts come out wrong because his Verneer took a crap, mind you I bought it for him so he could measure parts.
One- should I expect even the production help to have their own verneer that they pay for?
Two- even a production guy should be able to measure within a few thousands if shown how...correct? Am I off base here?
3rd- I keep a good amount of deburing tools around but they constantly disappear. I wind up giving out my tools so they can get parts deburred, then of course when I need I can't locate my tools. Would it be wrong to expect each person to have their own deburring tools. If they loose, give to someone else, throw away, break, forget home they buy a new one. I'd probly buy the first set for them...again... but they would buy the rest unless they turn in a dull tool or something like that.
Thanks for any insite, I have a pretty good idea of what I'd like to do... but some different points of view would be helpfull.
