    I wish my manager would quit. He can't get fired. I take a day off, Friday, and come back to chaos, nothing done, no emails responded too, nothing. Abso-fuckin-lutely useless this guy is and gets paid $160k to be it. Lives on his mobile phone all day texting his partner. I seriously don't know how they have a conversation when he gets home. He would have nothing to talk about.

    He'd have plenty to tell her about how much of a slog his day was.

    No relations at all. He started in the company 26 years ago as a store person. Climbed, aka for sucking the bosses appendage, his way up to being the manager. This fecker can't even manage to get to work on time. Me. I'm here an hour early everyday, I take no breaks at all and leave the office at 5pm, and still rarely have time to do everything. I'm writing this now only because I am taking a 5 minute break.

    I've complained to the owners officially 4 times, nothing gets done about it. They are too gutless to confront him about it. So I just spent $2400 of companies money on a new 30T wood splitter and took it home. I am going to wait to see if they ask me to pay for it. Lol. I'm tipping they won't as they know how pissed off i am right now.

    Thats a risky move I would think, essentially theft. in the eyes of the law, unauthorised use of company funds. Are you that keen on looking for a new employer?

    Every one of those articles are produced and packaged and chilled and transported and stacked and restacked and presented and maintained in an environment from the start to your purchase in Multi Milllion dollar processes and buildings with dozens and dozens of participants in the process - this is an often lost 'direct cost' that people dont recognise when they pick up their food at the supermarket. If you were to walk from one end of a food manufacturing process for a mars bar for example you would be blown away at how much gear and processes are involved to make then package that sugary blob. Having spent 30 yrs + in food manufacturing and now 12 in mining I am not surprised at the costs, as every step has be remain profitable to be there to do the job right.

    You could purchase another and send it my way, on second thoughts can you just buy and freight seasoned Iron Bark my way? Blocks will be fine *L*

    Yet to work in any factory that is so automated.. There are so many actions and things a machine cannot do, however processes can be configured to achieve the same results via different methods. From a production line perspective, I hate to say, the human is the weak link in any automated process, which is why they are removed/substituted wherever possible. To achieve the standards we expect and have the convenience with the quality, you need to automate, and to do that it costs.
