Life’s Lessons

Being a female, I have an excuse not to know much about machines especially that I don’t have the inclination to learn those things. But my gender is not an excuse when I worked formanufacturing companies for five years. Thanks to that anyway that I was able to know some things. I thought what I know is enough and I already know a lot until I encountered the word CNC machine. I had to seek the help of search engines to know what CNC means – and that is Computer Numerically Controlled – am I right? Correct me if I am wrong. Read more… »

I almost don’t want to go out of the office for business purposes when I was still working. The company car is non-airconditioned and I can’t understand why it seems to be so hot going around in that car. I’m used to ride in non-airconditioned taxis and PUJs around the city but being inside the company car is totally different. Maybe it’s all in my mind because the driver doesn’t complain about it.

In my former workplace, we dealt with cases of lost company and personal properties. Cases like lost of unused cotton flour sacks, copper wires that costs hundreds of thousands, scrap materials, cellular phones, etc. I cannot even count with my fingers how many times we’ve called the management of the Security Agency to a meeting regarding such cases. We’ve been facing such problems because the company has no security cameras…not even one. Those cases could have been prevented if only the company has taken into consideration that CCTV cameras are needed to monitor everybody at every corner of the plant’s premises. Security Agency even proposed that the management should consider installing CCTV cameras to identify the theft within the company but until I resigned, I haven’t heard of the proposal’s approval. However, should they consider the proposal, I would suggest that they’d get CCTV cameras from reliable companies such as IT Planet that provides the best quality of security cameras. A Panasonic CCTV camera would be a nice choice if in case they would purchase for the plant. I just hope the management will decide soon so the thieves (I know they are many) in the plant would be caught soon or if they wouldn’t be caught, they will stop from stealing company’s properties.
