put backs

I found out the secret to push backs is to push the pallet in and go way down on the tilt.

Thursday

I sit here throwing the cat off of me for the 5th time, cats don't respect personal space. Today was worth blogger about because I was able to go through a piece list and pull pieces from a bin all the way down my list. I do this slow ass way to do the pieces by getting the pieces and bags as the list goes on but I know to get faster I need to get everything out of the piece cart then go to the bags.

Weekend

On Friday I did 7 batches. No accident. I got steady growth going on. I tried most of the weekend to get the GTP mod going for computer. For some reason I have more fun installing games than I do actually playing them. I went down to Matt's to watch UFC and the fights were all great except for Woodly vs. Stephen Wonder Boy Thompson. That one sucked.

Last Couple of days

I have done better the last couple days in building batches. The batches don't look like complete shit which is nice. I did some bitch work yesterday to free up manpower to smash out some batches. I got nominated for a 25 dollar gift card for my team player attitude. Ugh. I have been journaling my food and not really cutting any food out. It looks like this candy bar snack pack and tv dinners.

Weekend

I had a pretty good weekend. On Saturday I watched the Penguins win in an outdoor game. I bowled alright. On Sunday I watched the Daytona 500 and I spent 6 hours trying to get Nascar 2003 to run on PC. I got it to work and it is old but it is FUN.

Damn I haven't blogged for a month! That is crazy. Today at work I had two rooms printed off 2 and 3. They weren't running but they were way behind. So I did 2 pretty fast 5 batches, well the 3rd shift supervisor complains to my co worker why am I not working on the room that is running. I explained what I was doing, but I told them I would jump on the room that is running right away. So I made a mistake misreading the right thing to do. Everyone dog piled on me the rest of the night calling me dumb and stupid and random stuff. I have thick skin, but I want to make sure I know next time yeah do the ones that the room is running so I won't do this again. Also 901 is a secret number to find partial bags in random areas. Everything else is pretty good. I have up and down moods but like today, people were calling me names but it didn't really hurt my feelings much. Hopefully that trend continues as I mature into someone who just works hard and doesn't give af.

It has been awhile since I have blogged. I have been working 10 hour days and that has left me little time to formulate thoughts. I came to work after holiday break and things were easier. My batch numbers haven't gone way up but they have gone up a bit and the stress has come down a bit since I am getting used to the same things over and over. There are so many small things like under standing the run list inside and out and being able to see the run list and runs inside the run list as an example. If you had Transfer orders that looked like this 5001 5015 5016 5017 5018 4123 4124 4125 you would know the first one is an odd ball the next three are going to be the same materials in a run then it switches to another run of 3 batches of the same material. This helps if you are trying to spread out runs to different people. It also helps plan the night. Working the computer has gotten easier as well. So overall I hope I don't get fired because every day I show a bit more progress. Today was pretty fun because our safety director asked me to come up during a meeting and demonstrate stuff. Since I was a trainer it was simple as hell to know transitions and questions and things to bring home. I really need to be on a stage or a trainer somewhere because I have a knack of seeing inside the game of the dynamics of speakers and trainers. It means something to me when I have the balls to sit right square in front and participate. So much of my life I just wanted a paycheck I understand now I can make trainers be at ease if I participate and I also have to make sure I am not an over participater. Chiefs lost I may go into a blog about that later. Alex Smith and Andy Reid are just good enough to get to the playoffs and let you down. It was a good season though.
