There Are Going to be Some Changes Here!

Lately there has been a lot of goofing around, mishaps, slacking off, unexplained clutter, costly mistakes, rework and general mayhem in the shop.  As result and as you might expect, productivity and output has been low and scrap and waste loss has been high.

To resolve this I decided that the shop needed a set of rules or CODE  as it might be.  Having a CODE would help govern behaviour and activities in the shop so the shop could be more productive and more predictable in terms of quality and quantity of output.  This would also make the shop a much more pleasant place to work and be.

I did a little research and found a set from a blog called Flying Shavings.  I found that I could modify the only slightly to best meet the needs of my shop.

So effective immediately, this CODE and its tenants are in place.  Everyone who uses the shop has been duly notified of their existence and violators will be dealt with in the most extreme manner ( yet to be determined).

This is the first round and these will be renewed as required and as better and more profound thought for this CODE comes to mind.

Here they are.
