It is a fine article, but I have at least one reservation...The article quotes August Weiss, a supervisor, detailing what went on "on the line"...having been there and done that, I can assure you that what is done to get a production piece finished and what the supervisor thinks was done are two different things...The production worked will find ways to do the job that are faster, quicker (not the same as faster), safer, cheaper, etc...and the overseer will not be aware of them...may even have the exactly wrong idea of what is being done...

I would definately take the word/description of the worker on the production line over a supervisor who is not involved with the actual work...

...Just my $.02...

And I have worked both sides of the argument...

""I would definately take the word/description of the worker on the production line over a supervisor who is not involved with the actual work...""

A valid point.
I was a manager in a worksop and there was always a worker who no matter how many rules you throw at him he always do it his own way.
