I have a bad headache this morning. I wonder if it's from my adjustment yesterday. My teeth are very sore.
I was very frustrated with myself in my German class. I feel very . . . imposter syndrome. Even though i've been a QE for what feels like forever, I feel like I suck at it. Especially this morning coming in and Omar is following up on my line issues. I also felt like shit from last tuesday when I had a hard time answering all the QIT questions. I should know this and be better at it. I also got rejected for that job I wanted. It was a long shot anyway. I wonder what knocked me out for it.
Leadership came down to the floor and started lecturing me on my job and i got a bit snippy about it. It was the new SM

It was the new Material Flow guy Crowly and he was showing around the new ergonomics engineer we got.
They were next to 301 when it was announced that E1 left of the alternator. and they asked why it wasn't interlocked or what safe guards do we have in place for that.
I pointed out we don't get money like waterloo (he's from Engine works) to interlock everything. But the hoist at 301 is interlocked to put the tension on the alternator so they'd catch it there. it gets caught so it's not a high enough PFMEA to interlock at E1. to which the ergo engineer said that's a lot of walking for someone, if we really have a high turn over.
It's a culture shock down here and he'll get to see it. I told him leadership basically gives the impression of figure out how to do it with ducktape and shoe string (my exact words). He said he's leadership and he doesn't agree.
I told him it was coming from a tier down from him and I don't talk to his level a lot but the impression it was cascaded down from his level.
I got denied for a camera system to detect model decals even though every line has them but mine. The only reason we have them currently is we found some not being used somewhere. We got told point blank in front of the production meeting this information that they would deny a PO request for that. How do you want me to interlock everything? create robust processes? if you cut off any resources I may have.
I'm still pissed off at this conversations and Obi's nonchalance about it. I didn't yell but I didn't hide my feelings either. I hope Crowley listened but I doubt it.

well boy am I lucky i was out yesterday afternoon
Apparently Leadership came out and chewed us out for not standing out on the line which is why Scott told us to be out there this morning.
Well the reason we aren't out there is because the QE was out on a medical appointment and our Supervisor is still out on medical. Our fill in supervisor is covering 3 lines and doing 12 hours a day to do it. Usually X20 has 2 QEs to help cover down but we lost one. We also used to have 2 MEs but also lost one so we are spread thin and struggling. And yet we are down and you come out and chew us out?!
Why not come out and ask how you can help?!?!
I'm so sick of them coming out here with a stick instead of offering solutions or ways to help.
