Another example of "Scotty on the Scene."
A selector came to me today and said, (in Spanish) that a jack was broken way over in aisle "A".
So I immediately went to the aisle and saw this...
Yeah. A Raymond double pallet jack with the handle busted completely off!
Immediately I took pics with my fabulous new "Smart?" phone and sent them to my Boss, Shannon and said, "Meet me here now."
(This photo is one that I took on my "Smart" phone)
Shannon met me at aisle "A" and Kipp also came.
Well, turns out that the operator was going too fast, missed a turn and plowed into the product racks. Snapped the handle completely in two but wasn't hurt.
The plant safety manager soon showed up, a brief informal discussion was had,
and I later made an impromptu speech to all of the second shift about safety.
And just yesterday, Shannon told me that he had completed my evaluation. I should get about a 3% raise....
AND he will recommend that I attend specialized classes on Crown Equipment to supplement my knowledge!
Oh!
And tonight,
I was walking the aisles and found a 2 pound plastic jar of mustard laying in B aisle and took it to Johnny, the 2nd shift Supervisor.
It had a routing sticker on it and must have fallen from a selectors pallet.
I told Johnny, "I found this in the aisle. I hope that it makes it to it's destination."
He said, "Scotty, you're a good man. I'm gonna put in for you to be 'Employee of the Month'"
I said, "Can one win the award more than once a year?"
We both smiled.
I then returned to the shop and began to repair the busted handle on the Raymond.
Hope all are well.
Scott
