    Look, man, I'm trying to be as polite as possible, but I'm telling you that you have no idea what you're talking about. You're so invested in pidgeon-holing your solution into a problem that doesn't exist because you lack the awareness of a workplace outside of your experience, and refuse to accept such a place could exist.

    I absolutely hate wasting time and I am always looking for ways to increase efficiency. I make lists of required tools and consumables for each maintenance card to minimize walking to and from toolboxes and supply. I am constantly seeking out time wasters to remove them, to allow the guys who work for me to focus on their job and get what they need accomplished. I have also worked in my field, in this organization, from the lowest-level worker and every step up to where I am now, for 12 years.

    So when I tell you, who don't even know what field I'm in, that you are offering solutions in search of a problem, and that they wouldn't work in my workplace, maybe you should show a tiny bit of humility and think I might know better than you how my own workplace works.

      There are systems already created to solve your problem, allocating resources in a shop. Just because you haven't used them in your experience doesn't mean they don't exist 🫣.

      I'm not offering solutions in search of problems. I said these daily standup meetings are largely pointless, you said "but my shop needs them to allocate resources!" That's not me searching for a problem. This is literally the perfect job for an automated system. You get rid of any human error as well.
