   this is how professionals have always operated. But you let people know you're going to be back late from lunch, for instance, as a courtesy.

     @sickburnbro in any position where i've been in charge of people that's what i've always told them. i don't care, as long as the work you are expected to do gets done. if you get it done 3 hours early, go home i dont give a shit

     @graf Yeah. A long time ago that was mostly how things were as well. The prussian system in schools and highly regulated manufacturing line work changed that, because you needed to have people sitting at a line doing mind-numbing piecemeal work where they could never leave early.

     @trjjb @graf yeah, production floors can be extremely stupid. Which is why ultimately replacing the majority of the repetitive work with robots isn't the worst thing ever.
     
     The bad thing about it is that it doesn't get rid of the retarded excel driven idiots that are the type that made factory floors the nightmares they were.
     
     Those are the sorts that are going to try to play dumb tricks with highly automated lines to "save money" and end up hosing shit to an unimaginable degree.

     @graf @sickburnbro Working in a FACTORY of all places has taught me niggas do indeed be gay and retarded.
     Do the exact thing you are expected to do, but in a different way than the foreman told you to, while saving time and not bringing the quality down (you actually improve it a lot of the time)? Nope, no, be a good little nigger slave and follow massa's instructions to the letter, no matter how profoundly idiotic those instructions are, because they were written by an HR sheboon that never set her obese foot on the production floor.
     Finish all of your assigned work early? You better make yourself look busy and pretend you are still working, because if the production director sees you, the foreman will get chewed out for slacking off. Literally what the fuck am I supposed to do? Continue working WITHOUT the parts I need to assemble shit? Because warehouse isn't bringing anymore before my shift ends, since those parts don't physically exist yet.
     I got my ear chewed off a number of times because I was apparently supposed to stand in front of an empty QC window, instead of sitting down to wait for another part to arrive (sometimes the interval between one part leaving QC and another coming in was 3+ minutes)
