I became the plant SOB about a year and a half ago when I banned the use of cellphones for any reason on the production floor. They are allowed during scheduled break periods or by pre-approved permission, (my wife is having labor pains etc). Just too many near misses and too much screwed up production from people not paying attention to what they are paid to. I have full cooperation from my boss.

So I told him that he would need to give me a doctor's statement of his condition and his nightly requirement and it would be all good, his condition miraculously improved. (what a dose of IBS..irratable boss syndrome) can do.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
