Since we are continuing with this tangent, I should complete my story about the NH printing company playing Muzak, or whatever it was.
So one Friday we were told we could each have a meeting with our supervisor to give our recommendations as to how to improve the plant. When it was my turn, I suggested that the Muzak they were playing was the same music that they played in insane asylums to keep the inhabitants docile and pliant and that the entire atmosphere of the plant could be improved with better music.
Monday morning I show up for work and was told to see my supervisor immediately. He told me that I had a "bad attitude" and even though I had never screwed up a single plate, even those with complex four color screens, I was fired. Also, since I had been fired, there was not going to be any workman's compensation.
That was the best thing that could have happened to me: I left Suncook, NH; moved to Cape Cod and started a career in electronics.

- Wow, what an a-hole company (not to mention stupid). Glad getting away from them turned out well for you. nt - Rick W 09:35:08 03/19/21 (0)
