Okay so the eight hours shifts aren't bad, it's the three twelves that SUCK
Also I don't think my cat is used to me being awake at night again lol

How much turn around time on the 12's?

[Kitalpha Hart]

Uuuuhhhh
The one machine we're running makes 5 bottles per shot, each shot is about a minute, so roughly 270/hour
The others are all two per shot, and are either about 100/hour or 80/hour depending on the size
So accounting for breakdowns and such, the main one we're running is giving about 6k bottles every 24 hours, about 32k each week

The daily flitting in n out of the temps is pain tho cuz it means I have to train a new idiot each day

On a hilarious note, I've been writing the shift down as 3 for third on the daily check-in sheet, and for the start of monday QC was clearly just copying what I wrote cuz she's got a 3 with an A scrawled over the number LOL
At least she's not bungling the time too, I've been using the 24 hour clock, so I've been writing down 1800 for the time

That's a lotta bottles!

I meant how much time off do you get between the 12 hour shifts?

[DaystarNemesis]

Is she just surprised to see you up and moving around, or do you wake her up on accident?

I am also fascinated by this bottling process. Is it messy?

[Kitalpha Hart]

12 hours
Is about twenty minutes to n from work

I think Doink has adjusted to the day hours and isn't used to the night ones yet

It can be when shit gets fucked up :3 but that's a mechanic problem, and I'm not a mechanic

[DaystarNemesis]

Your cat's name is Doink? How cute!

How much involvement do you have? Do you fill them up like a soda machine, or just sort of watch it and package?

[Kitalpha Hart]

She lives up to her name

Look up videos of blow molders and you'll get an idea of what I do

[Lemon Cheesecake]

That boggles my mind.
It seems like it would also be very noisy?

[Kitalpha Hart]

Hearing protection is required out on the floor

[DaystarNemesis]

It's absolutely fascinating.

[Kitalpha Hart]

*screams into a pillow*
Work was a ball of STRESS today

[Lemon Cheesecake]

oh no!!!!

An April Fool's day thing?

Hopefully today is better!

[WingsofLove]

Happy almost spring! Woo and happy almost Easter too

[Kitalpha Hart]

Sadly, nothing to do with the day. The one printer was being a pain, it was also annoying the shit out of the supervisors
