No Good Deed Goes Unpunished.
No Good Deed Goes Unpunished.

As an automotive supplier, the sleazy company that I work for gets to jump through quite a few hoops thanks to the even sleazier Automobile Manufacturers.

Since they now make like zero parts of their own, essentially when you buy a car, ANY car, you are getting something assembled from "Lego Blocks" purchased from suppliers who pay about 30% of what UAW workers at the Big Three were making. This makes for shitty parts made by workers who could care less.

Hence, the Big Three require ever-increasing levels of paper chase, designed to make an inherently defective product, perfect.

Anyway, a NEW AND IMPROVED form of audit was mandated by Daimler Chrysler last week, to be trained and implemented by the end of the month. This is typical of them, but this time the company was sending only one guy; the least likely candidate for such training.

I, vocally against my better judgement, VOLUNTEERED to go and help this guy. The finally said OK last Friday. THIS MORNING, my Neo-rePuke boss came up to me and sneered:

"Well, you got your WISH; you sure WHINED enough about it. "

So now, I'm on his "Shit List" for volunteering for an odious task, outside of my area of responsibility, just to help out.

GAWD I hate Neocons almost as much as Mondays.
