Lillie has decided to launch an investigation into why a prototype didn't work as expected.

A prototype.



One investigation finding is that she's an asshole.

I don't expect to make it through the week, LMNO.  I can't keep a straight face.

[LMNO]

You already know this, but if you're going to go out, do it with style.

She doesn't understand the product/market lifecycle? How does she deal with the board or heads, I cant imagine the would take kindly to waste like that.

Can't be too crazy.  The company I'm going to does business with them.

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

However, the book I've been reading (Hitler's War; The War That Came Early, Harry Turtledove, page 354):

"Staff Sergeant Alistair decided he'd said enough, and leaned back sucking on one of Nigel's fags."

Oh my.

What the hell are your fags doing with the time machine again? you said you would keep them in line after the last incident.

I try, but they're a frisky bunch.

I'm almost sad you aren't sticking around, just for the tales of awful spiraling into disaster.

On the other hand, get the fuck out of there before it explodes.

Oh my.

I thought we talked about this.

There's only so much a girl can do.

Investigation so far:  The spiral-wound gasket disintegrated in the system, spewing 304 SS fragments down the system.

I went to the plant standard, and looked up the gasket standard (as my guys had).  The gasket of choice for that application according to the powers that be is a spiral wound gasket.

Lillie is not interested.  A shipment is late because of this, and she thinks that crucifying a technician will save her.  It won't, and I won't be involved in helping.

[Junkenstein]

It would seem that lillie is finally going to meet with consequences.

This would be amusing if you were there long enough to report it. I'd guess some poor bastard needs to stay/can't leave and can relay appropriate details as they occur.

She has no idea that she's making herself unemployable, does she?

Here I stand, fascinated.  But it's like going to a circus held in a 55 gallon drum full of human shit.  No matter how funny it is, you don't want to wait around for the grand finale.

[Cain]

Goddamn I hate adjusting to normal sleep time.

[Doktor Howl]

I have officially been told not to properly troubleshoot things, because "you might not be right - right away - and that wastes time", and my new officially-mandated procedure is "do whatever the non-technical people guess during the staff meeting."



I am SOOOOO okay with this.

[Cain]

URGH THIS FUCKING PLACE

Apparently asking the cleaners if they cleaned a room where something went missing, is racist.  I just had a very angry email from the head of the cleaning crew, making all sort of wild accusations, that I "immediately" suspected the cleaners etc etc...a whole bunch of bullshit.  Basically, the two other members of staff on duty that day said they knew nothing about it.  The other kid in the cluster of flats knew nothing about it.  Hmm, who to ask next? 

I've just written a very nasty email in reply, and then essentially told him to take all future complaints to my boss, as I give no fucks.  I'm going to sleep on it before sending, but I'm 90% likely to send it.
