My wife's brother spent six years at a Japanese car plant in Kentucky. He was sent to teach the Americans our way of working.
He came home with a notebook. On the cover, in Japanese: "Things I Learned Instead."
Some pages:
"The first day of deer season, half the line takes vacation. HR plans for it every year. Nobody pretends to be sick. They just say 'deer season.'"
"They name the machines. The welding robot on Line 2 is Darlene. Darlene gets a birthday cake."
"When someone's wife has a baby, the whole line signs a card. The card is bigger than the baby."
"A man with thirty years on the line showed me a better way to do my own job. Then he said, 'Don't tell your boss I told you that, boss.'"
"Every Friday, someone brings doughnuts. Nobody is assigned. Somebody always does."
"They thank the janitor by name. Every day. His name is Curtis."
The last page is from his final day.
In our system, anyone can stop the line, but only for a problem. Stopping it is serious.
"On my last day, the line stopped for one minute. There was no problem. They stopped it to shake my hand."
He says it's the only time in six years he was happy to see the line stop.
Wholesome: Cowboys star WR CeeDee Lamb was HYPED to meet the legendary Undertaker.
Lamb has been a die-hard WWE fan since childhood.
What a special moment captured 🥹❤️
It’s actually crazy how you grow up thinking home-cooked meals every day are just normal, then get older and realise how much time and effort it took your Mom to make that happen and how lucky you were to have that.
49ers defensive coordinator Raheem Morris turned 50 years old Thursday, Sept. 3. It also happened to be the day the 49ers flew to Australia, leaving Wednesday night Sept. 2 and arriving Friday morning Sept. 4, local time. The 49ers lost a day, but Morris lost his 50th birthday.
𝗧𝗥𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗜𝗡𝗚: A guy has gone viral for being forced to play a full round of golf without a ball with complete strangers as punishment for losing his fantasy football league.
One of the greatest punishments we've ever seen.
😭😭😭
When are we going to see fines issued to the @PhoenixMercury for posting that disgusting image….
Also, leaving Caitlin Clark off their @WNBA 30 year poster tells us all we need to know…
Honestly, Caitlin Clark @CaitlinClark22 should leave the WNBA and send them into distinction where they belong….
They truly don’t deserve her talent!!!!
WNBA is pure TRASH 💯
Call it what it is, a bunch of jealous racist ghetto black lesbians that hate the fact that a straight white superstar is better than all of them and gets the attention over them….and the WNBA league condones this kind of behavior when it comes to Caitlin Clark on the receiving end….
They figure giving Alyssa Thomas a one game suspension will satisfy the situation when it’s not even close to addressing the real problem. And, the only reason they did this was because they were in fear of all the backlash they are getting. Why should the Refs be put on notice when they know the league supports what they are doing to Caitlin Clark….
Disgusting!!!!
