[QUOTE="BrownArmy, post: 777540, member: 18225"] No doubt. I entirely agree. I'm not sure a single person has ever been fired for failing to recite the 5 & 10's etc. verbatim. Even with the Keter guys, if you are pretty close to the intent of the bla bla blah's (mix them up, out of order, not verbatim but close to the point of the whatever you are trying to verbalize), it's not a problem. Hell, it's not a problem if you can't recite %%%! You certainly won't get fired for it! That wasn't my point. Management can and will threaten us with discipline or termination for each and every small thing under the sun, most of which is %%%%. My point was that in this job that we have, which we work very hard at, from time to time we may be asked to perform certain duties. Some of which may seem so ridiculous and absurd that it will make our heads shake with wonder and disgust. Nevertheless, we must work as directed. Which is why I say, beat them at their own silly games. The 5 & 10's are actually good advice. Know them cold and don't give your management team (if they're the sort to pull the trigger on these types of things) a leg to stand on. It's so goofy, but if they told us to spin around three times on one leg before entering the package car, that is certainly their right as our employers. Is it dumb as hell? Absolutely. [/QUOTE]
