[QUOTE="soberups, post: 775738, member: 14668"] The first step to [B]properly[/B] using a tool...[I]is knowing when you need to use a different one.[/I] If you want someone to [B]properly[/B] use a hammer, they need to know that it was meant for nails and not screws. In todays UPS, the center manager has nothing [I]but [/I]a hammer, so he keeps swinging it and swinging it in order to force the screws into the wood and meet the SPC metric that is being demanded by Corporate. The screws are going into the wood all right....but they are getting bent and the wood is getting splintered and chewed up and the whole thing is falling apart. And the center manager has no choice but to keep swinging that hammer. The center manager isnt stupid. He knows he needs a screwdriver....but if he puts the hammer down he will just get fired and replaced by someone who will swing the hammer faster. So the hammer keep swinging, and everybody scratches their heads and wonders why the screws are so messed up. [/QUOTE]
