borrowed
The cuts in MTE tell me three things. Tireman has no stinking idea how manufacturing works. His last gig there was probably 1990s at ICI. the company is going to be broken up into many pieces and wants to be so bare bones that someone might acquire... — read more

Weird Prioroties
Interviewed in 2018 for a position up at the center. Went well. Wrapped up and asked about timing for followups. I sh*t you not, the interviewer looked at me and said “Well, I’ll be honest. You’re clearly a male and you’re clearly white. It’s going... — read more

I quit, I can't take it anymore

The 3M Story: the final chapter begins
It's sad and stunning to see what happened to this great American enterprise in the 21st century. The best part of the book was written in the 20th century, before greed, arrogance, incompetence, and fl-tulence impaled the company, delivering mortal... — read more

Former post, “Zoe … maybe time for you to go away quietly” HAS BEEN COMPROMISED
Many comments deleted from the original thread, including mine, and it appears when you try to submit new comments they do not load or update. Leadership has pretty thin skin. Not sure why they would want to delete a post with a statement that says... — read more
