You cheeky boy Hu flung, see we all have our dodges to get the parts out of the door.
This doesn't mean we apply slap dash work habits as a matter of choice, but occasionally when the devil drives, then the book of tricks is consulted and we get a perfect record.
So I feel vindicated that having advocated, I think it was #4 option, "just get it out of the door" means using all your skill to save the boss a bundle when the tight arrsed barstud supplied crap tooling to do the job in the first place.
The type of bloke I despise is the one who comes in on the broom and when the boss wants a cheap job done employs him in preference to a regular skilled worker.
Pretty soon he's working alongside you and trying to pick your brains as well as picking your pocket so to say.
I don't give the time of day to these people, even if they have a family to feed, been too long in the firing line to mince words with dodgers and bodge merchants.
The industry can't survive by having cheap semi skilled labour producing the work.
Eventually the workforce comprises of a cheap " that'll do" type of attitude, and so what incentive for anyone to work for five years at low wages whilst learning if the wages are no better at the end of it.
