I'm an imposter in SH/SC, I work in food manufacturing management. My specialty is training machine operators and building crews to expand production. I've worked in frozen pancakes & shelf stable waffles, retail and food service coffee roasting and grinding, a liquor bottling joint, and now I'm at a pie factory.

My primary function now is running the cookie line, which is a series of machines that crank out 1700 lbs of cookies an hour, every one of which immediately goes into a grinder to be converted into crumbs for shipping across the factory to the other side where they use it to make the crumb crusts for various creme pies you've seen in your local grocery store.

could you save one of these 'doomed to be crushed' cookies and give it to me?

Entirely uneducated guess, but I'd assume it crumbs better when there's more surface area, as well as cooking faster because the edges increase the surface area of the cookie. I'd even go as far as guessing it decreases quality control waste since you can sample 15 cookies from a tray and still have 30 left instead of needing to sacrifice an entire tray sized cookie.

Yeah they're making cookies, not brownies. A long sheet will just take longer to bake and cool and that's just time being wasted

I want cookies now but making them myself takes too long and makes too many

Also he said the mixer could handle 1700lb batches of dough, if you wanted a continuous sheet being processed at 7200lbs an hour you'd need five mixers (well, 4.something) synchronised to dump their dough onto a continuous belt.

Continuous sheet would cook unevenly primarily by obstructing airflow in the oven. Also it wouldn't fit in the grinder.

Single mixer would keep up, we have accumulation capability, they start mixing half an hour before the oven fires up, and it's 1700/ with a 6 minute cycle time.

45 minute call with a beligerent older student who claimed that she had never received an e-mail address nor any information regarding where/when her classes were being held. Insisted I stay on the line while she narrated everything on her screen, put ME on hold twice, and was unable to give any information on the errors she encountered after I tried to walk her through the entire new-student process. Confirmed things worked on my end, and eventually she accepted that Id text further instructions (our tutorial pdf which I had provided but she insisted was of no use because she cant possibly read it while on the phone. An iPhone of course, so my familiarity was minimal.)

Pooled my lunch break and one of my 15 minute ones for a nice walk around campus with coworker buddy after that one. Prob my first "bad" call so far Id say? Any others were fixable speedbumps.

Mobile readability for documentation is a real issue, especially for items for road warriors like vpn. Funny as it sounds, you might want to print the tutorial pdf in pamphlet sized paper and keep a few copies stocked for cases where they cannot (or won't) read it on their mobile screen.

I think, because it got misclassified, there are some update configurations that will automatically apply it.

It's also likely they fixed it already, so any new checks on systems that didn't automatically apply it will see it properly.

But also, lol. 1 click to completely gently caress over your environment is classic MS.

Similarly, I have a button on my laptop that mutes the built-in microphones, but no other microphones that may exist. It's really confusing when I hit it and don't notice because there's no visual indicator that it's been hit. Usually ends up with me being confused at Discord not catching my voice for a while before remembering what's happened and testing the button.

I had a ticket from the most technologically inept user I've ever met in my career in I.T. whose webcam had no picture. I checked what model of Lenovo laptop she was using and described where that switch was, but she insisted it wasn't there. I told her how tiny it was and that she should look again very closely, she said it wasn't there. I took close up pictures of the frame and the switch itself on my own laptop, which was the same model, circled the part in red, and sent them to her. She was still absolutely certain that the switch wasn't there. I was beginning to doubt that she was using the laptop she was issued, but when she brought it into the office the next day, the switch was exactly where it was supposed to be. Even when I pointed to it and moved it back and forth she was confused about it.
