Teflon Todd

After an incomplete weld was found on the USS Ohio, Electric Boat called for a critique. In the nuclear shipbuilding world, that means a three hour meeting, pain, suffering, and heads on a platter. You see, we manufactured the piece in question. Fuck. Luckily, in a previous position, one of our Zonies was the one that actually signed off for the piece. Bahahahahahaaha.

It took approximately 20 minutes to gather the paperwork and the critique slid off like wet ice on wet ice. It’s too bad I had to go to the Subcontractor meeting. So I missed all of the moon walking, back peddling, and stabbings.

But that’s not all. At the Subcontractor meeting with Electric Boat, it seems that I was the only sub that had been to Electric Boat Indoctrination. A two day bore fest. It is absolutely mandatory to take this training to be a part of the team.

So, in the space of about two hours, Todd Pacific Shipyard went from the outhouse to the penthouse.
