Tool Room Trilogy

Wait, you gonna sign me out a cutter and (one) cutting disk, then you going to put a lock on the tool room and disappear for a couple hours? Yeah, no problem,, Tightwad Toolman. Gotcha. Wait 5 minutes. Brief grinding noises. What's that? The tool room was left wide open? No one knows where Teddy Toolman is? Don't know what to tell you, Bossman. I'm up here 8 flights up. With all my PPO and safety harnesses and my cutting tool and 10 cutting disks and getting my dam job done. Soons I finish, I'll climb down, bring all my gear and tools and I'll help you look for 'the most important person on this job-site" who has gone and left his post and left all that valuable inventory wide open. Oh, oh, you think maybe Toolroom Teddy needs a break from his inventory issues, and maybe could use a couple days or weeks working as a helper to our older hands? Maybe we start developing a backup for the toolroom position? Well, you ARE the boss man. Sounds like a dam fine idea to me.

[@justinpatterson5291]

The second he said it's 50 bucks. I just thought. That's practically a free tool set right there. I'll hire out a nail gun, circular saw, hammer drill and maybe a couple extras...

Consumables gloves,disk, cutting shields,tips,masks that always broke the company

[@kaitan4160]

Once worked at a Site at Bayer. Someone had the great Idea that all Tool requests need to be given in writing a day in advance. And then that same guy (i assume) had the other great Idea to put the one analphabet in the 300+ crew in the Tool room. It went worse than you could imagine. Boss broke out of the Contract and didnt have to pay a single cent for breaking the Contract. Thats how bad the situation was.

[@georgegroot9704]

I worked on a job in an old high-rise, 16 stories. No elevators(being re cabled), only had power on every fourth floor. And only one stair case built in 1903, narrow and had a landing and turn every 6 steps. I watched, over a week period, 9 iron workers drag a Miller diesel welder up those stairs. I nearly died just dragging my two tool bags up every day, and they only weighed about 60lbs combined.

Every time I go to the tool crib I gotta listen to the same story about how he was a once a contractor in Iraq during the Iraq war or his experience working for Saudi Aramco back in the 70's. Atleast they had a coffee machine down there. The key is getting on his good side so when the project starts winding down and the shortages start you can still get material.

[@steveblevins9018]

You seem to know what every heavy industry goes through and the people who work it. I love when something at work and you deliver a video that I can pass to the other guys.

[@Gormfeld]

lol great video. Reminds me of when I ran the grinder at the meat factory. Had to change the blade 1-2 times on a regular day, 2-3 times on beef days. Every time the blade went dull, you had to take the machine apart, take the blade off and head on down to the "maintenance" room. It's either a ghost-town in there, or there's 6 guys hangin' out, only one of whom would actually get you a new blade. And don't even ask for two blades, because that's "against company policy". Doesn't matter that it's beef day, doesn't matter that you're delaying production by coming down here and dealing with these guys. You're getting one blade, and you're gonna be happy with it.

Having been the shop tool cage attendant I have had these kinds of conversations with the guys. There's some items that you can have as many of as you ask for such as earplugs, and some things you can't have a new one unless you turn in an old one such as grinder disks. I actually had a guy who wanted new welding gloves rip the old ones right in front of me.

[@mattsirmans9146]

The tool pusher in the last shop I worked in would ration EVERYTHING, even earplugs. It was a machine shop and we got 1 insert at a time, if it got chipped he would inspect it and if he thought you could get more out of it you didn't get a new one.

[@txgunguy2766]

@@mattsirmans9146 Earplugs was one thing you could have as many pairs as you wanted, all you had to do was tell me how many you want. Safety glasses and face shields were also available without turning an old one in. Welding tips and cutting torch tips were definitely something you had to exchange an old one for a new one. There was one guy that I was certain he pulled old welding tips out of the trash because every very few days he'd turn in about 20 or so. I didn't care though, I'd let him exchange as many as he'd turn in.

[@dhwrd87]

I was a tool room guy but I was never given rules like this from the company so I didn’t even care. All I had to care about were the calibrated tools. (Multimeters, torque wrenches, dial indicators etc..) consumables, Fuckit. I might bitch a little for making me get up that’s all. “That’s the 5th cutting wheel today wtf are you doing out there? (Here you go take 2 more)” or I’d even give them tips how to help me get them new stuff. “This drill sucks the bushings are worn” but the company doesn’t do anything to repair drills they just replace when destroyed. So drop the drill in a fuel tank and I can buy a new one.
