This is a question "You're doing it wrong"

Chthonic confesses: "Only last year did I discover why the lids of things in tubes have a recessed pointy bit built into them." Tell us about the facepalm moment when you realised you were doing something wrong.

"I work but a forty-hour week, but am expected to account for thirty of those hours in precise intervals of five minutes on demand.
Can I just put this godawful fucking proposal in front of anyone else with a job, please? Would you be able to produce a detailed schedule of what you did between 10:05 and 10:55 yesterday morning and detail what it actually achieved?"

I work a 48-hour week, run a small but not insignificant risk of being boiled, drowned, asphyxiated, poisoned or severely burned 12 hours a day, and my entire workload, test results etc. must be accounted for (including the time spent on the plant making each batch, or washing out the lines) and logged so that our customers know exactly what, when and how their products were made. If you think producing work to clearly-set standards is beneath you, get a job in IT and piss around on b3ta instead of working.
