TOAK, The Thread of All Knowledge part XIV.
Lol...."life". As a Midwesterner working for a Boston based firm, and dealing with New Yorkers now living in Florida, I found their "life" contributions to be unsettling. I'll confine my criticisms to those individuals as I have many east coast friends. But damn, they were hard to work with! Obnoxious, foul mouthed, and mean spirited! If I had to give them a compliment it was that they didn't just stab you in the back, but front, sides, top, and bottom!

Ah, southern hospitality at its finest
Well I'm originally from Boston so there's that.
And I did say snowturds, Canadians are next on the list, they like to drive 20 MPH under the speed limit on all roads.
My home state turds aren't any better these are to only ones in my 8 years of living are the ones that toss trash out the windows of cars.
Don't even get me started on the morons wearing mask driving convertibles... with the MF'ING top down. I'll definitely get video of that this snowturd season.

When I was still werking our corporate offices were in Connecticut. They really had no idea on how manufacturing works! Being in the mid-west, auto country, we had many suppliers available to us that had good products and good prices. Corporate insisted we use their east coast suppliers who took several days to quote, very light or no inventory, excessive shipping costs, and higher prices than what I could get locally. Often times corporate had "deals" set up with those suppliers who provided an annual check back to the corporate offices. I had many arguments with my "bosses" out east why I bought locally and proved I saved time and money!! Best one was when a production machine went down and I got parts locally to get production back up and running in a day or so. Boss called and reamed me a new one! I told him fine, next time a machine goes down, I will use your source and let management here know why production was down and that it was due to restrictions from you, my "boss". He did not like it and was really pissed next time production went down and we were out for over a week!! Told the big wigs out east I could have gotten parts and production up and running in a couple days if my boss had not directed me to use his sources. Boy I felt good for that one!!!
