We the unwilling, lead by the unqualified, have been doing the unbelievable for so long we now attempt the impossible with little or nothing at all.

What talking about me are you
No sir, the idiots at work. We have the premier group in the world doing what we do and they are trying to ruin what we do. I've been visited by folks from South Africa, New Zealand, France, Spain and all across the USA to learn what and how we are doing what we do so they can try to duplicate our group with their company's. When someone sets up a group like ours they are told to try and follow our example as close as possible. We are members of an industry group that writes procedures based on our work and shares with other member organizations. All these groups know what we do but our upper management has no clue what we do but they think they know how to improve us. All the others in our industry thinks our management has been smoking some wacky tobacco or worse for what they are doing to us.
We have given them our thoughts on ways to do what they think they want from our group. We have been told our input is not in line with their ideas. Our only hope to keep our quality of service at its current level is if our Senior VP or some of some of our bigger customers get wind of what is going on.

Mate, I feel for you. I worked as a mechanical fitter in a stainless rolling plant. We were instructed to be open to all questions asked by a party of Indian's that paid $millions for our technology and stayed for 3 months. The next thing we were offered money to leave or move to India, the plant closed and Australia now imports the same product.
Due to regulations we don't have to worry about our jobs going overseas but I've known several friends and a couple of relatives that went thru that so I know a lot of what you went thru.

Funny how management always seems to know more about technical issues than those actually doing the job, we see it here and I have reached the point I give my input if they take note of it all is great if not I don't even worry about it. When it falls apart I just say I am sure I mentioned this before

I kept a diary and after the first time I produced it to make a point they went very quiet and never bothered me again.
lol that may be the way to go
Whenever senior management bring in Indians or Chinese to 'learn' about your successful business, BEWARE!
Many of my relatives went through the exact same process at both the Hoover and Timken Roller Bearing plants in Ohio. Same scenario, teach em what you know ....then within 5 years both plants and thousands of workers where out on the street.....the economic down turn in Canton Ohio and unemployment rate JUMPED to 12.9 percent for a time (nat. average is like 9.2%) it is back down a little to 10% now but still not good, so many smaller businesses "fed" those two large corporations and they just shriveled up in the aftermath.
MANY of my family members worked for years and even retired from Timken or Hoover....sadly or maybe graciously most of them passed before things got so bad. They where proud people proud of the town and the company and the job. It would have really hurt them to see this happen.. Sad. And especially sad when the guy who INVENTED the modern suction vacuum was from Canton Ohio.
--Wikipedia quote-- The first upright vacuum was invented in 1908 by a Canton, Ohio department store janitor and occasional inventor named James Murray Spangler.
Current production is now mostly in China
Hoover (Canton, OH): No longer in Canton, and no longer made in USA. Over the past few years, a growing number of Hoover models had been made in Mexico. In January 2007, Whirlpool sold Hoover to Techtronics Industries (a Hong Kong-based company with factories in Mainland China). Subsequently, the Canton, OH Hoover plant was closed and all machinery auctioned off in November 2007. CRY
