Re: Do you get blamed for every thing one your team!!!

Our coach gave me a $500 fine yestarday because nobody put away this box that had a bunch of things we ordered out on a table. It was empty and the order costed $500. He asked me if i knew where the parts were (He gave the box to me at the begining of our meeting the day before), I was like - ****. 10 minutes later he opens up a cabnet and takes out all the parts, he smiled and said he hoped I wouldnt do it again. I can tell you this right now, im never going to leave anything out again LOL.

Everyone makes mistakes, when I am teaching newbies how to do things I usualy let them figure it out themselves, then check it before they do anything irreversable (drill a hole, or cut something). If they set it up wrong or didnt mark it right then i tell them and they usualy gladly fix it. I dont blame them and say stuff like "You cant do anything right!". I save that for when they have a real bad additude about everything
