  • Sometimes for maintenance, sometimes because manual intervention was necessary. The machines where we did this were built in the 90s and have been in near constant operation. Moving parts are worn out and the tolerances are gone. Replacement parts are difficult to find and expensive to manufacture, so if something more complex than a ball bearing or axle got out of alignment, we had to pound it back into place (sometimes literally).

    I personally never bypassed the interlock, I wasn’t paid enough to take on that responsibility. I would just file a downtime notice and call the on-site mechanic when needed. I didn’t give a shit about reduced output.

  • If you want to be really pissed, read up on doctor disgraced former doctor, lifelong charlatan and grifter Andrew Wakefield. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Wakefield

    He abused autistic kids in a medical experiment that was meant to convince both the public and the scientific community that a specific combined vaccine (measles-mumps-rubella, a.k.a MMR) could trigger some kind of bowel disease that causes autism, all so he could peddle his own alternative that is three separate shots.
