two weeks off. Jan 2, Jan 3

I had so many things planned for my two weeks off, and didn't do any of them. :) It was so awesome. Although it hurts my own bottom line so a few days before going back to work when I needed to switch up my schedule back to night shift and I did do a lot of work on my kind of side online business. I was able to meet up with 2 of the 3 I do credentialing for to get paid up on what I had completed and see if they needed me to check up on anything else. The third person I sent them a few texts to meet up and they said they'd get back to me on Dec 21st, and never did. They actually haven't texted me since and owe me around $200, So I should probably check up with them in the next coming weeks. I had a new person send me a message on Facebook asking if I do credentialing, and I told them I do, but I don't call the companies anymore because of my schedule. I sleep during the normal business hours and waiting up to call someone is not something I'm willing to do from now on. I said if she was still interested in me doing the applications and faxing them in I would. But nothing after. She never got back to me. So I guess that's not something that interested her. Oh well, I don't want to continue to do that on top of everything else I task myself with.

Jan 2

Back to work today. I was asked to come in a day early which I said yes to! Hopefully this shift will see that I'm amazing and will continue to ask me to come in. So I come in, had to get a new suit because the end of our shift on Dec 16th we had to put our suits in a bin to be cleaned outside the fab.

The gowning room was empty coming back in. no suits hanging, was a weird sight to see. Walking into the fab about 1/4 of the computers are locked out and no one knows the passwords because the computers never turn off. Our main system "promise" isn't working on any computers that are logged in. Basically, from 5:40 to 7:10 we are standing around talking because we cannot qual the tools for start up. Even if promise was up the 3 tools needed 9UV, 3tenCore and the SP1 machines, and so far they are not qualed or turned on yet. N2 of my department took a vote to leave the fab and gather in the lunch room until promise came back up. We were there 7:15 to 7:50.

Promise is up, but those 3 machines still are not. Now we are back in the fab waiting on maintenance to turn on the needed machines… All of the needed machines came up b 8:30 and we had 36ash and 52ash handed over for their quals. 52ash passed in the 1st run. 36ash failed 2 times and passed on the 3rd PC run. Then 49ash and 50ash were handed over at 12am and they both passed first run. Then 54ash, 53ash, 11ash, 12ash, and 13ash were handed over at 12:30. As I was doing 11 - 13 the guy on this shift in this bay with the unfortunate nickname of 'Salmon-Man', somehow managed to take down both 54ash and 53ash, back to maintenance at the same time around 1:15. 34sink was handed over at 3 am, 54ash and 53ash are still down and I cannot find the test wafers needed to qual 34sink. They are supposed to be in Bay 11D but have all been used. The guy in 11D said there is another batch in the cage. I walked over to the cage and it is a mess. Nothing was in the place it was suppose to be in, and i wasted enough time looking. So I walked away. Salmon-man said he would look for them when he got back from break...and if he couldn't find them he would either leave it for Day shift or ask someone to look. I think he is going ot leave it for day shift...he seems like a lazy kid. Also the sink is currently blaring an alarm that I cannot turn off because the screen froze so he wouldn't be able to load the test wafers anyway.

The sink did go up on Day 1 shift. They were able to find the needed test wafers. They were also able to start running product again! Yay!

I bring lunch to work ever working day because I don't want to drive somewhere, wait, drive back and eat. That takes all the precious time. Oh , and I don't want to spend money on that. Today I almost didn't bring lunch because the new company was supposedly having a mandatory party with food to celebrate working for the new company. Came into shift to find out the mandatory party has been moved to January 11th. I'm glad I brought food or I would have had to go home and put something together.

On my way to my car after the end of the day the lead on N2 called me over to her car. Well she called Adrianna, but I went over anyway. She thanked me for coming in and I said no problem. I also told her I've been trying to get overtime on N2 for nearly 4 months. She suggested I tell the N2 supervisor. I let her know I've told him 4 times and he has never called me. So she took down my name and number in her phone and said she'd talk to her super and give him a call. Yay! I might get some gorram overtime. Finally! (update: 1/29/16, nope still hasn't called me in for overtime... Maybe the are waiting for my temp status to be employee as well?)
Since today was the first day back to full production we had super small goals . By 9:30pm we had already passed our goal. By 12:30 we passed our goal double, by 4:30 triple.
