Nov 16, Nov 17.

Nov 16th

Outta whack from the weekend today at start of shift, 53 was down for preventative maintenance, so since that takes a lot of time it may be down for 2-4 days or longer if it isn't consistently worked on... Might be longer because at the time of making this note it is 8 pm and no one from our maintenance group has even come to look at the progress. Also 34 sink was down, due to a tank not draining in scheduled time 3rd time in 3 days and each time the maintenance man comes, it has drained and filled itself...so they can't figure out the issue. Fun.

There used to be a guy who worked in building 4 and would bring lots over to building 1 (the building my fab is in) and place them in a section called the "E-Fab". Today he was supposed to be transferred to Building 1 and start training in my bay. Around 6:20 we found out he called in. Great way to re-start your first day back in Building 1. If he shows tomorrow instead of learning easy ash, he has to start the day with a qual.

Around 9pm can you guess what happened? 34sink went down for ...you probably guessed it 'tank didn't drain in programmed time'. Followed by 54ash going down for shuttle failure, 28sink in 5A going down for a chem change which happens every 2 days at midnight, its usually down for 3 hours because 3 tanks need to drain, one at a time. And 18sink in 11D going down basically the sinks decided to say "fuck this day" at the some time.
34sink also has chem changes but it goes down at 8am.

New guy didn't show again, today and all the tools were back up. Nothing went down this day however at the end of the end of the day Bay 4A coworker (who is Now going to be called B4aT, since i will have two, "new guy" is now B4aG) said that 3 escope slots were missing. Where they should have been: 1234 should have been on rack 11D, 4321 on 11C2, 6214 on 11c3. Where they were: 1234 was on 11D But it was not in a normal black box, it was in a white box that usually the fabtechs don't use, so most probably didn't even notice it (like Prisoner Zero). 4341 was on 11C3, not in a box at all and 6214 was on 12D which is inside a bay not in the hallway like the other shelves, which people weren't looking for it to be on the wrong shelf... Took me five minutes to find them, all they had been missing between 3-10 hours. I should have gotten a prize :) , but I didn't get anything.
