Can you believe it is the middle of November?  I am looking forward to the first week in December.  My pregnant daughter-in law walked by as I am typing this.  Three more weeks and we hope to have a new grand daughter.  A new birth always gets your attention.  It helps you keep your feet on the ground and realize the important things in life.  Granddaughters are special to their grandfathers.  This will be our fourth.

Switching gears, this week we look at an important aspect of the production environment - downtime.  Do your people have an urgency to reduce downtime?  Print out this definition and encourage them to reduce their downtime.

PS  Nonwoven Tools has a great computer program for tracking and reporting downtime.
