当你为一家市值10亿美元的公司工作时，你工作的工具是这样的

FancyTickleNips
I worked at a very well known glass company for all of 6 days before they handed me a hard hat that had a massive crack in it. When I asked a coworker if I could get a new one, he showed me his which also had a crack in it.
 
我在一家非常有名的玻璃公司工作了6天，然后他们递给我一顶安全帽，上面有一个很大的裂缝。当我问同事我是否可以买一个新的，他给我看了他的一个也有裂缝。

In USA you could tell OSHA about that. They LIVE for that kind of stuff. They fine companies to support their jobs
 
在美国，你可以告诉职业安全与健康管理局。他们就是为这种事情而生的。他们会对支持他们工作的公司处以罚款
 
FancyTickleNips
I definitely could have, but I was young and I didn't think about it.
 
我当然可以这么做，但我当时还年轻，没想过这样做。

How much would you bet they made a serious financial commitment to adhere to OSHA standards in the years, months or days since you’ve worked there?
Also, does OSHA have a statute of limitations? Genuinely curious if they’d look at current safety practices at a company you quit a half decade or two ago.
 
你敢打赌，自从你在那里工作后，他们会为遵守职业安全与卫生标准做出多少严肃的财务承诺吗？
还有，职业安全与健康管理局有诉讼时效吗？我真的很好奇他们是否会查看你在五年前或二十年前辞职的公司目前的安全措施。

How much would you bet they made a serious financial commitment to adhere to OSHA standards in the years, months or days since you’ve worked there?
Depends if they have an EHS program and EHS manager who gives a shit. I've done EHS work in steel mills & foundries where I didn't understand how people weren't dying or going home sick every day and other companies where every abnormal breath you took needed to be documented in their incident notification system.
Also, does OSHA have a statute of limitations? Genuinely curious if they’d look at current safety practices at a company you quit a half decade or two ago
Six months from the date of any violation. I doubt the state OSHA department would even bother sending an email to the plant, and fed OSHA would do even less than that.
 
你敢打赌，自从你在那里工作后，他们会为遵守遵守职业安全与卫生标准做出多少严肃的财务承诺吗？
这取决于他们是否有EHS程序和EHS经理。我在钢铁厂和铸造厂做过EHS工作，在那里我不明白为什么没有每天死亡或生病回家的员工，还有其他公司，在这些公司你的每一次呼吸异常都需要记录在事故通知系统中。
还有，职业安全与健康管理局有诉讼时效吗？我真的很好奇他们是否会查看你在五年前或二十年前辞职的公司目前的安全措施
违规行为发生之日起六个月。我怀疑州职业安全与健康管理局会不会给工厂发邮件，而联邦职业安全与健康管理局会做的甚至更少。
 
LazaroFilm
That would be a quick phone call to OSHA.
 
给职业安全与健康管理局打个电话就行了。

My first job right out of highschool was ironworking. I went from that, to the glass company, then to FedEx, then to working on my own.
 
我高中毕业后的第一份工作是制铁。我从那开始，去了玻璃公司，然后去了联邦快递，然后自己创业。

I’m INSANELY interested in wood working but have never had the time or money to get deep into it. No real place to set up a shop. Would love to work in that field but I’m also very in love with healthcare. Can you reccomend to me any way that I can get more involved with wood working that wouldn’t break the bank?
 
我对木工非常感兴趣，但从来没有时间和金钱去深入研究它。我没有开店的地方。我很想在这个领域工作，但我也非常喜欢医疗保健。你能给我推荐一种既能让我在木工方面投入更多，又不会花光所有钱的方法吗?
 
FancyTickleNips
I work in my rather cluttered garage, and out in the backyard so if space is something you're worried about, I barely have any myself!
My best advice is to invest in some tools (other than the obvious tape measure) like a drill, a sander, and a saw. Those three things in themselves are going to shave a bunch of time off production, and they don't have to be expensive! I personally use Ryobi, I think an entire set of tools (including a drill, an impact gun, a nail gun, a circular saw, and a sander +bits and blades) was $135 which I understand can be steep for people, but there are cheaper tool options than that even!
I'm not the best at giving advice, so please if you have any other questions feel free to be as specific as you'd like, and even message me!
 
我在我杂乱的车库工作，在我家后院，所以如果你担心空间不够，事实上我自己几乎也没有空间！
我最好的建议是买一些工具(除了卷尺)，像钻头、砂光机和锯子等。这三样东西本身就可以节省大量的生产时间，而且它们并不昂贵！我个人使用Ryobi，我认为是一整套工具(包括钻头、冲击枪、钉枪、圆锯、砂光机+钻头和刀片) 是135美元，我知道这对人们来说有点贵，但还是有比这更便宜的工具可供选择！
我不是最擅长给建议的人，所以如果你有任何其他问题，请随意提出，甚至可以给我发信息！

I've always had to buy my own PPE. I like it that way. I can get new stuff the that fits.
 
我总是得自己买防护装备，我喜欢这样，这样我可以买到合适自己的新衣服。
 
FancyTickleNips
I had all my own PPE from when I was an ironworker, but sadly they wouldn't let me bring in my own hard hat cause it had some "inappropriate" stickers on it.
 
当我还是一个钢铁工人的时候，我有自己的防护装备，但遗憾的是，他们不让我带自己的安全帽，因为上面有一些“不合适的”贴纸。

I worked at (large chain) for a summer. There was a manager who actually went to the hospital because he hurt himself using one of the busted pallet jacks. They kept the jack in service. There was also a ladder so busted someone had written "OSHA" on it with permanent marker. Still in service.
 
我在大的零售连锁店工作过一个夏天。有个经理去了医院，因为他用一个坏掉的托盘千斤顶，最后把自己弄伤了，而他们让这个千斤顶继续工作。还有一个梯子，也坏掉了，有人用记号笔在上面写了“职业安全与健康管理局”。
 
code_on
so this is a place were hard hats getting cracked is common
 
所以在这个地方，安全帽被打碎是很常见的
 
FancyTickleNips
Or at the very least, they're just really good at recycling ppe
 
至少是这样，他们只是很擅长回收防护用品
 
jpcarroll44
sounds like the company I worked for where I brought my own gear for the first 6 months
 
听起来很像我工作的那家公司，前六个月我都是自己带装备的
 
SneakyZohan
With no cracks in your hardhat i presume
 
我猜你的安全帽上没有裂缝吧
 
FancyTickleNips
I don't even wear one now, lol. I do mostly smaller items that don't require a forklift or a crane so I can get away with not wearing one. Safety glasses and masks on the other hand, I make sure those are tip top.
 
我现在都不戴了，哈哈。我做的大多是不需要铲车或起重机的小物件，所以我可以不戴安全帽，只需要戴安全眼镜和口罩，另一方面，我会确保这些装备是最好的。
 
DIOnys02
Why do you care? You get payed and if they give you this, then it’s not your problem
 
为什么你关心这个问题？你拿了钱，如果他们给你这个，那就不是你的问题
 
FancyTickleNips
Because a cracked hard hat is nowhere near the same as an old shitty broom my friend.
 
因为一顶破安全帽和一把破扫帚根本就不一样，我的朋友。
 
DIOnys02
Yeah, because you don’t need the hat to do your work. Also if you'd get hurt, you can get a lot of money out of this if you documented the shitty equipment
 
是啊，因为你不需要帽子来工作。而且如果你受伤了，如果你记录下这些糟糕的设备，你可以从中得到很多钱
 
FancyTickleNips
I'm not talking down to you at all, but have you never worked in a warehouse with overhead cranes and plenty of heavy equipment/ glass that towers over you? You need a hard hat to do the work.
 
我不是在居高临下地对你说话，但是你有没有在一个有高架起重机和大量重型设备/玻璃的仓库里工作过？你需要有安全帽才能做这项工作。
 
MaximumEffort433
At the risk of sounding dumb, have you tried talking to your on-site manager about that? Usually shit like that, materials, supplies, whatnot, come down to whether or not your store/shop/facility's managers take the time to do boring stuff like expense out new brooms.
Seriously, I know the larger problem that you're getting at, billion dollar companies not taking care of their employees, but in this specific case, the solution might be pretty easy!
Talk to your boss, explain that having half a broom means you're doing twice the work, they'll get the point.
 
虽然听起来很傻，你有没有试着和你的现场经理谈谈？通常像材料，供应，诸如此类的事情，都取决于你的仓储/商店/设备经理是否会花时间去做一些无聊的事情，比如花钱买新的扫帚。
说真的，我知道你说的更大的问题是，价值数十亿美元的公司不关心他们的员工，但在这种情况下，解决办法可能非常简单！
跟你的老板谈谈，解释一下有半把扫帚意味着你要做两倍的工作，他们会明白的。

As someone who also works for a billion dollar company, if I were to tell my supervisor that we needed new brooms, he would say "yeah we do" at that would be the end of it. Most upper and middle management do not care about something like this. They have other things to worry about. At the warehouse, we have ~40 employees and only 4 scanners and 7 forklifts. 95% of the employees that work in the warehouse do absolutely nothing and when they get asked to do something they say "I don't have a forklift/scanner" and the supervisor moves on to the next employee to get the job done. That being said, 5% of the workers do 95% of the work. And the company doesn't care, because they have bigger things to worry about. It sucks... But that's how it is
 
作为一个为数十亿美元公司工作的人，如果我告诉我的上司我们需要新扫帚，他会说"是的，我们会处理的"然后事情就结束了。大多数高层和中层管理人员并不关心这样的事情。他们还有别的事要考虑。在仓库，我们有40名员工，只有4台扫描仪和7台叉车。95%在仓库工作的员工什么都不做，当他们被要求做某些事时，他们会说“我没有叉车/扫描仪”，然后主管会转移到下一个员工让他去完成这项工作。也就是说，5%的工人做了95%的工作。而公司并不在意，因为他们有更重要的事情要考虑。这很糟糕……但事实就是这样

That’s a shitty manager. Our job in management is to fix your problems so you can produce. Anyone who doesn’t understand that shouldn’t be managing teams.
 
那是个糟糕的经理。我们的管理工作是解决你们的问题，这样你们才能生产。
不明白这一点的人不应该去管理团队。
 
jle909
I agree. But all they care about is production because production makes the money.
 
我同意。但他们只关心生产，因为生产能赚钱。
 
Qaplwsok1
You’re not wrong. I care about getting the job done. But I also understand that people get the job done and if you don’t take care of people they won’t produce. I won’t pretend I don’t view most of my people as human capital, but that doesn’t change the fact that I need to take care of them.
 
你没有错。我关心的是完成任务。但我也明白，人们能完成工作，如果你不照顾关心员工，他们就不会有成果。我不会假装不把我的大多数员工视为人力资本，但这不能改变我需要照顾他们的事实。
 
BeurreBlanc
Exactly yes, thank you. Im a supervisor and i care about my team on a personal level but i also need to care about their productive output.
 
完全正确，谢谢。我是一个主管，我在个人层面上关心我的团队，但我也需要关心他们的产出。
 
Qaplwsok1
You need to talk to your manager in terms he understands. “These brooms are doubling the amount of time it takes to perform this task and taking away from my available time to perform more important duties.”
 
你需要用他能理解的方式和他说话。“这把扫帚让我完成这些任务所需的时间增加了一倍，占用了我很多可用的时间去做更重要的事情。”
 
LittleKingSlice
I think you missed the point of what they were saying. A good manager knows that a team will be most productive when their needs are taken care of. So by taking care of your team, you effectively maximize your profit due to increased productivity.
Your manager might only care about profit, but by ignoring the needs of the team is leaving profit on the table in terms of missed productivity.
 
我觉得你没抓住他们说的重点。一个好的管理者知道，当团队的需求得到满足时，他们的工作效率才是最高的。因此，通过照顾你的团队，你有效地最大化了你的利润，因为你提高了生产力。
你的经理可能只关心利润，而忽视团队的需求，只是注重利润，从而导致生产力下降。

...And then you woke up and had a good laugh?
 
……然后你醒来，开怀大笑？
 
Qaplwsok1
No, usually I wake up and begin solving problems for my team. And if they don’t have problems I work to improve their situation or advocate for them to senior leadership. Because I know how to do my job.
 
不，通常我会醒来然后开始为我的团队解决问题。如果他们没有问题，我就努力改善他们的工作环境，或为他们向高层领导提出更好的建议，因为我知道怎么做好我的工作。

95% of the employees that work in the warehouse do absolutely nothing
They hiring?
 
在仓库工作的95%的员工什么都不做
他们还招聘吗？

I worked facilities for a company that was bought for 35 billion. Our department manager was a great guy, but if you said he went to each storage closet and checked on the condition of equipment or checked if we had enough cleaner, I'd tell you you're crazy b/c he had more important things to do in a day.
However, if you went up to him and said we needed new brooms or we were low on a cleaner, he'd throw you the huge Grainger book and tell you to order whatever one you wanted and to tell our admin that he'll sign off on the PO.
 
我为一家被350亿美元收购的公司工作。我们的部门经理是个好人，但如果你说让他去每个储藏室检查设备的状况或者检查我们是否有足够的清洁剂，我会告诉你，你一定是疯了，因为他一天内有更重要的事要做。
但是，如果你走到他跟前说我们需要新扫帚或者我们没清洁剂了，他会把那本大的手册扔给你，让你想要什么就订什么，然后告诉我们的管理员他会在订购单上签字。
 
Crumb-Free
I shouldn't have to explain to my boss we have faulty equipment given by the company. There should be inspections well before this occurs.
If you're a high - profit- company. Well that explains that.
 
我不应该向老板解释我们公司提供的设备有问题。在这种情况发生之前就应该进行检查。
如果你的公司是一个高利润的公司，这就解释了这一点
 
MarthaMatildaOToole
You're the employee. Inspect your tools and let your manager know the status. Do you expect them to hire someone else to inspect your broom?
 
你们是员工，检查你使用的工具，并让你的经理知道工具的状态。你难道希望他们雇人来检查你的扫帚吗?
 
MaximumEffort433
I shouldn't have to explain to my boss we have faulty equipment given by the company.
I totally agree, you shouldn't have to do that, nevertheless you, well, you might have to do that if you want a new broom. Unfortunately bosses are humans, so they forget things, and even when they don't forget, "Check length of broom bristles" is a fairly low priority on the totem pole.
The fastest way to get a new broom is to ask for one.
 
我不应该向老板解释我们公司提供的设备有问题。
我完全同意，你不应该这么做，不过，如果你想换把新扫帚的话，你可能得这么做。不幸的是，老板也是人，所以他们会忘记一些事情，即使他们没有忘记，“检查扫把毛的长度”在老板的心里也是相当低的优先级。
要得到一把新扫帚，最快的方法就是自己要一把。

In my shop, we often have to cut metals and the only thing we have to do it is an oxy torch. If youve ever cut with an oxy torch, you know its a pretty messy, nasty process. I went looking around and theres a plasma cutter on the floor thats been red tagged. Its been there since I started several years ago and just overlooked it because it never got used. I asked my boss about getting a new one and his question was "whats wrong with the old one?". Well I didnt know exactly, so I went asking around to figure it and the general consensus is this thing HASNT WORKED FOR LIKE 10 YEARS at least.
I still doubt were getting a new one, but youd be surprised at what management has no idea about.
 
在我的店里，我们经常要切割金属，我们唯一要做的就是用氧炬切割。如果你曾经用过氧炬切割，你就会知道这是一个相当混乱、肮脏的过程。我四处看了看，发现地板上有个红色的等离子切割器。它从我几年前工作开始就在那里了，只是因为从未被使用过而忽略了它。我要求我的老板买个新的，他的问题是“旧的有什么问题吗?”好吧，我不知道原来的设备确切的情况，所以我去询问了周围的人，普遍的共识是，这东西至少10年没有工作了。
 
moesickle
Yes you should especially since managers/bosses owners delegate tasks to others. It your job to be proactive and make sure you make your needs be known and it's likely written in the employee handbook or contract to report to management if you need sufficient equipment to complete your job.
And specifically to this post, this broom just needs those loose bristles cut off.
 
是的，你应该这么做，尤其是当经理/老板把任务分配给别人的时候。积极主动是你的工作，确保你的需求被了解，如果你需要足够的设备来完成工作，你可以写在员工手册或合同上向管理层报告。
具体来说，这把扫帚只需要把那些松散的刷毛剪掉就可以使用了。
 
Guac__is__extra__
I would be critical of a manager that works for me if they spent their time inspecting brooms. However, clear lines of communication should be in place and employees should know that all they need to do is inform their supervisor that they need a new broom in order to get one.
 
如果一个为我工作的经理花时间检查扫帚，我会批评他。
然而，公司应该有明确的沟通渠道，员工应该知道，为了得到一把新扫帚，他们需要做的就是通知主管，他们需要一把新扫帚。
 
kingjoey52a
Part of your job usually involves inspecting the equipment you use. If I have a monitor with a giant crack in it I need to tell someone about the broken monitor. If your job involves sweeping floors you need to tell someone if your broom is worn out. No one is going to hire someone just to inspect all the equipment from heavy machinery down to brooms.
 
你工作的一部分通常包括检查你使用的设备。如果我的显示器上有一条大裂缝，我需要告诉别人显示器坏了。如果你的工作需要扫地，你需要告诉别人你的扫帚是不是坏了。没有人会雇佣一个人来检查所有的设备，从重型机械到扫帚。

I worked at a high profile movie theater and all of our brooms liked this.
Couldn't understand why. Then I saw it.... EVERY CREWMEMBER stuffing the trash down with the brooms. I told them not to do it. I told the managers why our brroms needed replacing so often.
They shrugged. Everyone shrugged. I stopped caring too.
 
我在一家著名的电影院工作，我们所有的扫帚都像这样的
刚开始不明白为什么。后来我看到了....每个员工都用扫帚把垃圾塞进去。我告诉经理们为什么我们的扫帚需要频繁更换。他们只是耸耸肩。每个人耸了耸肩，所以我也不再关心了。

Dude just take scissors and cut the frayed edges off?? That broom will still do the job regardless.
 
伙计，拿把剪刀把磨损的边剪掉？？不管怎样，那把扫帚还是可以用的。

They're a billion dollar company for a reason, and it's not because of quality employee care or tool maintenance
 
他们之所以能成为市值10亿美元的公司是有原因的，这并不是因为高质量的员工护理或工具维护

Just tell them you sweeped and when they say “it doesn’t look like it” show them the broom.
 
告诉他们你扫过了，当他们说"看起来不像扫过"时，给他们看扫帚。

I worked for a huuuge restaurant corporation and used to bring my own dish washing liquid to clean nasty "washed" dishes which had food residue all over.
 
我在一家很大的餐饮公司工作，过去常常自带洗碗液来清洗盘子，因为盘子上面到处都是食物残渣。

I work at a health care company that makes 40 million a year that wouldn’t buy new thermometers and masks in the middle of a pandemic. We got one new thermometer had to bring our own masks.
 
我在一家每年产值4000万的医疗保健公司工作，在流感大流行期间，他们不会购买新的温度计和口罩。我们自己买了一个新的温度计，还得自己带口罩。
 
Senior-Albatross
That's because billion dollar companies get that way by being penny pinching hoarders that spend an inordinate amount of energy cutting every single possible corner they can conceive of in order to make that magic number as high as possible.
Well as high as possible to the owners and the shareholders, who bully everyone beneath them leading to crap like this.
 
这是因为十亿美元规模的公司之所以会成为这样的公司，是因为它们是一个精打细算的公司，为了让这个神奇的数字尽可能高，它们花费了大量的精力来削减他们能想到的每一个角落的成本。
对所有者和股东来说越高越好，因为他们欺负他们下面的人导致了这样的事情发生。
 
bazilbt
Often that's on the people doing the ordering. But really you can trim all the shitty bristles off the Broom and still have a pretty good Broom. There is plenty there that is perfectly usable.
 
这通常取决于能够做决定的人。但是你真的可以剪掉扫帚上所有的脏毛，这仍然是一个好用的扫帚。有很多是完全可以用的。
 
Redditerorist
You don’t become a billion dollar company with actually taking care of those things! That’s potential profit but no the employees want it for “tools” to do their job better.
 
如果你只关心这些事情，你的公司就不会成为一家市值十亿美元的公司！这是潜在的利润，但不是员工想要的“工具”，以更好地完成他们的工作。

I used to work in the food industry, we need special brooms to clean the floor, because of the ISO 1400? I don't really remember. They were very expensive, like 50 USD each and you should change them kinda often, like every 3 weeks, we need like 10 brooms in total.
 
我以前在食品行业工作，我们需要专门的扫帚来清洁地板，这是ISO 1400标准里要求的吗？我不记得了。那把扫帚很贵，每把50美元，而且需要经常换，每三周换一次，我们总共需要10把扫帚。
 
slydon75
Business owner here I’m willing to bet you haven’t told a single person that you need a new broom, you’ve just expected those above you to read your mind and randomly send you a new one. Stop being lazy and tell those in charge what you need to do your job properly, they aren’t paid to keep track of the condition of your broom.
 
我敢打赌，你没有告诉任何人你需要一把新扫帚，你只是期望你上面的人会读懂你的心思，然后随机送你一把新扫帚。别再偷懒了，告诉管事的人你需要把什么做好，他们拿薪水可不是帮你管扫帚的。

Reminds me of my old job.
We had pretty good equipment the first year I worked there, then as upper management got more greedy and frugal we started getting really lousy equipment that was hardly ever replaced.
 
让我想起我以前的工作。
我在那里工作的第一年，我们有非常好的设备，然后随着高层管理变得越来越贪婪和节俭，我们开始得到非常糟糕的设备，几乎没有更换过。
