Hi I work at Seekonk Precision Tools a torque wrench company in Seekonk ma.They have a nice Web page check it out. They have been in business for over seventy five years and I have been working there for thirty of them as the plant foreman.My day is very busy and goes by fast. .I am a tool and cutter grinder also.thats how I got into this company. I started a grinding department for them .I have forty two years of experance with that trade. I have been married 43 years and have two children with four grand kids My mother died this year .I went to get her some medicine for her and when I got back my father had her resting on the floor with an aneurism to her brain.. She went fast and painlessly . My father and her were married 67 years. My father is eighty eight years old and finally retired this last year.I always asked him when he was going to retire and his answer was not till I get old !!!!! He was the foreman of valley throwing co. He had been there over fifty years. I like riding my motorcycle to work everyday .I have been riding motorcycles since I was sixteen. I am driving a 1987 1200 goldwing.right now. I love the cd player on it an love playing my faverate music when I ride. I like going to the gym . I am into spinning classes right now .I go a couple times a week and I feel great after . I have a cat named Rusty and we are best of friends. He loves smellin my vitamins every day. He loves the different smells and he gets excited the more he smells .I get the cap off and his head is there ready to sample each one. The one vitamin he does not like is vitamin C. I like going to work because the company I work for is so awesome. The day to day activity changes every minute.I have had people geting hurt to two employees not getting along with each other. You never know what the day brings its always a surprize. It's funny how you can never keep everyone happy . Some days someone is cold or the next they are too hot and want the air conditioner on.Its not that they are bad people because they are all nice people but you can never please everyone no mater what you do.The main thing I try to do is see their problem and be fair to everyone .Once I had to pull a finger out of a machine and send it to the hospital where they reattached it . The product we sell torque wrenches have improved so much because we spent millions on new machines to have better tolerances. We were able to keep the work force the same and produce more then twice as much product.I am always on the hunt to find a product we buy at a better value. I might have to buy a larger amount to get the discount but the lower price is worth it as long as you buy only as much as you need.You would not want to fill inventory that would take ten years to use on everything. ...Expand for more
