No need to make a special event. Isn't that what welders think of as soon as the hood goes down EVERYDAY! All day long? I used to enjoy doing odd things just to see how sharp QC was. Usually fairly easy task to get one over on them.

What you said is not good ethics.

You wouldn't last long here.
Too many of those noted tests add up to carelessness and points to a non team player.
Just Saying A welder is supposed to perform their tasks correctly and go to the next task, not see how smart the person holding the clipboard is.

True, I was not always the stellar employee when under the hood. Typical case and point. When you have some know-it all, suddenly became QC God, brand new, unescorted CAWI running around calling the shots and telling you that you HAVE to have 1/8" root penetration minimum on a 4" sch 40 pipe, and then having the foreman make you cut out perfectly good not yet RT'd welds.... It just begs for retaliation.
Respect and professionalism breeds the same.
I know... it was very wrong of me.
I was very immature back then.
I'm all growed up now.

Respectfully,
John

My inspector only looked at the first 50 or so now he just initials the pipe cause he knows it's good

I used to wait for the inspector to start un-folding his little leather “Inspectors Hood” (carried in his shirt pocket) and asking “you want me to start here” and then striking an arc when he looked … :eek:

Now, I be he … So bring it on!! :twisted:

Oh, I also have enough Non-Compliance Reports that would take you a life-time to fix!

Cheers,

Btw,
Are those “inspectors hoods” even available anymore?
I’m tired if dragging around full size hood.
Looks like e-Bay time to me!!

Damn, I’m gettin’ old!!
