29days to go

hey hey! 27days to go! so excited!! wanna eat cha kway tiao, yu yuan mian, hor fun, ba cuo mee, mee siam, roti prata etc etc.... and of course, BAN LI!!!!!!

i've been doing repetitive job for the past one wk, making shadow board after shadow board, bending steel plate, cutting steel plate, weilding, drilling.. suddenly become a production workers. haha.. I'm making a tools storage area for every machine, it doesnt seems important but it can help to save some money for the company and building a fundamental for LEAN production according to a book called "toyota production system".
Let's say every tools dun have a fix place, when the workers need a hammer for example, he is going to search the whole factory just for that. If everyday each worker spend 1hr(normaly they take longer) looking for tools, do your math:

one month pay--> 3000rmb
one month work --> 20days
one day earn --> 3000/20 = 150rmb
one hr earn --> 150/8(8hrs per day) = 18.75rmb
500 workers --> 500x18.75 = 9375rmb

9375rmb lost per month!(doesnt seem alot? To a company in china, it is)
And that's not all, it also means that your production is slow(500 workers x 1hour per day = 500hours lost), 500hrs lost per day. That is all money! failed to deliver the product on time = money gone! which also means more workers needed to cover up.

having a place for everything, and keeping everything in place is the key(according to toyota).

enuff of theory..

Recently there is "tai Feng" in guang zhou area, hmmm.. not too bad, only 150 ppl missing, LOL. beening raining for 2days, which means free air con at night!

Guang zhou pollution is Super Bad! I saw a bus leaving a bus stop just like a octobers escaping from its predator.. LOL. leaving behind a Hug cloud of black smoke! maybe its a system that stop ppl from boarding the bus last min. haha.

The locals got weird way of doing things, they like to do the "substitution method". For example if there's no hammer in sight, they will use a stone.. If there's no skate board, They use water melon's skin....HAHA! If there's no hair dryer? i'll post the pic next time. haha.

27days to make a difference
Mosquite --> X_x---> 700 (getting busy with work no time to kill mosquito HAHA)
