#1 Must be something in the water over there. A British company bought a local factory and now, in order for the test lab in the local factory to obtain a run sample for testing they must follow the following procedure:

1. The local test lab must dispatch a request for a sample to an office 600 miles away.

2. Upon approval the office 600 miles away orders that a sample from the local production line be set aside for testing.

3. Said sample is then boxed and sent to the shipping department of the local factory.

4. Said sample is dispatched from the shipping department of the local factory via UPS.

5. UPS takes said sample approximately 100 miles north from local factory to a sorting facility where it is duly sorted and later returned to a shipping facility 60 miles south of the local factory.

6. UPS delivers the sample to the shipping department of the local factory where it is then delivered to the local test department.

Keep in mind that the local shipping department, test facility, and production lines are all under the same roof and that none is more than 300 yards from the other two. And Europeans wonder why they're not competitive.
