minus-squareGreenKnight23@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up25·1 个月前factory I worked at, I snapped a bearing rod on an injection machine. it was made of steel, about 16 inches in diameter, about 18ft long, and cost around $1.5 million to replace. complete accident, required a mandatory one week off (no pay) while they investigated if it was due to negligence or just routine wear and tear. it took them six months to get a new one and cost the company close to $100 million on lost revenue on top of the cost of the part.

minus-squareGreenKnight23@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up12·1 个月前I did. I was a good employee, worked hard, and was well liked. it was also found that there was a flaw in the rod that caused it to fail.
