re: #260 Decatur Deb

I drove 6 million screws into the back of 2 million GE’s, Hotpoints, Kenmores, etc. That’s how I got through U of L.

For accuracy, I re-looked that calculation, and came up with 3 million screws into 1.5 million refrigerators@1500/shift. (I did other things on the line.) Still a lot of screwing around, and it teaches you what a million of something really is.

At full tilt, our building ran three such lines for 2-3 shifts per day. When they came together at the conveyor to the massive warehouse, it looked like an endless river of boxes.
