Open Question: Question for a person that knows how to run a Business? and more... Open Question: Question for a person that knows how to run a Business?Write about your thoughts on how information and communications could be improved within this factory? there is a old established engineering company which has just been sold to new owners. The new owners are concerned that the drawing office has limited CAD facilities and there is no integration with the CAM software being used by the manufacturing engineers to produce programs for the CNC machines which are cutting metal. Scrap rates in the workshop are high because CNC programs are unproven and technicians have to make numerous corrections. Within the business there are limited IT facilities and much communication is still through paper-based systems. The company's main product line is high pressure pipe couplings for use in the aerospace, instrumentation and oil industries. The parts are machined in large quantities in a range of standard sizes using stainless steel bought in as bar stock. As raw material is used, staff manually update stock levels and reorder as required. Each week the company processes about 500 metres each of 30 mm, 40 mm, 50 mm and 60 mm hexagonal diameter bar to make approximately 35,000 couplings. The company also offers the facility to produce 'specials' if requested by a customer. These are manufactured in the fast response cell, and can be turned around within 36 hours of the first contact from the customer. Fast response orders are taken over the phone and confirmed by email. A drawing of the part is sent by the customer as an attachment to the email. Once the order is completed, the couplings are packaged, bar coded and despatched using a special delivery service. One problem that has been identified by the management is that when customers phone in to check on the progress of their orders — whether they be standard or fast response — there is no up-to-date information available. Open Question: Where to go on first date. Help please?Hey. To cut a long story short I am 19 and I plan on asking a lady out to dinner who is 31. Very nervous about it, but the way I see it is that you only live life once, she can either say no or I could not ask and be left pondering what If. I was planning on asking her out to dinner. However my problem is that Im abit shy. Not so much being shy, just can never think of what to say to people. I dont want to ask her out to dinner and for us to be sitting there in silence. Dont get me wrong, I do want to take her out to dinner, but not if it makes it awkward between us. So my question is, If i dont take her out to dinner, where would be a good place to ask her out too? Somewhere where you still talk alot, but not as much as dinner. If that makes sense :) Thanks for all the help greatly appreciated Open Question: I don't think I like my boyfriend anymore. Help?I've been dating my boyfriend for 2 months now. Right before he asked me out, I had a HUGE crush on him, and wanted him to ask me out SO badly! But soon after he asked me out and we went out and I got to know him more... it just kinda went away. For the past month and a half or so, he hasn't really been on my mind and when we hang out I feel like I'm hanging out with a buddy, not a boyfriend. The problem is, according to his friends, he talks about me all the time. His Facebook profile picture is me and him. He wants to hang out alll the time... I'm going to see him tomorrow night. I don't know if I should keep trying to make this work or end it, and hurt him and potentially lose his friendship... Help?? P.S. I'm in high school. Open Question: Advice please: Broke up with her a few days ago after 2 years of dating, now confused about decision.?I was dating my girlfriend for a little over 2 years and broke up with her a few days ago. A few MONTHS ago, i met a girl at work who, whenever i am around her, gives me feelings like a lovestruck schoolboy- which i guess i would be, since I'm a young (20) college student. I have a feeling she feels the same way toward me as she has told me there is "this person" who makes her feel so great when she is around "this person." For a long time I have had the occasional (but increasing in frequency) thoughts of breaking up with my girlfriend, but now that the girl at work has begun to make (what i think are) moves toward me, i found myself wanting very much so to be with the girl at work. I have had problems with my girlfriend, including her cheating on me once, and i have often gotten annoyed or embarrassed with her for being an overall childish person- mean to my friends, mean to other people and me, being way selfish more often than necessary, etc... I have also found myself not very sexually attracted to her: i dont want to kiss or go farther with her very often and find myself not fully into our sexual relationship. Also, a lot of the time I find myself in the "big brother" role, which i am well accustomed to as i am oldest of 3 with no mother. she acts in ways where i feel i have to restrain her and bop her nose with a newspaper or something. I broke up with my girlfriend not knowing if i loved her anymore because of the doubt put in my mind by both my want to be with the girl from work, and my feelings of annoyance, embarrassment, and almost big-brotherly feelings toward my now ex-girlfriend. My now ex, however, is acting very different under the circumstance of the breakup, being more mellow and a little more mature (although that could just be depression) and she is also (and always has been) more mature when talking about serious things, etc... and, well, i just dont know what to feel. Now we are broken up, i think about the good things: she always listens to me, she was always there for me and she supports me and shares interests with me, and i hear those things are hard to come by in a partner. I also find myself missing her and the company she brings and the partnership she offered and i am not feeling empty and alone and resisting the urge to run back to her crying for forgiveness, although at this point i dont know if i miss HER for who she is or because i feel TERRIBLE for putting her through this pain or (and i know it sounds horrible, but hey, I'm a healthy young man) because of the company she offers, the sex (which, even though i wasn't emotionally into it often, i was physically) or what. I feel like we are very close: we know everything about eachother, but for some reason i think we may be apart also, as i seem to know a lot about how she feels the way she does, why she feels the way she feels, but she usually has no idea how or why i feel the way i do. I guess my question really is: Why do i feel this way? how can i sort myself out? Am i motivated by lust? I just need some advice from anyone who has had similar situations. I dated this girl for over 2 years, and she was a big part of my life. also, she still wants to be with me and said she will wait for me if she has to and believes we are not over yet, that this is just a small bump, and is willing to be there for me. but she is also being torn up by the way i am acting, I can tell, I just can't sort out my feelings :/ for any details plz ask, ill post. It's not just a sexual thing, it's more of an emotional thing- but you must realize sex is a very important part of any lasting relationship. Please answer me seriously or not at all :/ More Recent Articles
