Default Dodged a cruise missile this week

Last week there was a potential issue at the wife’s place of employment. Short story, a machine that is use to wash all finished products (electronics) was thought to be contaminating the products and causing components to short out. A panic ensued and they shut down shipping until testing could be done. All the initial tests came back OK and the final tests came back yesterday and every one passed with flying colors. They are now looking at vendor part failure as the source so the liability is off her company and they can now start shipping again. Had the contamination been occurring and a recall of all products happened it would have bankrupted the company (they ship 1.5 - 2 million a month). The product in question was made in early September so they feared it could be a huge recall. In a meeting last week management was told if the test comes back as a failure we will be closing the doors THAT day, period.

As a thank you the company announced mandatory 6 days to catch up.
Great, more stress for her, but still employed
