[QUOTE="CoolShi7Designer, post: 3675619, member: 48420"] Unfortunately, every shop and firm I've ever worked for (and I assume it's true across most if business in general) there is always one office queen/king who approves everyone else's work but doesn't themselves need approval. If that person breaks bad, the amount of damage really has no upper limit depending on the industry. Why, you might give the army pistols that fire when you drop them, or have your condo building in Miami fall down. Like I said, I spend my days doing my damndest to make sure our men have safe functional military aircraft and it's a huge pain in the a$$ to fully comply with every spec. But I know that the military doesn't add **** unless someone died for not having it and they don't add expensive time consuming processes to parts that haven't failed being made more simply. Despite the huge appropriation numbers we see, our military are actually incredible cheap skates in the most bureaucratically expensive way possible. That's a long tangent. The point is, the spec says the shi7 it says for a reason and cutting corners can and does get people killed. I'm glad she got caught and I hope they catch anyone else cheating too. [/QUOTE]
