The odds

I know I have mentioned before the one person I really don't like, CB. He is very interested in cleanliness and completely freaks out if a lab tech doesn't hose off a silo after getting a sample.

A couple of weeks ago, he yelled at MH for not cleaning off a silo which had chicken soup in it. No one hoses off soup silos. Soup does not make that much of a mess! He yelled at her and she refused to do it and he used this as an excuse to leave halfway through his shift. Everyone in the plant heard about it.

Last night, I sampled pudding from one of the silos on his end of the plant. I did not make a mess. There was a small stream of pudding down the door of the silo under the sample port. I have literally seen more pudding on Tea's paperwork than there was on that silo.

I knew he was watching, but I did not hose it down.

He did not yell at me.

Two hours later, another blender told me he had thrown a fit about it and made V-dogg walk down there to look at it.

V-dogg, love of my life, basically told him to quit being such a whiner.

Obviously, CB does not know my theory on silo cleaning... There is an 85% chance I will wash down any silo I sample, depending on a variety of factors. Everytime one of the blenders is a dick to me, those odds drop five percent.

Knowing this, no one would ever bet on CB's satisfaction when I'm around.
