Crest Ink - Volume 33 - Number 03

Way to go to Justin Lugo, Heather Thomasson, Joe Johnson, Trenton Thomasson and Payton Sipes! “Thank you to this group for working together and staying over to finish up seasoning on Line 89 last Monday so that Sanitation could clean the line and have it ready for an A-Shift start-up.” Way to go Kim Gallagher, Rick Rice & Cody Brill! “These 3 worked together to discover an issue with registra- tion timing on line 32 that enabled us to run noodle soup at bid speed. This is something that this line has not done in over a year!” Way to go Art Stark, Matt Reynolds, Adam Giese, John Howell, Matt Gorzela, Annie Etchison and Olgert Refatllari. “Thank you to this group who stayed late on 8/20 to get line 70 changed over and ready for the start-up on Sunday night with C-Shift. Also thanks to Olgert who covered line calls so this group could help with the changeover.” Way to go Contract Packaging Scheduling Department! “Thank you to this team for working together to do whatever it takes to keep things rollin’ while we are short-staffed. Everyone has stepped up and learned new things and the effort as a group is very appreciated!” Way to go C-Shift Sanitation! “Thank you the crews in both facilities for working together to manage change- overs and other requests while being short-staffed. Thank you as well to the other departments who helped this group along the way!” Way to go Sanitation & Maintenance Departments! “We don’t often get to pressure wash a Bartelt that is going back on the line right away (which is MUCH easier than handwiping it for many hours), so when Manitenance agreed to pull the CHEX Bartelt we were relieved! B-Shift Sanitation worked with Maintenance to get it in and out of the washbay, C-Shift worked on the parts and pieces, and A-Shift washed the Bartelt. Great team effort!” Way to go David Smith, Robert Raines & Will Hand from B-Shift Production! “They worked together to run both lines 83 and 85 at the same time to run out seasoning on 83 so it could be changed over in time to run on A- Shift.” Way to go to the West Warehouse Receiving Crew! “The receiving crew and QA have done a great job with one of our new suppliers. Thank you for working together to make sure each load from the supplier is received cor- rectly. Your patience and attention to are truly appreciated.” Way to go Chris Buhler (Production B West)! “We were short a dumper and Chris helped me out by dumping 83, 85, 91 & 85 so the team could be ready for a changeover and wouldn’t have to run something at half speed. Thank you, I appreciate the help!” Way to Go Mike Boatwright (Parts Room) & Maintenance! “Thank you to Mike and the Maintenance group for figuring out how to make a part in-house instead of ordering it custom. This saves us $259 each time we need to order a handle for the 3M tape machines. Outstanding job!” Way to go Matt Reynolds, Mike Jenkins, Holly Adams, Addison Walters & Adam Calderon! “This group stayed late and worked together to finish cases on line 81 so that the clean and changeover could be started sooner on C-Shift.” “Big shout out to all the extra hands we have had from various departments in the Ingredient Division this month! With all of your help, we have managed to keep the wheels rolling and the pipeline full for our customers. Whether you spent a few hours with us or a few weeks, I truly appreciate your willingness to help us through a chal- lenging time!” Thank You to the Mix Department! “Thank you to the Mix Department who volunteered to re-stack 37 pallets that weren’t stacked properly so that we could still ship product in a timely manner.” Way to Go on Master Cleans! “We are 3/4 of the way through the current quarter and we are only 8.8% behind on our scheduled masters - it might sound silly to celebrate being behind schedule but this is actually a pretty good number considering level of activity and staffing. Thank you to the many employees in many departments who have put in time and effort to complete these master cleans.”
