I understood the customer part to be in
two components; The ‘first’
customer who does not complain may be the distributor. The ‘second’
customer who does complain may be the one who buys from the distributor.
(Probably the type of people who are in the stage/audience
of the Jerry Springer TV show.) From:
Euric [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] It is interesting that American companies are using metric
to some extent. Even if they have to do so in secret or let the machine
do it. I see a conflict in these two statements. If the
customers don't complain when shop drawings are in metric, then why must the
business remain imperial for customer reasons? If someone were to
complain, then the company employee only need say that today all the machines
and patterns are 100 % metric and so all of us in this industry has to be
that way too. ·
The design end of
our business must remain in imperial dimensions for customer reasons. L

Patterns are in
metric even on the shop drawings for the customer's approval and they never
complain. J
If a shop tries to train employees and they refuse, they
should be shown the street. It should have been enforced and by now
everyone would have been use to it. Euric |
