TrampSteer Posted July 15, 2014 Report Posted July 15, 2014 Back in the day when working in manufacturing, ANY change was a different part number. Even if it was color. There is also a rumor of some companies who would create a new part number with no changes so they could track new -vs- replacement part stock. Not sure how true that is. Quote
JBNeal Posted July 15, 2014 Report Posted July 15, 2014 I worked with a real nice guy, 10 yrs my junior right out of school...a real BS artist who could fake his way out of a problem & booze it up with the big wigs that allowed him to move up the totem pole to be my boss in two different divisions. He would routinely take my work with released part numbers, obsolete them, and replace them with new numbers with his name on the drawing...he even took credit for some work that I did a full year before he started working there...so when it comes to part numbers, sometimes all it takes is a real nice guy to make them appear 3 Quote
