I work in Quality Control. Our business has 1 QC Tech scheduled per shift and between shifts the tech prints out paperwork for various samples the next shift will test throughout their shift.
I noticed that one of the batches had the numbers transposed incorrectly by having the last two digits swapped.
This is unusual because our system doesn’t allow for paperwork to be printed without a batch number being generated previously. So if XY is already in the system XY paperwork will be able to be printed. However if YX is not in the system then YX paperwork doesn’t exist to print.
We have a schedule and YX isn’t on it so the paperwork shouldn’t exist and shouldn’t be able to be entered into the system.
On top of that all our instruments are set up by the proceeding tech and the wrong batch number was also inputted.
I was literally set up to fail.
Who wants to work for a place that works against you, not with you!?
