Update: Had to decide on a sketchy door interlock bypass last week.
Years ago, guys would rig it to avoid a shutdown. Now I shut it down and took the heat for delayed service.

Two years back at the old warehouse on Elm Street, we had a faulty safety interlock on the loading bay door. Everyone kept jamming it with a piece of wood to keep things moving. I pulled the plug during my shift, called maintenance, and got chewed out by the foreman for stopping production. But the fix only took four hours, and we avoided what could have been a real bad accident. Sometimes you just have to eat the short-term grief.

Man, the worst part is how everyone just accepts the broken system. It's scary how normal it starts to feel until one person has to be the weirdo who actually follows the rules.

Was that safety issue really as dangerous as everyone thought? From what I've seen, those interlocks can be finicky but rarely cause real harm. It's possible you just slowed things down for no good reason.
