***You would think that when a guy comes in with brand new reels of copper cable date coded in the last 12 months or so,***

At our plant, when it was being built, the construction workers would have lunch in the underground manholes. We would watch as a roll of copper ground wire would slowly unroll about eight inches at a time. We knew someone was cutting it into sections to take out in their lunchboxes.

Once our assistant plant manager got into a clean up mode and sold some washers to the scrap company. Our electrical engineer was livid because those were special high dollar washers for the generator and he had to pay a premium to the scrap yard to buy them back.
