    There ya go, Owen. Why fiddle with CN-Buh-C when you can take on the entire General Electric hegemony?

    Owen, you shouldn't have to make the readers do the math.

    Yeah, Six Sigma evangelism in industries that don't benefit from an obsession with measurables makes me insane. I'm looking at you, banking. Most of the time, Six Sigma involves using pre-defined toolsets to drive business process conversations into an organized nightmare of useless groupthink.


    I'm so out of love with the stuff. Every time someone tries to "quantify" an abstract process I just play that episode of The Wire where they juxtapose a successful meeting about dropping murder stats with pictures of those kids hiding bodies in vacant homes.

    Currently witnessing this happen, so, yes. However, I can imagine that in the wrong hands it could become fairly silly.


    Kind of feels like the difference between being a tidy person and being a person who has to touch the door knob thirty times before leaving the house to ensure that no one will break in and trash it.

    I always thought it was a sign of how bad-ass Toyota is that they have a production system named after them.
