While cleaning out the shop the other day, I realized that we had a lot of junk.  I mean that we had shelf upon shelf of old parts, colleting dust and taking up space.  It was about time that someone did something about it, so I went to talk to the boss and ask if that would be alright if I did.

He was happy that I offered to help clean the shop and take initiative.  He told me that I had the right to throw out anything that wouldn’t be useful to the business anymore and if there were any doubts, I should talk to him.

So, I began the cleaning that would become a week long affair.  I threw out many things that our company no longer used such as a rubber track for Bobcat mini excavator, old motor parts, and even some old hood ornaments.

Needless to say, when I got rid of all the trash that we had in the shop, there was a lot of room in there.
