It’s a known problem with known solutions. “Foreign object elimination” I ended up taking the FOE training after someone left a tool at a radar site. I work in software and never visited the site, but “big company”. FOD foreign object damage is what everyone is trying to avoid.

- sysadmindotfail 7y agoAny large aerospace contractor has mandatory FOD/FOE training for ALL employees (contract stipulation). Don't forget to not charge for this time spent!

- saber6 7y agoI think he’s just saying remember to get paid for it. Don’t do it for free if you are hourly or contracting. Required training in the US is a paid activity.
- acomjean 7y agoIf you've ever worked for a defense contractor, you have charge codes for everything. They take charging to the correct code correctly very very seriously. (In 6 minute intervals (.1 hr)). Submit your time daily. We were a Boeing Sub contractor. Timecard fraud was a fireable offense. The company I worked for was rumored to have fired someone who came into the office on a weekend and badged in his buddy who wasn't actually there. Basically trying to game the door timer system. My last task at big co, was making a timecard app for ios and blackberry, to make it easy.
- Danieru 7y agoYes that makes sense, but the interesting story would by why required training should _not_ be billed to the client.
