They visited the factory last month. I have a small cameo in this one, via my signature as QCer of the John Mayer Silver Sky model in John Bohlinger's hands. Here's a screen cap, flipped upside down. Mia (the other sig there) is on my team. She's about 5' tall and weighs about 98 lbs, and she sanded the body after the CNC process. She's terrific at her job.  |

Mia sounds like one of my Filipina friends... a bit on the tall side, though.
I love the look of those work stations. The partitions, super clean, amazing lighting, downdraft benches... all very expensive, but go a very long way for worker health, safety and happiness, as well as contributing to the quality of a final product.

The director of the video dropped the ball when they were getting a close up of that bearded hippy wiping down the SE. He was grinning like a Cheshire cat, totally draining the "act normal" out of the scene. And, yet, at no point did the director of the video move in and smack him in the back of the noggin and exclaim "Wipe that smile off your face you dope! Look natural!".

Did you notice the person in the background seeing the crew filming, and thinking, "NOPE"? This happened in several spots. Here's one: Here's another...the guy pushing the rack: |

The most obvious one was dude rounding the corner of the warehouse rack and immediately doing a 180 and going around the other side. lol |

Years ago our CEO was the subject of "Undercover Boss." When it came to the final scenes (shot at corporate) they did a huge roundup of employees for the closing scenes.
There was one guy missing.

Cool indeed! Thank you for sharing Peegoo. Talk about a dream job. Paul Reed Smith seems to hype his build quality but he backs it up - the hype is real. Still a fanboi after all these year.  PRS Custom 24 1 by Mark From Hawaii |

They are always trying weird and wacky stuff in the R&D department. I got to mess with a prototype glow-in-the-dark fretboard on a neck this evening.
I WANT one!

(Also, be careful with the NDA stuff - you'd probably just get a slap on the wrist, but that can create a lot of workplace drama.)
