Quotes About Production

All human livings in industrial society are ultimately based on agricultural production and mineral extraction.

They sent me three songs written by a Texas songwriter they represented named Jerry Lynn Williams—"Forever Man," "Something's Happening," and "See What Love Can Do"—and they were good.

I think it was, professionally, the first time I'd ever had to back down.

When companies switch to this kind of production, their warehouses immediately shrink, as the amount of just-in-case inventory [called work-in-progress (WIP) inventory] is reduced dramatically. This almost magical shrinkage of WIP is where lean manufacturing gets its name. It's as if the whole supply chain suddenly went on a diet.
