thermotron training "Peanut: Taste of holland michigan " | Jeff Dunham: Controlled Chaos



SATURDAY, OCTOBER 28, 2006

The world and the Christian church are quickly witnessing the creation of a "god' that all unholy men can worship. There is an invasion into the church of this "god". He is Christian in appearance without being Christian in Biblical theology. His is a kind of hybrid Christianity with a pious facade that already has millions of church members quickly offering their souls
Hello, as a reminder, no offence intended...i really was wondering if u know of any people in this business with good character. That's what i liked about working as a teacher, people actually had good character.

But obviously i should have put in for a out side sales position... maybe the one bill arvo (detroit) had as out side... or maybe inside .. obviously it is an easy job.. (in my dreams huh)
In california thermotron sales was "get the customer drunk and find out how much money they really had to spend.

Why you ask... well... if Tom patterson can't (and bill arvo couldn't, but hil could) identify the different liars and thieves and embezzlers of your own company and the others that u have worked with... How in the world do you identify the bull the customer might say and your competition?

When Bill bench told me to lie and deceive the customer the customer at the navel station in San Diego, I said to Bill I realize my job to you is to get the customer to sign off... but unfortunity this group is not as dumb as you hoped for: So you tell me what lies they will believe and I will transmit that info, Heck that old sales man who sold the job was useless.. All he could do was say” well it will work at some of the specifications, but we just don’t know which ones...
But i guess the rule is the technician they sent is dumb and we will send someone smarter.

Obviously getting the customer to sign off is parliament, but there was no team work for this at russles or at thermo Ron. When Hil was sent to Litton on a bad project, the custiomer came to me and said .. Great now they are sending people to lie to me and tell me i don't know what i ordered and saw.

Not at all different from thermo Ron... except at thermotron there was daily thieft and embezzlement, Heck I found it so puzzling... that I asked the managemt there if they were a money laundering operation for the Mafa and what they budgeted for it. All these years later I still have not found another company that encouraged lying cheating, stealing, robbery theft and embezzlement, and as banish demonstrated libeling and slandering his co-workers, and drumming them out...

Funny last April i interviewed for a job in new jersey with Environmental specilities and wayne one of the co-owners said they had lost an( 800,000) eight hundred thousand dollar order because they couldn't meet the ship date. I said that is a shame because Dan O'Keff at thermotron says just lie to the customer and tell them what they want to hear because everyone has a slipping ship date, everyone lies to the customer anyway.(But I couldn't get excited about living in new jersey)

So I apologize if this is not common knowledge...

When u walk into a whore house in Los Vegas... most every body is a whore... even the patrons...

Good people with good character is actually hard to find..
or we can just pretend.

If this is new.....then...wow.. good thing i wrote a thesis on this and kept a journal with memos from thermotron.. I have taught on this a few times also.


So in all your wide years of experience do you know of any companies where good people work there?? Herman Miller in Holland seems to have a good rap.. but their management appears to be accountable and upstanding.. gee it even made the news paper a month ago..and it might be true?

Hmmm... Like the war Iraq with George bush and Dick chenny, opps... we got bad info on the W of MD... and no one gets fired for doing a bad job... it must be loyalty.


oh well ...cheers

hell o, i was talking to hil sysbesma about t-land and was wondering what kind of openings do u have on the west coast?
Un less you are running the same kind of shop when hil was there.. where skill, ability and performance don't matter.. (quote from dean tripp)

hello hil... i was in holland and talking to stan van lear.. and some other guy at "turners " company..any way i came across this add.. and was wondering is this what it was about when u and i worked there..???
what's the con job on this one?.. as i have always had to ask some one else what was said.. as u said .. i did't believe any of tom banishes lies.. the the thief i worked with .. greg johenson his pet.

He embessled over 50,000 dollars and the last year he spent selling realestate. as u know he was fired by the next company enseco for thief and embezzlement, and when i talked to randy the boss/owner at enseco they were surprised that someone who worked for thermotron for over 3 years wasn't any good and could on ly change sonolids..

But hil as u know tom bannash promoted lying stealing and embesslement.. " and his i lied for u management" and his "it's ok to be currupt because everyone's currupt! yes, the west coast was a den of liers and theves when he was there.
yes thermotron does offer opportunity ..
i guesss mark lammers was right when he told me that "good people don't work here" or at least at that time

Hi Paul, I had to look several times to verify it was the same company we'd worked for in the past.

That Unique Bonus System sounds like quite a carrot, doesn't it? Very interesting, but I don't think it will take too long for the newly hired to see the true colors. Hil

TRICKS OF THE TRADE


TRICK OR TREAT
ONE GOOD TRICK
A thermo- chamber-salesman was sitting at a bar whose selling point was that it was on top of the largest skyscraper in town.
Another man walks in and asks the bartender for a Jack Daniel’s. He downs it, and then takes a running leap out the window.
Much to everybody’s surprise, he floats back up and climbs through the window back into the bar.
The man at the bar is amazed and asks the man how he did it.
“Easy,” says the thermo-sales-man. “Outside this window are some very strong wind currents which can carry you back to the window.”
“Wow,” says the man at the bar. “I gotta try this.” He takes a running leap out the window and falls to a horrible, bloody, and flat death.
“Goodness, Super THERMO-sales-man,” says the bartender.
You can be a real a jerk when you’re drunk.”
HA HA HA.. as Shelly said in parts
it was just politics !!

Kelli and her husband Riley are frightened in their coastal Oregon home.

Sociopath indicators– Thermotron sales, management , and service training

yes –
at thermotron it’s “REQUIRED” to prove you are a sociopath
 

california former employee




This management team not only kept the employees uninformed, and misinformed, but they kept each other misinformed,
just tell me the good things happening (or the potential dirt on the underlings) I don’t want to hear about problems.
The alcoholic salesman once painted a story that dramatized this distortion.
If for instance a salesman was with as customer and jumped into their lap, kissed them on the lips shit all over themselves and the customer.
By the time the story was filtered to the president it could likely be changed to “
Well the salesman had some Mexican food for lunch and it gave him gas; when he was with the customer he farted a couple times.
It was necessary to learn the skill of
1…”memo documentation”
( at one point this  escalated to something akin to memo wars)
this manager became a habitual liar and denied anything and everything; it became
necessary to document events to anticipate his lack of support in the effort minimize future problems.
As stat ed above it became necessary to write memo’s to document any type of problem.
This manager who was in a different office instead of keeping (remote) employees better informed, covertly told his (cronies) accomplice’s to let him know if a memo’s were being sent. Of course !!
Ah yes, your humble narrator went out to California on a Pilgrimage. Searching for holy cities,
magicians, wild women, and new flavors of the “Wow “Vibes.
California, the Golden State.



At the time, it sort of seemed like an omen. Intuition told me that I would find ” Truth “
in California.
Nobody dies of old age there. Everyone dies prematurely on the highways, and you never know when,
Any minute of any hour some brake lights could blink, tires squeal, and the semi on your rear bumper flattens you into a gruesome road-kill in two seconds flat. It could happen tonight. You live like a hunted beast.
RAZOR-SHARP-ALERT!!!!
Everyone has their day to die on the thruway bleeding, you get your own honorary traffic jam as gawkers creep by admiring your splashed guts. And the traffic jam blocks the ambulance two miles back.
Everyone is famous for
a half an hour.
It’s like a bizarre pagan sacrifice to the Goddess of Asphalt.
No one escapes the hot black alter!
My dashboard was a good luck temple …. four inches deep in St. Christopher statues, rabbit’s feet, four leaf clovers, spirit whistles, eagle feathers, glass pyramids, magic crystals, satchels of voodoo herbs, and photos of Jesus Christ, Budda, Confucius, and Ollie North.
YOU NEED more than AAA.
California the land of promise.
As i drove along those roads I saw it for what it was …….
” THE TRUTH “
” Pou-Fu Loves Sally ”
“Iluminado + Sally ”
” Abdulla Owns Sally “
The thugs hang out every where.
Nubile wenches. Boom boxes, Budweiser,
and Zig-Zag bomers. Litter everywhere..
Yes, the couple years I spent in California……thinking that this was ” IT ” was as much fun as an
…………incurable case of
jumbo Ho Chi Mihn crab lice.
Did I find the Truth??
Boy, did I !!!
I cruised right by
the bright red signs.
WRONG WAY: DO NOT ENTER.

 
All caution to the wind.
The Management method employed was to
1…erode the employees confidence in their work;
2…find some petty reason or fault, real or imaginary,
3… create situations where the employee may have to lie.
4…Put them under pressure so they would fail
5.. then management could supposedly
“COVER FOR THEM”.
6…This provided justification for the employee to LIE FOR The Manager;
This effort was to keep the employees:
7…confused and there for under control,
8…and with the group lying for the Manager “it was a Good day 4 him

A job lost and perspective gained MIKE DRUMMOND
Kevin Holt of Gastonia bears little likeness to the chiseled warriors depicted in Army posters.
He’s 41, heavyset and has a habit of pushing his eyeglasses to the bridge of his nose.
He’s a citizen-soldier.
The former sailor enlisted in the National Guard in July 2004 as a way to supplement his income and heed a call to service.
Last summer, between supervising a chow line at Camp Speicher outside Tikrit, Iraq, and running food convoys, Holt sat at dusty computer keyboards, hunting and pecking the answers to his online college course. He hoped a business degree would help him land a job.
Thermotron Industries, based in Holland, Mich., fired Holt in April 2005, near the height of the Bush administration’s call-up of National Guard members and just a week after Holt told the company he was being deployed to Iraq.
Holt serviced Thermotron’s environmental test chambers, which expose electronics and other devices to temperature extremes. He covered a patch of the Southeast for the privately held, mid-sized company, making about $54,000 a year.
Holt says Thermotron accused him of trying to bill the company for Yellow Pages advertising he had ordered for his side repair business. BellSouth had mailed the bill to Thermotron by mistake, an error
Holt said his boss had resolved more than eight months before.
The married father of two worked seven years for Thermotron, which has a growing defense-contract business. T
he termination was an about-face for a company that two months before firing him had given Holt another glowing annual evaluation.

The dutchboy Religious Holland Michigan Whore manager


The dutchboy Religious manager
conspired to defraud his co-workers;
and if someone didn’t go along with the stories (support his lies)
he would point suspicion about them by saying things like,
“they have a problem“.
Uuuuu has overlooked the character of a liar; a liar will:
1.lie,
2.cheat,
3.steal and embezzle,
4.slander,
5.murder,
6.lead people astray,
7.blame it on someone else,
8.deny it,
9.then lie about it.
Everyone wishes everyone else’s discrediting, demotion, and ruin;
everyone is an expert in the confidential report, the pretended alliancethe stab in the back.
Over all this their good manners, their expressions of grave respect,
their “tributes” to one another’s invaluable services form a thin crust.
Every now and then it gets punctured, and the scalding lava of their hatred spurts out.
Seems that ole A.G. has taken a strange tack here.
I used to think that I had missed something by not moving directly from college into the weird world of neckties & suits & shoulderpads & high heels..
That is, until I got the last few jobs.
Now I can see that I didn’t miss anything. That I was blessed to have taken the narrow winding path instead.
My recent leap right smack into the world of mainstream has been a Piss-in-Your-Pants sort of exp.
Really! A non-stop journey through the Twilight Zone.
Astonishingly illuminating. Naturally, my response has been sharp and merciless.
It takes a good grip not to get sucked into the machinery.
But anyway, Jung said if you become highly individualized
(free thinker) , you can become independent of the mass consciousness.
It is these liberated individuals- who live outside the circle of the druid dance- who sometimes change the course of human history. (the Lutheran religion started thus)
Tis the hermits and pilgrims and magicians that will save us, if anyone can.
So, A.G., this is what I think:
There are two kinds of critics.
There are critics motivated by poison and insanity who criticize with the intention of causing pain (read Mein Kampf by A. Hitler);
and there are critics motivated by an intense optimism [now rare] who criticize for the sake of awakening rapture (read Island by A. Huxley).
I hallucinate that I am of the latter type. Thanks for your concern. What I’m doing is necessary to my voyage. Sorry it’s so weird.
Being a Seeker-of-Truth is a difficult path to walk, people want to hear what they want to hear… and what do they want to hear?
That they are fine, good, clever, smart and successful whom we all have a great deal of respect for.
ed. [Seeking human respect can be fatal, a fatal error]
The games that people play, reinforce whatever social rules they are trying to fulfil; Whatever dream or image they are trying to promote.
Big John the Tindink early on dramatized the game of deceit at one weasel factory I worked.
In the effort to hide his backstabbing and defrauding his co-workers he would say :
“Old Bob is as Smart as a Fox.
Old Bob the Original “First Ever” National Manager. You might say he was
” the Godfather ” of the “I Lied for You “
Good Old Boy’s Club in the environmental chamber industry.
So, lets take a look at his Character and the business methods he employed.

Exodus 20:15, Series: Pathway to Freedom
You’ve probably heard every explanation in the book when it comes to stealing. But as far as God is concerned, stealing is stealing. On today’s broadcast of Truth For Life with Alistair Begg, we’ll learn more about stealing, and how it is more than taking a few office supplies.
Recent Broadcasts I Was Only Borrowing It, Part A
when i was at thermotron i didn’t even know of the word embezzler or how much “work” it takes.. but by the time i left.. it was a life style that was taught by the MANAGEMENT TEAM.. it just takes pratice
Exodus 20:15
Thou Shalt Not Steal
Ask the customer to borrw some equipment or your co-worker..
and “forget to return it!!”
——————————————————————————–
“You shall not steal.”
INTRODUCTION
The story is told of a shopkeeper who was trying to explain business ethics to his son. “Suppose you discover, after he has left, that a customer mistakenly gave you a $100.00 bill instead of a ten. Now, here is the most important question of business ethics: Should you tell your partner?”
In New York in the 1860′s, gold was carried by messengers on Wall Street in open bags. When one burst, the bystanders formed a protective circle around the courier until he was able to pick it all up. Anyone leaning over got a swift kick in the rear from the others (Sobel, Panic on Wall Street. NY: MacMillan, 1986, p. 116).
Archaeologists tell us that in ancient Israel, the houses only had curtains across the doorways; their pagan neighbors had tight-fitting stone doors. Which kind of society would you rather live in?
Well, today even double-bolt locks won’t keep the Enrons of the world from robbing you blind. It is time once again to come back to the basics, and surely one of them is “Thou shalt not steal.”
I. THE BIBLICAL BASIS OF PRIVATE PROPERTY
The very prohibition of stealing implies the existence of private property rights. Unless someone has a right to something, I might reappropriate it but can hardly steal it.
Because the biblical view of the nature, meaning, and purpose of property is essential not only to understanding what stealing is but is also central to understanding human identity, we need to begin our study of the Eighth Commandment by laying the foundation here.
PEOPLE OWN THINGS BY RIGHT OF CREATION
In the first place, PEOPLE OWN THINGS BY RIGHT OF CREATION. God owns the whole universe and everything in it because He made it (Gen. 1:1).
David makes explicit the connection between ownership and creation in Ps. 24:1-2. The earth is the Lord’s, and all it contains (v. 1).
Why? Because he has founded it upon the seas (v. 2).
You therefore have a right to determine the use of that which you make, which would include the right to exchange it for something else, which would then become your property as if you had made that. This right is absolute in the case of God, because He made everything out of nothing. We must always get the materials for what we make somewhere else, ultimately from Him, sometimes through others. So our ownership is always derivative and conditional.
But because we are the creative animal made in His image, the energy and intelligence we add to that material gives us a proprietary interest in it, derived from His. In that sense, labor is the foundation of all wealth. Since I cannot eat my lectures and sermons, nor wear them, nor live in them, nor drive them, I exchange them for money–symbolic wealth–that I can use to purchase those other things. The factory worker cannot eat the car he makes either, so he is in the same position. He in effect sells the proprietary interest his labor gives him in the car back to the factory, which pays him for it in the form of a salary and benefits, at a rate which they have agreed on. (Those who are learned in these matters may notice a superficial resemblance to the Marxist labor theory of wealth. This should not surprise us, because Marxism is after all a Christian heresy).
So we see that creativity is the basis of property–I did not make everything I own, but my right to own it flows back to something I did make, to my own creative activity and labor.
PEOPLE OWN THINGS BY RIGHT OF STEWARDSHIP
In the second place, PEOPLE OWN THINGS BY RIGHT OF STEWARDSHIP. A steward is a servant who manages someone else’s property for the benefit of the owner.
Well, God put Adam into the Garden of Eden to rule over it (Gen. 1:26) and to take care of it and develop it, to “cultivate” it (2:15). God owns everything by right of creation, and he has entrusted some of it to me to manage on his behalf.
Property then is a way of speaking about that particular chunk of creation over which I personally exercise my little part of the original Adamic dominion as God’s steward. Ownership then has to do with dominion, control, and most of all with responsibility.
For the Christian, then, ownership IS stewardship. Because I was made to be God’s steward, responsibility to Him for the cultivation and use of his creation is the thing that fulfills my nature. Through my labor (or through gift or inheritance) I therefore seek the right to be responsible for a larger part of that creation. To say that I “own” my car is to say that it is the car for which I am responsible to God, it and not another.
I am not responsible for Todd’s little car–to maintain it, to make the payments on it, to see that it is used for the benefit of my family and God’s people and for His glory because it is really HIS car. I am responsible for mine.
If I run off with Todd’s car without asking his permission, what have I done? I have usurped an area of responsibility that God has given to him, not to me. And because responsibility to God is the thing we were created for and which therefore fulfills our natures, I have “stolen” from him, not just a piece of highly organized metal, but a part of his very created and creative identity. He may not recognize this–he may be thinking materialistically that it is just a car, a thing, a means of transportation. But that is still what I have done, nevertheless.
Why then is stealing wrong?
Because God recognizes this basic law of stewardship and will not allow one person to usurp authority and responsibility that He has given to another.
That’s what stealing ultimately is: not just taking material things but usurping responsibility. Therefore, we have the Eighth Commandment: “Thou shalt not steal.”
This biblical justification of private property rights flows inevitably from the doctrines of creation and the image of God, but some people see a biblical objection to it. What, they ask, about the Jerusalem “commune” of Acts 2:44, when the early saints “had everything in common”?
It is clear from a careful look at the whole context that this was not a divine mandate or even ideal, but an emergency measure for a very special crisis. Thousands of people had just been saved who were not residents of Jerusalem but Diaspora Jews from all over the Empire. Before they could be sent back home they had to be discipled.
To be discipled they had to be housed and fed by a small group of about five hundred. But the story of Annanias and Saphira shows that the principle of private individuals being responsible for what God had given them was not overturned. This couple sold a piece of property and pretended to give all the proceeds to the apostles, while actually keeping some back for themselves. It is clear from Acts 5:4 that their sin was not in keeping some of the money, but only in lying about it. Peter upholds their right to manage what God had given them as they thought best.
To summarize, creation produces a relationship between labor and responsibility. Property is then simply one’s sphere of responsibility expressed in physical or financial terms. It lawfully comes to us by labor, by investment, by inheritance, or by gift. (Labor is the most basic, for all the other forms depend on somebody’s labor at some point.) To take it in other ways is stealing. And this is wrong because nobody has the right to usurp responsibility that God has given to another.
II. SOME FORMS OF THEFT
Once we realize that property is simply a form of responsibility under God for a part of His creation, then we can see that stealing involves a lot more than shoplifting, mugging somebody, burglary, embezzlement, or extortion. Any usurpation of another’s responsibility is theft. But since everything is owned by God and we are responsible to Him, any failure to fulfill our responsibilities under God can be considered a form of theft. Here are a few we don’t often think about.
First, the failure to give an honest day’s work for a day’s pay is a form of stealing. (The failure to give an honest day’s pay for a day’s work is too, but as we don’t have any CEO’s in our congregation we will concentrate on the former.)
Studies have shown that the average American worker only puts in about two productive hours for every eight he spends on the job. This steals not only from his employer but also from every consumer who must pay for his laziness in the form of higher prices.
Next let us consider shoplifting, cheating on income taxes, and office theft.
Why do I lump these problems together? Because they all involve stealing from an institution rather than from an individual.
And therefore many people’s consciences simply do not bother them for these acts–the facelessness of the victim renders these thieves incapable of imagining that what they are doing is really stealing. Therefore we need to make the point that it is just as wrong. Again, in the aggregate it steals from everybody in the form of inflated prices and higher taxes.
Next we come to that grand old childhood maxim, “Finders keepers, losers weepers.” Not only is this a very uncharitable approach, but it is forbidden explicitly–even if the loser is your enemy, so how much more if he is your neighbor. “If you meet your enemy’s ox or his donkey wandering away, you shall surely return it to him” (Ex. 23:4).
Finally, since property is responsibility, any failure to meet your obligations under God is really a form of stealing. Think of it in terms of obligation: Fathers owe their families godly leadership by example; children owe honor and obedience to their parents and teachers; all believers owe the Gospel to their neighbors (Rom. 1:4). Not paying what you owe is a passive form of stealing. So you may never have taken one red cent that did not belong to you, but if you shirk these responsibilities under God, you are a thief and a robber, just as surely as if you had robbed a 7-11, knocked over a liquor store, snatched a purse, burgled a house, or mugged a pedestrian.
III. SOME FINAL THOUGHTS
Why do we wrestle with this issue? Stealing in all its forms, from the grandest larceny to the pettiest theft, flows from two attitude problems. First is a failure to trust in God’s providence. We are greedy and grasping because we are insecure, and we are insecure because of our lack of faith.
But consider the lilies of the field, how they grow–they neither toil nor spin, and yet your Father clothes them. Second is a failure to understand the role of responsibility in our lives and its relationship to fulfillment. If you think you want Things, you find that you never have enough.
Why?
Because it is not things that fulfill us, but what they represent. Godly dominion is the most fulfilling experience you will ever have, because it is what you were made for. Stealing is self defeating, because it destroys the very reason why property exists in the first place. To gratefully accept from our Father increasing responsibility–because we have been faithful in little things–to manage for Him an ever larger piece of His creation, for the glory of His name, the good of His people, and the spread of His Gospel–that is what you were made for! If that is not true then creation is not true, the image of God is not true, the Bible is not true; let us eat, drink, and be merry, and spend everything on ourselves, for tomorrow we die.
By contrast with this, greed, selfishness, and every irresponsible form of getting and spending is the path of boredom, anxiety, meaninglessness, and death.
