1. where my daughter works
they have problems with a certain parts supplier from india. if there is a problem there is`t anyway to know if the part has been"fixed" because there is more on a ship somewhere. instead of buying from a plant in the usa where one could stop production with out making hundreds or thousands of bad parts...no it`s cheaper to buy overseas.

what the hell happened to just in time with american industry? now they buy thousands of parts overseas and store them until needed.......i guess the parts are so cheap they figure that it is cheaper to store those parts till needed.
now they are storing parts longer because no one is buying their product..buying overseas can be such a bitch
