Six Sigma

I'm starting Six Sigma Green Belt classes tonight so I can become a certified GE foot soldier in the war against defects. There I will learn how to wave my hands in a more authoritative fashion and hopefully, one day be taken seriously by my co-workers. Basic training is 5-9pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays for two months. Expect updates throughout the process. My first objective is figure out why it's called a green belt. Second mission will be to find an actual green belt and wear it everyday to class.

"The tenants of Six Sigma are:

  • Teamwork
  • Insight
  • Brutality
  • Male Enhancement
  • Handshakefullness
  • Play Hard"

    -Jack Donaghy at the GE "Retreat to Move Forward"

  1. Rob - You and I should go into the business of putting on these seminars. You can be the salesman to blow smoke up their ass, I will pontificate about six sigma. Then we will drink beer and eat clam chowder out of a pan.
