So... I build airplanes. I work for a company that builds small jets for private owners and charter companies. Our assembly floor is SIMILAR to an assembly line in that a plane will roll into my station. My crew will work on it for 8 days installing a bunch of stuff and then it goes to the next station.
Yesterday, my floor supervisor found a bay on a plane that had a lot of noticeable FOD (Foreign Object Debris) and went to the quality inspection guys and said something to them about making sure when they inspected our work, they point out FOD.
Apparently, my supervisor caught one of our inspectors on the wrong fucking day, because this guy spent the rest of the day giving us the "white glove" treatment and rejecting our work OVER AND OVER AND OVER.
I literally had to wait until today when I came in to work overtime to have a different inspector sign off my work.
To be clear, THERE WAS NO FOD. I was getting written up if he found bits of dust in an ACTIVE work environment.
I logged 8 hours of overtime just to get a job cleared that I finished YESTERDAY.
