Michael Marx of iSixSigma Blogosphere has a series of interesting posts for this Halloween.
First, he talked about the frightening. He shared a story about the fuzzrock trio named Six Sigma labeling it as the dark side of Six Sigma. Like the group, Six Sigma rocks!
Second, he talked about the sweet. It was the story of how Hershey’s kisses errors goodbye. The downside however is that the company also said goodbye to quite a number of employees. Not so sweet, if you think about it.
Third, Michael talked about a not-really-frightening thing but some kind of eerie, which is blood. Blood Systems laboratories uses Six Sigma to improve blood donor testing (that includes incubationt time and tolerance error). Then Mike says, “…don’t let Six Sigma do all the saving…you too can help save lives. Be a Hero this Halloween and donate blood!” I agree!
Finally, he talked about the orange. A Six Sigma company, ConocoPhillips invites its customers to visit its refinery, view smiling jack (a giant smiling pumpkin), and sample its caramel corn. Yummy!
Happy halloween everyone!
