I'm gonna see if I can get you guys Human Resource Certification credits for reading my posts.

Makes sense, Jamo. I'm not sure which term I originally heard now, lock down or lockout. The Bobcat plant would've actually been in a situation of
lock down and it is my guess that the wrong term was commonly bandied about ...well, like I just did.
Human Resource Certification credits? Hey, alright.
