Download or read book Factory Summers written by Guy Delisle and published by Drawn & Quarterly. This book was released on 2022-08-03 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For three summers beginning when he was 16, cartoonist Guy Delisle worked at a pulp and paper factory in Quebec City. Factory Summers chronicles the daily rhythms of life in the mill, and the twelve hour shifts he spent in a hot, noisy building filled with arcane machinery. Delisle takes his noted outsider perspective and applies it domestically, this time as a boy amongst men through the universal rite of passage of the summer job. Even as a teenager, Delisle’s keen eye for hypocrisy highlights the tensions of class and the rampant sexism an all-male workplace permits. Guy works the floor doing physically strenuous tasks. He is one of the few young people on site, and furthermore gets the job through his father’s connections, a fact which rightfully earns him disdain from the lifers. Guy’s dad spends his whole career in the white collar offices, working 9 to 5 instead of the rigorous 12-hour shifts of the unionized labor. Guy and his dad aren’t close, and Factory Summers leaves Delisle reconciling whether the job led to his dad’s aloofness and unhappiness. On his days off, Guy finds refuge in art, a world far beyond the factory floor. Delisle shows himself rediscovering comics at the public library, and preparing for animation school–only to be told on the first day, “There are no jobs in animation.” Eager to pursue a job he enjoys, Guy throws caution to the wind. Translated by Helge Dascher and Rob Aspinall

Book Synopsis Just in Time Factory by : José Luís Quesado Pinto
Download or read book Just in Time Factory written by José Luís Quesado Pinto and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-26 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains the implementation of just in time (JIT) production in an industrial context, while also highlighting the application of various, vital lean production tools. Shifting the trade-off between productivity and quality, the book discusses the preparation stages needed before implementing a JIT system. After an introduction to lean manufacturing and JIT, it introduces readers to the fundamentals and practice of Kaizen, paying special attention to lean manufacturing tools. The book demonstrates how to use the 5S approach (with the stages of Seiri, Seiton, Seiso, Seiketsu and Shitsuke), Standardized Work, Single Minute Exchange of Die (SMED) and the Kanban system. In brief, the book provides an understanding of the processes associated with the application of these tools and highlights the benefits attained by companies that have implemented JIT systems. Throughout the book, a real-world case study is used to deepen readers’ understanding of how lean manufacturing tools can be implemented. The book is ideally suited for executive courses in industrial engineering and management, but can also be used for upper undergraduate and graduate courses at universities.

Book excerpt: "You'll live out your lives in a foreign country," Gül is warned. But the whole world is foreign when you're far from your loved ones. The train ride to Germany ushers in the days of long-awaited letters, night-time telephone calls and blissful summers back home. The years of hard work will flow like water before her house in Turkey is built and she can return. Until then, there will be fireworks, young love, and the cassette tapes of the summer played on repeat. In these years, Gül will learn all kinds of longing: for her two daughters, for her father the blacksmith, for scents and colours and fruit. Yet imperceptibly, Factory Lane in this cold, incomprehensible country becomes a different kind of home. A novel about how home is found in many places and yet still eludes us.
Book Synopsis From York Factory to Medicine Hat, Don't Just Read Your History, Go There by : Sharon Hogg
Download or read book From York Factory to Medicine Hat, Don't Just Read Your History, Go There written by Sharon Hogg and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2024-11-18 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In late August of 2013 my Métis husband, Nelson and I had signed up for the Manitoba Historical Fur Trade Tour leaving out of Winnipeg, Manitoba. We had been on a quest to learn more about where his ancestors came from and walk in the places where they had been. This is where we learned about the Hudson Bay Company side of the family and the Homeguard Cree who lived and worked alongside. At York Factory, from high in the cupola of the Depot Building, I saw below the little one-room schoolhouse where Catherine Sinclair, Harriet Ballenden, and Joseph Cook had attended over 200 years before. My husband is a product of that gene pool. Since that trip to Manitoba, I have been on a mission to find all I could about these ancestors and learn how they fit into our Canadian history. I have found beautiful and also tragic stories. I have found stories that make me proud and stories that make me sad. I have found discrepancies in dates and important data that nag at me to get as close to the truth as possible. I have discovered differences in the French Métis and the Scottish Métis, and how these ancestors lived through some turbulent times in our history. I’ve found the stories of explorers and traders, buffalo hunters, peacemakers, and entrepreneurs, stories of love, commitment, and survival. In many cases I have retained the stories just as I found them. People are becoming more and more interested in finding their roots. Indigenous and Métis especially have become more aware of their place in Canada’s history, where they have made valuable contributions, or where they may have been pushed aside in favor of colonization. I have found it exciting to feel the presence of those who have gone before us as I have researched their lives and walked where they once walked. I hope that my book will inspire people to get out and find the places where their story begins just as Nelson and I have done.

Book Synopsis The Factory Girls by : Christine Seifert
Download or read book The Factory Girls written by Christine Seifert and published by Zest Books ™. This book was released on 2019-08-01 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twentieth century ushered in a new world filled with a dazzling array of consumer goods. Even the poorest immigrant girls could afford a blouse or two. But these same immigrant teens toiled away in factories in appalling working conditions. Their hard work and sacrifice lined the pockets of greedy factory owners who were almost exclusively white men. The tragic Triangle Waist Factory fire in 1911 resulted in the deaths of over a hundred young people, mostly immigrant girls, who were locked in the factory. Told from the perspective of six young women who lived the story, this book reminds us why what we buy and how we vote really matter.
