The manufacturing plant I work at has a huge grassy lot behind it that has been...well, a huge grassy lot since before the plant was built in 1957. Over the years, the company softball team has played there, and there was once a small pavilion for outdoor barbecues. Since it's on private property surrounded by barbed-wire fences (which I know aren't insurmountable), it hasn't had a whole lot of people traffic. Even the softball games, I'm told, were limited to one corner of the field. So this week, thinking it'd be a great opportunity I (with the encouragement of my department) stashed my MD in my office and set out each day after work.
When you see the pictures you'll understand why I say it's too virgin:
These are 2 legacy flow controllers produced by my company in the 1990s
Found them about fourteen inches down, the only reason I bothered is that the dirt was soft lol
(no one in my department seems to know how they got there.....
)
The saw was buried about 2 inches down, 3 feet from the flow controllers
I have no idea what those name tags could have been for, and they weren't in the same hole.
The other thing is a Warning! tag reminding the operator to disconnect the power before disassembly.
The spoon, name tags, and warning plate were in the same corner of this field.
I'm not finished with the place yet - still got about half of it left, and that will be my task for next week. I've only found a nickel and 5 memorial pennies, which is what has surprised me the most.
