background: i work for a company as a maintenance technician and recently took over the operations of our warehouse from someone that left it a wreck.

i have to get rid of old equipment given to the warehouse to dispose of. there is an unknown quantity of equipment. ~enough to fill a warehouse. each piece needs to be tagged with a type of barcoded document with information about it in order to be received by the disposal facility. a portion of these forms have been made but have not been attached. i will need to make and attach the rest of these documents but do not know how many.

how can i most efficiently sort these items? the goal is that i can tell my boss how much time it will take and then fill enough trucks to have all the materials disposed of.

this is actually the bane of my existence and costing my warehouse greatly. i would greatly appreciate, as the problem could make or break the operation.

i work at a research institute where researchers and lab techs use uncalibrated equipment, pull code tags off units, buy new units to replace malfunctioning ones (user error), and generally just blatantly disregard, disrespect and belittle me a the other techs at no end.

command doesn’t give af. i made an ig report (cmdp) and nothing happened. soldiers are being tested in research with bad cals and no electrical safety (my boss demands that we don’t). some have started contacting manufacturers and scheduling services for their equipment without telling us, causing double bookings and more waisted funds.

question: how do i ruin everything for everyone and make them hate their lives as much as i hate them? preferably at the federal level..
