Yeah that's right, for lunch i ate a scrumptious tongue. Still difficult to get over putting a dead animals tongue in my mouth, but once i do...mmm...mmm.mmmmm. Taste...hmmmm, that word seems so different now.
So it's day two. not much sleep last night as my dreams were competing with the bottle rockets and firecrackers for fiesta de san juan. no idea the reason, but it was on, even though they try to prohibit the fireworks due to the cloud of smog that hung around all day today.
The factory however sits on a hill overlooking the smog so it was clear breathing for us. a great day to watch the workers...oh wait they're all drunk and skipping work for the morning. no problem. we consumed our morning with calculations. major hurdles overcome especially clarification of gas consumption...oh you mean the factory only consumes about 45,000 cubic meters of gas per month not 1,800,000 ? Great. it was nice to be given a few duties from durk in the mathematics department and get some good technical explanations from him...next step was to butcher them with my spanish.
spent much of the afternoon watching the workers straggle in and going over details of production and charging the furnace. how to gather out of the furnace in order not to trap bubbles. why it is bad to put 200 kilos of cold glass into the furnace in one go.
anyway, most importantly i had my first opportunity to gather out of the furnace today. it felt great. gonna see if i can take advantage of an open bench here and there over the next few days.
oh yeah, for the nerds here's a bit of info to get you started:
