Ummmm...
Today we had to move one of the computers to a different location in the building. Normally, this would be a simple task, but it was moving to a location that had never been a station before. So when I went to make sure the ethernet outlet had connectivity to the internet I discovered it did not. Oh what to do? Heading off to the server room I found the label marked for that outlet and saw that it was not connected to the hub where all of our cable comes from. So I simply plugged it in. I am so thankful for labels.
We can apply the concept of marking cords for what they are and the changes we make to them to the way we log our orders for our company. Without the information being logged about a phone call where the customer wanted red material color on his name badges instead of blue, we would inevitably produce the wrong badges. So keep track of information no matter what you are doing. From wires coming out of holes in the wall to the current order awaiting fulfillment!
