Re: Was there any disciplinary procedures in British R & TV factories?
You should see the depth of the burn mark in the side of my desoldering and soldering station at work!
I still don't know how the iron escaped from its holder while I was alone in the room and just across the room for a minute or so getting a couple of components.
But it has only done it once in over 10 years.
I always switch it off when leaving the room.
These things do happen very occasionally, which is why you and I take precautions so the consequences are not seriously dangerous.
A switched-off soldering iron melting just the lid of a socket made of fire-retardant plastic just once doesn't strike me as serious.
I doubt any reasonable person would disagree.
