March 1, 2005
No Comments
In the coating industry, masking has become a fundamental part of the design process. This is especially true for one small job shop in Ohio. Joe Lillicrap went from being a flight crew scheduler to making his own schedule about two years ago when the airline reduced its workforce, and Lillicrap lost his job.
