Poka Yoke - Mummy Style
It was 7:30 am. I woke up and groggily went for breakfast. As I headed towards the sofa, I couldn't help but notice that my mummy had perfectly implemented Poka Yoke (mistake proofing).
On the teapoy where I usually have my breakfast was my bottle of medicine(tonic I was supposed to have before breakfast). My breakfast was on a chair which was at a distance from the sofa where I usually sit. I couldn't have had my breakfast without having my medicine.
For the record, my mummy has no background in Operations, has not read The Toyota Way and am quite sure she doesn't know who Shigeo Shingo(the one who popularized Poka Yoke) is. Is she a natural at Operations Management? I wonder.
