Yes. And most unbelievable are the cages some of those beancounters build around their 'scrap'.
I bet they get off on the sight of drooling engineers and technicians at those sites, sitting with pervert grins and telling off any offer of money with a ugly sadist 'noooOO!'. :box: :box: :box: :horse:

I stood with a colleague in front of one such cage. On top of other stuff there were about ten immaculate CII (pre-Tyco!) vacuum relais freshly chucked in. Two days earlier, I saved the same company hundreds of bucks when that cage was open and I discovered that some other department threw away Pomona 4mm shorting plugs /bridges en masse that I was about to order anew.

I can only agree... Although I have tongue cramps from trying to pronounce it out loud.
I've been at it for years, going where I shouldn't be because when I act like a civilised animal I (almost) always get a straight "NO". (That's without asking too often, the right approach could be to ask 4-5 times a day until the idiots give-up.)
I must admit ther's a little adrenaline involved in the "Fuck you too!" process of going for forbidden trash treasures, besides I do have a slight case of TEA and electro-junk addiction in general.
Where it really gets disgusting is that it's the same way with so many things other than T.E., a minority of wasteful idiots decide goods are going to be destroyed, while that happens the average consumer is being eco-brainwashed into thinking the planet needs saving. (That comes at a cost for the consumer of course... Let me laugh, who cares for ecology?)
