Before I start on this - I currently don’t have the time or the muscles to get this plan into order so please consider this chicken feed to consider and I wouldn’t be the muscle to implement this. I would think this concept would be a larger decisions outside of just Team Logistics and it would also take additional organization to get the plan rolling but I believe the change in culture would be worth it.
I would like to hear feedback on changing the concept of off-site storage and ownership of left materials for DMS.
My proposal is that items, tools, “stuff” is marked with a specifically colored sticker (March-yellow April-pink etc) denoting the month the items were placed in storage. After three (or place a number of months in here) months of storage the ownership of the unclaimed item becomes DMS property to be dealt with as DMS feels in the best interest of DMS (insert leagleeze here). 3X a year we hold a sale of left items to benefit two things - the fund to pay for the storage unit(s) and extra money to go to the maker scholarship fund.
This would be a huge shift I think and something to discuss before implementing.
Questions:
- How much is our monthly storage fee?
- What problems does this plan create?
- What problems does this plan solve?
- Is it feasible?
- Is the reward worth the work?
- You’ve found the golden goose with is idea!
- The idea needs some revision, but is worth considering
- Not something that could work at makerspace - but keep on typing ideas out on your computer for other people you lush
- Throw this crap out
