Yep - it's not too bad as long as everything keeps flowing.

But - introduce a change to a part, or get out of sequence, or model change over: what a mess!

This really hits close to home this week; I'm in Wentzville, MO building future model year vans on the current production assembly line.

Holy crap! - what a mess. I've been doing this for 35 years and I'm still amazed we can put anything together at all....
