What's the difference between OFI and Obs?
It's actually terms one used in audit. If both require an action and closure, then why do we need to segregate between the both? Isn't it clear cut if we had just used one term instead or two? And if one is different from the other, then shouldn't we have different approach for both?
It's totally mind boggling when one got an OFI but being questioned like having an Obs. Worst is if the auditor is acting like a judge just trying to close the case but not understanding the whole picture first. As if reasons given are not valid at all, and all reasons are leading to same conclusion.
Jeez, now I understand why sometimes people just simply hate auditors, and why some people just find auditors annoying and time wasting.
Gosh, it must not be easy to become an auditor a.k.a judge. But at the same time, not everyone is suitable to be an auditor. Auditor not only requires knowledge of ISO and internal organization procedures, but also soft skills as well.
I wonder, if they can get auditors with good soft skills next time. It should be one of their selection criterias, as well.
No point losing mind over the baseless argument. End of the day, it doesn't really matter. It's just for record purpose anyway.
But one is sure to fire up, when it gets involved personally.
God bless.
