I assume all would be reported by local news. The news loves fires.
I've worked at a large distribution center for a number of years and are familiar with the field. Low staff alone will kill lines, destroy equipment, put the center in danger. The warehouse I worked at was one of the largest built in it's time and during the time I worked there we had at least 10 fires, a couple were so bad I didn't think they would reopen the place....yet, within 48 hours we were back in business.
Now that I think about it...Fires are quite commonplace. I can recall at least 2 other fires at a sister center, one in which a cousin of mine was hospitalized.
I know a few people in management still. I'll call them later today and chat them up a bit. If I find out anything interesting I'll report back.
Thanks for sharing your experience.
I'm curious to see if there's a noticeable different from 3 years ago up until now.
Thanks. We can always take single points and make is sound bad, but knowing there is actually a spike and not some diversion or other kikery going on is great.
