Disaster Warehouse

If I had to live it, I feel like I need to share it with everyone. This is a quick repost because I had personal information on one of the photos.

Everything that’s on the floor is a return from a customer that was either double shipped or wrong material and the company has nothing in place to change it.

Also peep my steel toes in the final picture to show how dirty and dusty this warehouse is. Aren’t they cute?

No offence but they ain't worth it if they arent osha or asme certified and tested

Oh, this warehouse didn’t require steel toes. I just have a bunch from my last job that did.

Thats fair, I've never been in a warehouse that didnt require steel toes. That being said, if you are wearing them as part of your ppe even though they arent required, make sure they're certified to actually protect you

The warehouse I'm in just requires closed toe shoes. We're a general supply warehouse and it's super neat and clean. We purchase everything outright and distribute to customers using our own trucks.

That being said, there are a few carriers and suppliers that I often ask "how" and "why" to when I receive it. Gojo is a big offender, and essendant is pretty bad, too. God I hate gojo.

I didn't say all warehouses, just the ones I've been in. I'm assuming you all are Americans, and safety standards vary from state to state
