[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What surprised you? Either in a good way or bad. Will you continue to be a customer?[/quote] For some reason I was surprised by how genuinely kind and decent nearly everyone I met there was. Some would jump from their station (risking a warning for being off task and hurting their pick rate) to help me a newbie. I was also surprised by what was clearly working poverty amongst the older adults working there. A number of the 40 plus year old workers had scars on the crook of their arms from what I found out was from donating plasma so much. They do it to make ends meet because the $500 per week wasn’t enough. I was also surprised by how minimal training was even for people operating fork lifts. Training is a day and a half and they get licensed to lift heavy pallets dozens of feet up onto shelving. As for being a customer I will probably try to avoid using them if I can and will always think twice before ordering something heavy. [/quote]
