What's the over-under on whether Schart gets asked about improving employee safety in the wake of horrific stabbing mu---r on Charlotte's light rail? I've seen crazies wander into lobbies off the street while the fat "security" ladies did nothing but yell at them. At least other companies have security officers guarding external entrances.
And yes, I've already submitted my question on this subject.
@n3 you choose to work for Wells Fargo
Employee safety. Hmmm... They sponsored a webinar on dispelling coofid myths to get you to take the shot.
Charlie said "Do the smart thing; get the shot" (in other words, you're stupid if you don't).
So, yeah... Safety.
@nt sounds disgusting and dirty.
The light rail where the young woman was attacked and m*rdured is the same one that some employees take to work in Uptown Charlotte. Anyone could jump on the light rail without paying. In a separate event. A co-worker, after parking her vehicle in the early AM, said she had to step over a homeless person to get into a building. I will not walk Uptown alone.
That is a false equivalent. You mention safety in going to the store, restaurants, sports games. All of those are places we get to choose where and when to go. Your employer however sets your schedule and assigns your office location, often in dangerous downtown areas.
You seem to be making a false equivalency without acknowledging that we get to choose where to go to the store, school, or anything else on our own time. However our employer tells us what time and place we need to report for work, and often that means being required to go into dangerous downtown areas and often leaving work late at night. So yes, security is very much an employer responsibility.
As for the Tempe employee Prudhomme who wasn't found for almost 5 days, that is a classic example about why you shouldn't give your life to the company. The articles about her say that nobody put in a missing persons report. She literally gave her entire life to Wells Fargo, died for the company and because she gave up her family to work for WF, there was literally nobody who cared about her. WF replaced her the next day because business is business.
Don't be a fool and give your life to a corporation.
@fz and not one of those is about this crime event
Tell us you don't understand security or risk without telling us you don't understand security or risk. Not to mention BCP, enviro damage, the insane costs associated with maintaining useless buildings, the prevalence of HR issues related to in person work, and all the rest.
@et that argument only holds up if you never leave your house at all for personal reasons. Same thing could happen at the grocery store, restaurant, kids sports and/or the travel to and from.
I feel like safety is another one of those tangible benefits to justify allowing employees to work remotely!
@cd My previous employer would escort us to our cars or announce any security concerns around our area. They were concerned about our safety both coming to work or leaving work. It wasn’t just about the building security.
@dn Friday am went in they found her Tuesday pm. That’s almost five days sadly.
@e6 they are a deterrent, not a preventer
security guards are primarily security theater. would you be willing to put your life on the line for $20hr?
We already had one lady die in Tempe (not from mu---r, fair enough) and it took four fcking days for them to even find the body
And a horrible crime on public transit has to do with building security how exactly?
Follow BART for weekly mu---rs.
They opened a site in Texas, of course safety isn't a concern
I'd settle for job security
