There is a brand new Amazon distribution center in Windsor, CT. They just fired 200 employees 2 days ago.
Workers are sent home for lack of work regularly, b/c the automated, robotic equipment is breaking down.
Nah...they’re secretly outsourcing to drivers in Indian distribution centers.

This is why I have worked in the Industrial Automation field for 25 years. Employers just keep getting more and more desperate as my generation retires and no one steps up to learn to maintain automated machinery. I’ve been a supervisor of technicians for a while now, but I keep my skills sharp because there are days when you just don’t have enough techs to go around.
