While Im sure he does, I certainly cannot claim to know how operations are managed at this warehouse, or what tasks are assigned to the workers. The only specific thing he mentioned was that floor laborers had to make several hundred 70+lb lifts per shift.

No wonder they can't keep employees. That kind of physical labor for eight hours a day, five days a week would lead to some serious medical problems in fairly short order. Only someone young and in really good shape could do it for any length of time. "several hundred 70+lb lifts per shift" Sheesh! You'd think they could come up with some kind of equipment to do that kind of repetitive drudge work.
