I'm glad I got out of high school just before they started all this crap in the name of safety.
I can just imagine a cop sitting at the monitors panning the camera as teenage ass passes by.
I work third shift and I barely see the sun. Maybe an hour or two every day. Working 9:00 PM to 5:30 AM. Go home. Go to sleep around 7:30 or 8:00 (maybe see the sun for an hour). Wake up around 4:00. See the sun for maybe an hour or two. Go to work.
I hate the heat, but I love the summer. I actually feel normal when I can see the sun now and then.
Maybe you're talking about during the day while sleeping. Well I have blinds and heavy curtains for that.
I work at a warehouse for a retail company with thousands of stores. My warehouse supplies about 400 stores. Our system lets us send individual items as well as entire cases.
This system looks useful for small orders, but for large orders it actually looks rather slow to me. We use a conveyor system, but do not keep the boxes on the main belt. Instead they are kept on rollers, and when finished are then placed onto the system. I haven't been to many other warehouses, so I don't know how they work, but in ours there is very little searching around for product. The order pickers just move down a long aisle of racks with a printout of the store's order. This is of course all in numerical order and designed for zero backtracking until a single store is filled.
This robot system just looks like it makes things easier. Not more efficient and definitely not faster.
