You know, this is some shit that I expect when dealing with some shady asshole on ebay, but LMG?
Bro... Are you ok?
I always wondered if Linus was actually a slimy POS, but this Billet Labs situation has cemented it for me. If you haven't watched the Gamers Nexus followup video, definitely watch it.
People seem to constantly underestimate how important logistics and inventory tracking really is
I work in the freight industry and I'm constantly finding shit that isn't labeled properly, packaged properly, or even put on the correct trailer. And that's just me as one dude on a loading dock with about 150 doors and about 40 people buzzing around on forklifts.
Literally last month I found half a dozen pallets ranging in cost from $1000 - $75000 that had been pushed deep into a storage area that freight isn't supposed to be near and had been misplaced over a year prior.
The only reason I found them was because I was investigating trying to find a pallet worth almost $200,000 that someone had misplaced the day before. It was in that area as well.
My guy, you deserve some kind of bonus!
It's weird how people don't care about things... I was asked to make a report of open accounts from the database for the sales team, which I did.
They didn't ask me to filter the data, so I made them a 2nd report, open accounts who had not done business with us year to date, had no problems with payment history, and had open lines of credit.
Over a million dollars in open credit from good customers just... you know... sitting there.
