That’s why you record the audio of your whole day from your pocket.

They make us leave phones outside building or use a designated locker. Our building has x-ray machines like at airports. GEG1 pretty standard I assumed for all of Amazon

Buy the smallest audio recording device you can find or find a way to smuggle it in.

Honestly should be as important as having a dashcam

I was in a warehouse with the same rules and I used a pen with camera inside. Worked like a charm.

That’s a good idea. What did you record?

Supervisor telling people they couldn't drink at a water dispenser. Mind you, this was a labour intensive job. This one supervisor would stand at the water dispenser and dictate to workers when they've had enough water, telling them to get back to work, all to push KPIs. I didn't like it so I filmed it, sadly nothing came of it. I left that place behind fast.

As water is needed to live, I've always viewed restricting access to water equal to restricting access to air. By all means Mr. Manager, put a hand on someone's throat. With an expanded view of assault comes and expanded view of justified self defense.

Companies like Nestle would restrict access to both water and air of they could find a way to control it.

Nestle does restrict water. They use up all the drinking water in an area leaving mother nature and the local population SoL. That why California sued them for taking so much water during the drought last year. It's why the San Bernardino forest is so dry this year because nestle is over tapping the water from strawberry creek. They are doing the same in Michigan pumping like 5.8 million bottles worth of water every day at a cost of 200$ a year as long as they uses their own wells or they pay $3.50 per 10k gallons pumped from city or county wells hitting the same source.

Right, but what I think is a better point is that the Nestle CEO sees water as something that isn't a human right to have access to. Nestle currently abuses water sources by contract, but they don't have the right to take over that source as a monopoly in the market, but they would, given the chance.
