We say warehouses are sexy.
If you can see my t-shirt.
And I've certainly heard 3PLs too that like, hey, we have robots and we roll them out for customer tours because it looks good, right?
We don't necessarily use them to their full ability, right?
Right now, the expectation is that, well, everybody else should be able to give me that speed.
Kind of a society we've lost a little patience, I will say.
There's going to be a lot of learnings and the learnings are going to come from a lot of missteps, failures, and probably cost too as well associated with that.
Absolutely.
Thanks for having me on and excited for the conversation today.
I am honored and privileged to be the first guest.
Thank you for the.
It was just my personal seeking more knowledge in the space.
My career was focused on the warehousing industry distribution and
fulfillment kind of landed in it unexpectedly after college at some point i was like you know what i need to uh learn more about this because i think this is probably going to be my career for some time and you know searched around started to look and you know i was used to to learning things from from blogs and forums and things like that and uh when it came to you know distribution warehousing stuff there was
nothing quite like that out there at the time this was like 2018 right kind of like maybe I'll start it myself ultimately that's how it ended up podcast began in 2019 is when our first episode came out and it was first like a self-discovery self-education tool for myself and then it started to
resonate with other people and kind of continued to snowball.
And then I found myself catering to others that were just like me in 2018 and, you know, helping them to create awareness around like what's happening in the industry and what's like possible in the industry too.
I don't know.
