    As much as I understand and hate corporate bullshit…

    I… really struggle to see how that would make sense in this scenario.

    Unless they got a memo from corporate that was like Fallout universe levels of maliciously evil, like oh actually just uh yeah its now corporate policy to manually deactivate all emergency stop functionality for the oven, because too many people keep hitting the button accidentally…

    If that was the case, then corporate, the people who issued that directive, are now directly liable for this, like, criminally.

    Usually corporate isn’t that fucking stupid, they just imprecisely pressure the local management to ‘solve the accidental baking stoppage problem’ and then its up to the manager to, you know do the sane thing and retrain the bakery people, or hire more competent ones…

    …or do something insane like ‘just fucking disable the emergency stop button’, and then the manager takes the blame because well corporate did not and would never direct an employee to violate critical safety standards.
