User ID: 84369183 United States 05/28/2023 09:16 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | That's so sad and needless. All freezers built for the last 60 years have an escape feature mandated in the design. You just push on the big steel plunger at the door latch and the door opens from the inside, regardless of anything else on the latch. You hit the big plunger with the palm of your hand and the door opens. I believe it will even open if there is a padlock on the outside of the latch. It stands to reason this would happen to an immigrant, who was likely not aware of the feature or trained on it. I believe the instructions are also written on the darn thing.

User ID: 85411094 United States 05/28/2023 11:00 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A new lawsuit reveals the heartbreaking details surrounding an Arby’s manager who allegedly froze to death in the walk-in freezer of a Louisiana restaurant. Quoting: HAWK-03 The manager, Nguyet Le—a 63-year-old widow and mother-of-four—died on May 11 after becoming trapped in the long-faulty freezer while opening the restaurant. Her son, Nguyen, who also worked at the restaurant, discovered her body when he arrived later in the morning, according to the court documents. An investigative officer found blood inside the freezer door, leading him to conclude that Le “beat her hands bloody trying to escape or get someone’s attention,” the lawsuit reads. “Ultimately, she collapsed into a fetal position face down on the frozen floor.” [link to www.yahoo.com (secure)] She wasn't smart enough to unplug the units so she didn't freeze? Sad. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 85490426 United States 05/28/2023 11:49 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The staff there had been complaining about the door getting stuck and put in maintenance requests to corporate for weeks. This woman had no clue as she entered the store hours earlier doing her management duties. She wasn't a store worker, just a regional type manager. Her son deserves however much he gets. They should've replaced or repaired that freezer long before that happened and this would not have happened. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 85885927 United States 05/28/2023 12:23 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | you know what would be a smart device for a freezer ? Quoting: messagehalted A safety cut off switch inside to turn the freezers cooling unit off and only allow a fan. Sometimes safety plungers fail. That's good. An alarm and phone on the inside would be a good thing too. If she was younger, she'd have a cellphone glued to her body, so being stuck out of communication would be less likely. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 85885927 United States 05/28/2023 12:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Cell signals are surprisingly resilient to being encased in a Faraday cage. Even the slightest RF leakage at that wavelength can communicate with a tower. I've tried to isolate cellphones and it works to a degree. I've never tried it with a freezer. There's no reason that a freezer could not be easily and cheaply designed for cell signal passthrough. |

User ID: 84369183 United States 05/28/2023 12:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I wonder how easy/hard it would be to disable the freezer function from inside. Rip wire off thermostat or jumper it closed, not sure which way the logic works, or maybe find a control panel in there to mess with. Or just jam cardboard against all the areas where the cold emerges from. Might need a screwdriver or a knife or whatever to do. Justme |
