I randomly met someone that worked for Tesla during a happy hour social thing. They were in some production safety role. They had just been dealing with something like this and were venting about it. I made a joke about how they were 'literally putting out fires' because some rack of lithium battery had been mishandled so badly that thermal runaway kicked off into a blaze. They just kept mentioning how this was not supposed to happen if safety protocols were being followed.

Reminded me a bit of a summer job I had a long time ago working for a fast food place that was very chaotic and mismanaged.
