  all,
• 1:43
  I
• 1:43
  have

  to
• 1:43
  say
• 1:43
  I
• 1:44
  love
• 1:44

  it's
• 1:46
  a
• 1:46
  hair
• 1:46
  straightener
• 1:47
  holding
• 1:47
  a
• 1:48
  ruler.
• 1:48
  Not
• 1:49
  what
• 1:49
  I
• 1:49
  thought
• 1:49
  of.
• 1:50
  And
• 1:50
  I'm
• 1:50
  also
• 1:50
  surprised
• 1:51
  that
• 1:51
  the
• 1:51

  what
• 1:52
  a
• 1:52
  hair
• 1:53
  straightener
• 1:53
  is.
• 1:53
  That
• 1:54
  seems
• 1:54
  very
• 1:54
  off
• 1:54
  brand.
• 1:55
  Do
• 1:55
  you
• 1:55
  know
• 1:55
  what
• 1:55
  a
• 1:55
  hair
• 1:55
  straightener.
• 1:56
  Let
• 1:56
  me
• 1:56
  ask
• 1:57
  you
• 1:57
  this.
• 1:57
  Who
• 1:57
  came
• 1:57
  up
• 1:57
  with
• 1:57
  that
• 1:58
  description?
• 1:58
  Description?
• 1:58
  Was
• 1:58
  it
• 1:58
  a
• 1:59
  dude
• 1:59
  or
• 1:59
  a
• 1:59
  woman?
• 1:59
  Like,
• 2:00
  it
• 2:00
  was
• 2:00
  probably
• 2:00
  a
• 2:00
  dude.
• 2:01
  It
• 2:01
  was
• 2:01
  100
• 2:02
  a
• 2:02
  dude,
• 2:02
  right?
• 2:02
  Like
• 2:03
  a
• 2:03
  hair
• 2:03
  straightener
• 2:03
  with
• 2:03
  a
• 2:04
  ruler?
• 2:04
  I
• 2:04
  think
• 2:04
  so,
• 2:05
  yeah.
• 2:05
  Oh,
• 2:05
  I
• 2:05
  would
• 2:05
  think
• 2:06
  the
• 2:06
  opposite.
• 2:06
  Do
• 2:06
  you
• 2:07
  know
• 2:07
  what
• 2:07
  a
• 2:07
  hair
• 2:07
  straightener
• 2:08
  looks
• 2:08
  like?
• 2:08
  Like,
• 2:08
  do
• 2:08
  you
• 2:09
  think
• 2:09
  the
• 2:09
  average
• 2:09
  man
• 2:10
  knows
• 2:10
  what
• 2:10
  a
• 2:10
  hair
• 2:11
  straightener
• 2:11
  looks
• 2:11
  like?
• 2:12
  Yeah.
• 2:12
  Yeah.
• 2:12
  Is
• 2:12
  it
• 2:13
  actually
• 2:13
  a
• 2:13
  hair
• 2:13
  straightener?
• 2:14
  Yeah,
• 2:14
  I
• 2:14
  guess
• 2:14
  it
• 2:14
  is
• 2:14
  a
• 2:14
  hair
• 2:15
  straightener
• 2:15
  too,
• 2:15
  versus
• 2:16
  a
• 2:16
  curler,
• 2:17
  right?
• 2:18
  Yes.
• 2:18
  This
• 2:18
  is
• 2:18
  what
• 2:19
  I'm
• 2:19
  talking
• 2:19
  about.
• 2:19
  This
• 2:20
  is.
• 2:20
  I
• 2:20
  don't
• 2:20
  know.
• 2:20
  That's
• 2:20
  why
• 2:21
  I'm
• 2:21
  like,
• 2:21
  maybe,
• 2:22
  maybe
• 2:22
  it's
• 2:22
  somebody
• 2:23
  else.
• 2:23
  Anyway,
• 2:24
  that's
• 2:24
  beside
• 2:25
  the
• 2:25
  point.
• 2:25
  But
• 2:25
  I
• 2:25
  just
• 2:25
  love
• 2:26
  that
• 2:26
  description
• 2:26
  because
• 2:27
  I
• 2:27
  thought
• 2:28
  that's
• 2:28
  not.
• 2:28
  Does
• 2:29
  not
• 2:29
  sound
• 2:29
  like
• 2:29
  it's
• 2:29
  coming
• 2:30
  from
• 2:30
  Amazon.
• 2:30
  It's
• 2:31
  very,
• 2:32
  like
• 2:32
  something
• 2:33
  for
• 2:33
  the
• 2:33
  common
• 2:34
  person
• 2:34
  to
• 2:34
  understand.
• 2:36
  Very
• 2:36
  pr.
• 2:37
  Very
• 2:37
  PR
• 2:38
  teased.
• 2:38
  So.
• 2:38
  Yes,
• 2:39
  yes.
• 2:41
  But
• 2:41
  what
• 2:41
  I
• 2:42
  do
• 2:42
  think
• 2:42
  is
• 2:43
  interesting
• 2:43
  and
• 2:44
  why
• 2:44
  I
• 2:44
  do
• 2:44
  think
• 2:44
  that
• 2:45
  the
• 2:45
  hullabaloo
• 2:45
  is
• 2:45
  warranted
• 2:46
  is,
• 2:46
  is
• 2:46
  really
• 2:47
  kind
• 2:48
  of
• 2:48
  coming
• 2:48
  into
• 2:48
  the
• 2:48
  fore
• 2:49
  a
• 2:49
  little
• 2:49
  bit
• 2:49
  more
• 2:49
  even
• 2:50
  since
• 2:50
  we
• 2:50
  got
• 2:51
  here
• 2:51
  to
• 2:51
  World
• 2:52
  Retail
• 2:52
  Congress.
• 2:52
  And
• 2:52
  I
• 2:52
  think
• 2:53
  that
• 2:53
  that's
• 2:53
  because
• 2:54
  we're
• 2:54
  hearing
• 2:55
  a
• 2:55
  lot
• 2:55
  of
• 2:55
  talk
• 2:55
  about
• 2:56
  investing
• 2:56
  in
• 2:56
  automation
• 2:57
  because
• 2:58
  it's
• 2:58
  one
• 2:58
  of
• 2:58
  the
• 2:59
  things
• 2:59
  that
• 2:59
  can
• 2:59
  help
• 3:00
  operations
• 3:00
  run
• 3:01
  more
• 3:01
  efficiently.
• 3:02
  And
• 3:02
  that's
• 3:03
  something
• 3:03
  that
• 3:03
  retailers
• 3:04
  have
• 3:04
  control
• 3:04
  over
• 3:05
  in
• 3:05
  a
• 3:05
  very
• 3:06
  uncertain
• 3:06
  time
• 3:07
  when
• 3:07
  it
• 3:07
  comes
• 3:07
  to
• 3:07
  supply
• 3:08
  chain
• 3:09
  economic
• 3:10
  activity
• 3:10
  and
• 3:11
  disruption
• 3:11
  and
• 3:11
  all
• 3:11
  of
• 3:12
  these
• 3:12
  things.
• 3:12
  So
• 3:12
  I
• 3:13
  do
• 3:13
  like
• 3:14
  that
• 3:14
  Amazon
• 3:15
  is
• 3:15
  pushing
• 3:15
  further
• 3:15
  to
• 3:16
  figure
• 3:16
  out
• 3:16
  how
• 3:16
  we
• 3:17
  can
• 3:17
  optimize
• 3:18
  all
• 3:18
  of
• 3:19
  our,
• 3:19
  our,
• 3:20
  our
• 3:20
  warehouse
• 3:21
  operations
• 3:22
  so
• 3:22
  that
• 3:22
  we
• 3:22
  can
• 3:23
  utilize
• 3:23
  our
• 3:23
  human
• 3:24
  workforce
• 3:25
  in
• 3:25
  a
• 3:25
  way
• 3:25
  that
• 3:25
  makes
• 3:26
  the
• 3:26
  most
• 3:26
  sense
• 3:26
  and
• 3:27
  that
• 3:27
  will
• 3:27
  be
• 3:27
  most
• 3:28
  advantageous
• 3:29
  to
• 3:29
  our
• 3:29
  business
• 3:29
  going
• 3:29
  forward.
• 3:30
  So
• 3:30
  that's,
• 3:31
  I
• 3:31
  do
• 3:31
  think
• 3:32
  that
• 3:32
  this
• 3:32
  is
• 3:32
  really
• 3:32
  cool
• 3:33
  in
• 3:33
  that
• 3:33
  regard
• 3:34
  and
• 3:34
  if
• 3:34
  they
• 3:34
  can
• 3:34
  continue
• 3:35
  to,
• 3:35
  you
• 3:36
  know,
• 3:36
  make
• 3:36
  sure.
• 3:36
  I
• 3:36
  mean,
• 3:36
  it's,
• 3:37
  it's
• 3:37
  really
• 3:37
  fascinating.
• 3:37
  I
• 3:38
  encourage
• 3:38
  people
• 3:38
  to
• 3:38
  watch
• 3:38
  the
• 3:39
  video
• 3:39
  because
• 3:39
  it's
• 3:39
  showing
• 3:40
  like,
• 3:40
  you
• 3:40
  know,
• 3:40
  they,
• 3:41
  it
• 3:41
  knows
• 3:42
  how
• 3:42
  hard
• 3:42
  to
• 3:42
  squeeze
• 3:43
  a
• 3:43
  product.
• 3:43
  Like,
• 3:44
  you're
• 3:44
  reducing
• 3:45
  damages.
• 3:45
  You
• 3:45
  have
• 3:46
  control
• 3:46
  over
• 3:46
  that.
• 3:46
  And
• 3:47
  those
• 3:47
  are
• 3:47
  things
• 3:48
  that
• 3:48
  you
• 3:48
  really
• 3:48
  have
• 3:48
  to
• 3:49
  train
• 3:49
  people
• 3:49
  on
• 3:50
  to
• 3:50
  do
• 3:51
  to
• 3:51
  make
• 3:51
  sure
• 3:51
  how
• 3:51
  to
• 3:51
  do
• 3:52
  this
• 3:52
  the
• 3:52
  correct
• 3:52
  way.
• 3:53
  So
• 3:53
  if
• 3:53
  you
• 3:53
  can,
• 3:53
  if
• 3:53
  you
• 3:54
  can
• 3:54
  standardize
• 3:55
  this,
• 3:55
  I
• 3:55
  think
• 3:56
  that
• 3:56
  with,
• 3:56
  with
• 3:57
  automation,
• 3:57
  I
• 3:58
  think
• 3:58
  that's
• 3:58
  the
• 3:58
  way
• 3:58
  to
• 3:59
  go
• 3:59
  here.
• 3:59
  But,
• 4:00
  but
• 4:00
  are
• 4:01
  you
• 4:01
  all
• 4:01
  in
• 4:01
  on
• 4:02
  Vulcan?
• 4:02
  I
• 4:02
  can't
• 4:02
  even
• 4:03
  make
• 4:03
  the
• 4:03
  sign,
• 4:03
  Chris.
• 4:04
  Yeah,
• 4:04
  not
• 4:04
  everyone
• 4:05
  can
• 4:05
  do
• 4:05
  that.
• 4:05
  Yes.
• 4:05
  Not
• 4:06
  everyone
• 4:06
  can
• 4:06
  do
• 4:06
  the
• 4:06
  V.
• 4:06
  Yeah,
• 4:07
  I
• 4:07
  mean,
• 4:07
  the
• 4:07
  other
• 4:07
  point
• 4:07
  too,
• 4:07
  I
• 4:08
  just
• 4:08
  make
• 4:08
  is
• 4:08
  like,
• 4:08
  you
• 4:08
  know,
• 4:08
  it's,
• 4:09
  it's,
• 4:09
  it's
• 4:09
  something
• 4:09
  that
• 4:10
  humans
• 4:10
  just
• 4:10
  traditionally
• 4:11
  do
• 4:11
  better
• 4:11
  than
• 4:11
  a
• 4:11
  robot,
• 4:12
  you
• 4:12
  know,
• 4:12
  regardless
• 4:13
  of
• 4:13
  training.
• 4:13
  Like,
• 4:13
  it's
• 4:13
  just
• 4:13
  we
• 4:14
  have
• 4:14
  the
• 4:14
  dexterity
• 4:15
  and
• 4:15
  the,
• 4:16
  the
• 4:16
  ability
• 4:16
  to
• 4:16
  do
• 4:17
  this
• 4:17
  in
• 4:17
  a
• 4:17
  way
• 4:17
  robots
• 4:18
  can.
• 4:18
  So
• 4:18
  it's
• 4:19
  been
• 4:19
  something
• 4:19
  that
• 4:19
  people
• 4:19
  have
• 4:20
  been
• 4:20
  trying
• 4:20
  to
• 4:20
  crack
• 4:20
  the
• 4:20
  code
• 4:21
  on
• 4:21
  for
• 4:21
  a
• 4:21
  while.
• 4:21
  But,
• 4:22
  you
• 4:22
  know,
• 4:22
  I,
• 4:22
  I
• 4:23
  do
• 4:23
  want
• 4:23
  to
• 4:23
  go
• 4:23
  on
• 4:23
  a
• 4:23
  little
• 4:23
  bit
• 4:24
  of
• 4:24
  a
• 4:24
  rant
• 4:24
  here
• 4:24
  on,
• 4:24
  like,
• 4:25
  why
• 4:25
  are
• 4:25
  these
• 4:25
  names
• 4:25
  so
• 4:26
  dorky?
• 4:26
  Like,
• 4:27
  why
• 4:27
  can't
• 4:27
  we
• 4:27
  ever
• 4:27
  name
• 4:28
  things
• 4:28
  that,
• 4:28
  why
• 4:28
  do
• 4:29
  they
• 4:29
  always
• 4:29
  have
• 4:29
  to
• 4:29
  name
• 4:30
  things
• 4:30
  after
• 4:30
  sci
• 4:30
  fi
• 4:31
  Things?
• 4:31
  Like,
• 4:31
  why
• 4:31
  can't
• 4:31
  we
• 4:31
  name
• 4:31
  things
• 4:32
  after
• 4:32
  characters
• 4:32
  from
• 4:32
  like,
• 4:33
  Charlotte's
• 4:33
  Web
• 4:33
  or
• 4:34
  Anne
• 4:34
  of
• 4:34
  Green
• 4:35
  Gables?
• 4:35
  And
• 4:36
  like,
• 4:36
  why
• 4:36
  does
• 4:36
  it
• 4:36
  have
• 4:37
  to
• 4:37
  Always
• 4:37
  be
• 4:37
  like
• 4:37
  Vulcan
• 4:38
  or,
• 4:38
  you
• 4:39
  know,
• 4:39
  Jedi
• 4:40
  or
• 4:40
  so,
• 4:40
  you
• 4:40
  know,
• 4:40
  I
• 4:41
  just.
• 4:41
  Anyway,
• 4:41
  but.
• 4:42
  But
• 4:42
  net,
• 4:43
  are
• 4:43
  you
• 4:43
  surprised?
• 4:43
  I
• 4:44
  mean,
• 4:44
  I'm
• 4:44
  not
• 4:45
  surprised.
• 4:45
  How
• 4:45
  many
• 4:45
  Big
• 4:46
  bang
• 4:46
  theories
• 4:46
  have
• 4:46
  you
• 4:47
  watched?
• 4:47
  You
• 4:47
  know
• 4:47
  this.
• 4:47
  I
• 4:48
  just
• 4:48
  get
• 4:48
  so
• 4:48
  tired
• 4:48
  of
• 4:48
  it
• 4:49
  too.
• 4:49
  Same
• 4:49
  with
• 4:49
  all
• 4:49
  the
• 4:49
  tech
• 4:50
  company
• 4:50
  names
• 4:50
  like
• 4:50
  Penetrabe
• 4:51
  and
• 4:51
  In
• 4:51
  a
• 4:51
  Trobe
• 4:52
  and
• 4:52
  all
• 4:52
  that
• 4:52
  kind
• 4:52
  of
• 4:52
  stuff.
• 4:53
  You
• 4:53
  know,
• 4:53
  it's
• 4:54
  the
• 4:54
  same.
• 4:54
  It's
• 4:54
  the
• 4:54
  same
• 4:54
  realm,
• 4:55
  but.
• 4:55
  But
• 4:55
  net.
• 4:55
  Net,
• 4:56
  I
• 4:57
  think
• 4:57
  it's
• 4:57
  big
• 4:57
  news
• 4:57
  because
• 4:58
  like,
• 4:58
  you
• 4:58
  know,
• 4:58
  like
• 4:59
  we
• 4:59
  just
• 4:59
  talked
• 4:59
  about
• 4:59
  it.
• 5:00
  Expand.
• 5:00
  It
• 5:00
  expands
• 5:01
  the
• 5:01
  range
• 5:01
  of
• 5:02
  items
• 5:02
  that
• 5:02
  can
• 5:02
  be
• 5:02
  picked
• 5:03
  mechanically.
• 5:03
  Yes,
• 5:04
  but
• 5:04
  it
• 5:05
  does
• 5:05
  it
• 5:05
  in
• 5:05
  a
• 5:05
  warehouse.
• 5:06
  That's
• 5:06
  the
• 5:06
  point
• 5:06
  I
• 5:06
  would
• 5:07
  make
• 5:07
  on
• 5:07
  the
• 5:08
  second
• 5:08
  part
• 5:08
  of
• 5:08
  a
• 5:09
  question,
• 5:09
  which
• 5:09
  is
• 5:09
  where
• 5:09
  does
• 5:10
  this
• 5:10
  begin
• 5:10
  and
• 5:10
  end?
• 5:10
  Because
• 5:11
  for
• 5:11
  the
• 5:11
  record,
• 5:12
  after
• 5:12
  last
• 5:13
  week's
• 5:13
  headlines,
• 5:14
  we
• 5:14
  got
• 5:14
  a
• 5:14
  lot
• 5:14
  of
• 5:14
  commentary
• 5:15
  on
• 5:15
  social
• 5:15
  media
• 5:16
  from
• 5:16
  what
• 5:16
  I
• 5:17
  would
• 5:17
  call
• 5:17
  some
• 5:18
  trolls,
• 5:18
  so
• 5:18
  to
• 5:18
  speak,
• 5:19
  about
• 5:19
  in
• 5:19
  store
• 5:20
  robots
• 5:20
  taking
• 5:20
  workers
• 5:21
  jobs
• 5:21
  for
• 5:22
  restocking.
• 5:23
  And
• 5:23
  that
• 5:23
  is
• 5:24
  not
• 5:25
  going
• 5:25
  to
• 5:25
  happen
• 5:26
  anytime
• 5:27
  soon.
• 5:27
  Like
• 5:27
  for
• 5:27
  that
• 5:28
  to
• 5:28
  happen,
• 5:28
  a
• 5:28
  lot
• 5:29
  of
• 5:29
  things
• 5:29
  need
• 5:29
  to
• 5:29
  come
• 5:29
  together
• 5:30
  and
• 5:30
  this
• 5:31
  whole
• 5:31
  concept
• 5:31
  is
• 5:32
  just,
• 5:32
  just
• 5:33
  taking
• 5:33
  shape
• 5:33
  in
• 5:34
  what
• 5:34
  is
• 5:34
  two
• 5:34
  warehouses
• 5:35
  that
• 5:35
  Amazon
• 5:36
  runs
• 5:36
  throughout
• 5:37
  the
• 5:37
  world.
• 5:37
  Yeah.
• 5:38
  So
• 5:38
  I
• 5:38
  mean,
• 5:38
  for
• 5:38
  that,
• 5:39
  for
• 5:39
  us
• 5:39
  to
• 5:39
  get
• 5:39
  to
• 5:39
  that
• 5:39
  eventuality
• 5:40
  of
• 5:40
  this
• 5:40
  hitting
• 5:41
  in
• 5:41
  store
• 5:41
  reshocking
• 5:42
  and
• 5:42
  shelves,
• 5:43
  shelving
• 5:43
  processes.
• 5:44
  You
• 5:45
  know,
• 5:45
  I'm
• 5:45
  thinking
• 5:45
  we're
• 5:46
  at
• 5:46
  least
• 5:46
  20
• 5:46
  years
• 5:46
  out
• 5:47
  on
• 5:47
  that
• 5:47
  at
• 5:47
  best.
• 5:47
  Maybe
• 5:48
  somebody
• 5:48
  knows
• 5:48
  better
• 5:48
  than
• 5:48
  I
• 5:49
  do.
• 5:49
  Yeah,
• 5:50
  I
• 5:50
  think
• 5:50
  we're,
• 5:50
  I
• 5:51
  think
• 5:51
  before
• 5:51
  we
• 5:51
  see
• 5:52
  that
• 5:52
  at
• 5:52
  scale
• 5:53
  across
• 5:53
  the
• 5:53
  industry,
• 5:54
  at
• 5:54
  least,
• 5:54
  I
• 5:54
  think.
• 5:54
  Oh,
• 5:55
  it's
• 5:55
  scale
• 5:55
  across
• 5:55
  the
• 5:55
  industry.
• 5:56
  Yeah.
• 5:56
  I
• 5:56
  mean,
• 5:56
  like
• 5:57
  it's
• 5:57
  going
• 5:57
  to
• 5:57
  be
• 5:57
  a
• 5:57
  long
• 5:58
  time.
• 5:58
  At
• 5:58
  least
• 5:58
  10.
• 5:59
  You
• 5:59
  know,
• 5:59
  you
• 5:59
  got
• 5:59
  to
• 5:59
  go
• 6:00
  10
• 6:00
  to
• 6:00
  20
• 6:00
  years
• 6:00
  on
• 6:01
  that.
• 6:01
  I
• 6:01
  mean,
• 6:02
  so,
• 6:02
  you
• 6:02
  know,
• 6:02
  so,
• 6:03
  you
• 6:04
  know,
• 6:04
  but
• 6:04
  it
• 6:04
  works.
• 6:05
  You
• 6:05
  have
• 6:05
  to
• 6:05
  hit
• 6:05
  scale
• 6:06
  in
• 6:06
  the
• 6:06
  warehouse
• 6:07
  first
• 6:07
  because
• 6:07
  that's
• 6:08
  where
• 6:08
  the
• 6:08
  operation
• 6:08
  is
• 6:08
  more
• 6:09
  repetitive
• 6:10
  and
• 6:10
  repeatable.
• 6:10
  It's
• 6:11
  done
• 6:11
  the
• 6:11
  same
• 6:11
  way
• 6:11
  every
• 6:11
  time.
• 6:12
  Stocking
• 6:12
  a
• 6:12
  shelf
• 6:13
  is
• 6:13
  anything
• 6:13
  but.
• 6:13
  That's
• 6:13
  why
• 6:14
  I'm
• 6:14
  taking
• 6:14
  the
• 6:14
  long,
• 6:14
  the
• 6:15
  long
• 6:15
  view
• 6:15
  of
• 6:16
  this,
• 6:16
  you
• 6:16
  know,
• 6:16
  in
• 6:16
  terms
• 6:16
  of
• 6:17
  the
• 6:17
  full
• 6:17
  impact
• 6:17
  of
• 6:17
  the
• 6:17
  industry.
• 6:18
  But
• 6:18
  I
• 6:18
  think
• 6:18
  in
• 6:18
  warehousing
• 6:19
  it's,
• 6:19
  it's
• 6:19
  probably
• 6:19
  due
• 6:19
  to
• 6:20
  come
• 6:20
  here,
• 6:20
  you
• 6:21
  know,
• 6:21
  fairly
• 6:21
  soon.
• 6:22
  You
• 6:22
  know,
• 6:22
  should
• 6:22
  Amazon
• 6:23
  and
• 6:23
  others
• 6:23
  like
• 6:24
  we've
• 6:24
  seen
• 6:24
  try
• 6:24
  to
• 6:24
  do
• 6:24
  this
• 6:24
  in
• 6:24
  the
• 6:25
  past,
• 6:25
  get,
• 6:25
  get
• 6:25
  traction
• 6:26
  with
• 6:26
  it?
• 6:26
  Well,
• 6:27
  I'll
• 6:27
  take
• 6:27
  the
• 6:27
