tl;dr – they let a guy die of a heart attack because calling 911 wasn’t in their standard operating manual. They had cases for automatic defibrillators everywhere in the warehouse, but the cases were empty. (Do you know how much those things cost?) After 20 minutes they call 911. Don’t route the ambulance to the nearest door – SOP again you have to sign in – and by the time the EMTs get to him he’s gone.
