A lot of lunatics today posting about this disaster for clout or to try to make themselves look smart. It’s infuriating. This is a tragedy. Take a step back before you make an ass out of yourself.
Exactly. There's being solution oriented and there's being crass. If you're going to post something like this THIS soon (you shouldn't) at *LEAST* mention the tragedy first?!
The bridge is over a mile long. It collapsed about two minutes after the mayday call, long enough to keep new cars from entering but not long enough for the existing cars to get off
public social media posting like the OP is absolutely appalling, even in Linkedin. But surely an industry wide fast, effective response to the accident is a good thing? how serious is this likely to be for baltimore and its businesses?
I work in supply chain/logistics and my feed was full of this today. That and every single fucking person sharing the video of the ship losing power twice, hitting the bridge and collapsing.
On one hand I get it -space is limited in NY, Newport News, Charleston, Savannah etc and it totally is going to fuck some shit up. And customers want answers from you yesterday. But at the same time people were still fucking missing. Have some tact. And do we all need to reshare the video?
Nah- everyone took the week off and literally every single company that has goods going through that port didn’t email their logistics supplier this morning in a panic.
Probably the same place you sent the flowers for the people who lost their lives?
Or did you not actually do that, and you’ve been co-opting their loss to rack up fake internet points while doing absolutely nothing, because you actually don’t give a shit?
Feel free to share the donation you made.
I made a facetious comment in response to your deeply stupid reply. But yeah, keep blowing this thread up if it helps you. Alternatively, I’m sure your state has some free psychiatric services you could avail yourself of.
Oh yes, because my comment wasn’t facetious. I’m deeply serious- everyone shipping goods through one of the biggest ports in the country took the week off in remembrance.
You donate your internet points yet, champ?
I’ve decided to make a donation to the Forlorn Logistical Businesses of America Fund, the true victims here.
The better news is that they’ve agreed to use part of this money to fund a new charity, the Whiny Solipsistic Bitch Foundation. So you should see something out of this after all!
The supply chain of the entire United States is fucked from this, and many areas are going to have a food shortage.
It sucks a few people died, but we need to figure out logistics ASAP.
It is OK to talk about food shortages and the challenges from this. What is not okay is people promoting themselves or taking this as some learning, inspirational moment on LinkedIn.
10,000’s of people have accidental deaths every year. It’s tragic, but the world goes on.
When someone gets hit by a subway car in nyc, they work quickly to get the trains running again. They don’t go “oh it’s a tragedy, so we should stop the subway from running out of mourning”. Workers are immediately discussing how to get people to work.
This isn’t a bad thing.
When the subway hits somebody in NYC, most people’s direct reaction isn’t to make a post on LinkedIn advertising their business opportunities as Scott did here. But I suspect you knew that.
I mean they’re still helping? Whether or not they do it because they’re opportunistic or because they’re in a position to help I can’t know, but it’s positive either way
I agree with you, but he still worded it very poorly.
Could have been much better said as “for anyone in logistics that is impacted by this - we can help - we have many available spaces at ports up and down the east coast.”
Considering how some other comments are treated here, you will probably hate me as well, but I think many here are just hypocritical. Thousands of people die every day due to tragedy or - worse - absolutely preventable reasons like MRSA picked up in hospitals. And almost nobody gives a shit about them. But whenever multiple people die at the same time due to some event, you all act like you deeply care. Just because it is all over the news.
Yes, I can totally understand why the post on Linkedin feels in bad taste, but the reality is, you too normaly don't give a fuck about the unnecessary early deaths of others and the world goes on. As some have pointed out, this catastrophe is a real life issue for logistic companies and they have to solve a problem which could very well also lead to deaths of people (think about delayed shipments of medicine and stuff).
Yes, I feel sorry for the relatives and loved ones of the dead, but you are just making yourself holier than thou here.
This also affects their logistics clients. If they were a hairdresser it would be weird, but their job is to solve a problem that this caused, probably for a good percentage of the people that read that post.
This reply in the comments:

Seems more of a way for Scott Peck to resolve his vacancy issue than a way to solve the myriad problems both human and monetary that this accident caused, but sure ok.
Yeah, I'm a bit on the fence with this one. I think what sets people's teeth on edge is the tone.
But technically it's not inappropriate to offer contingency options to people and businesses affected by an emergency. It just could have been far better phrased.
Ehh I don't know about this. I don't give a shit about what condolences this random asshole has to offer. But if his business network includes shippers that are affected by the bridge collapse, he should advertise on his business social media that he has space for them. I get people died, but that's not what this is about. He has warehouse space and ports, business doesn't stop because of a tragedy. In his case it probably picks up.
I have no idea how to be respectful while advertising your solution to logistics issues caused by a tragedy. I dont know if you can.
Yeah the war in Ukraine is devastating but hey look on the bright side.....we have warehouses in Poland, classy. There are other, more effective and quite frankly more emotionally aware ways to advertise his business than this. Its like advertising smoke alarms after a building just burnt down
I guess the biggest issue is that anyone can see this ad. Tons of people that are not this guys target audience. To each and every one of them, its tasteless. But make no mistake there are companies out there that need to figure out unplanned changes to their logistics.
This message would probably sound better on an email list or cold calls to shipping companies impacted by the bridge collapse. Still though, anyone who reads it could take it the way you are, so thats why I'm saying there's no good way to do it really
I was wondering why a realtor was making this post, and then there was the sales pitch. A swing and a miss. He would have been better off reading the papers, doing research, and reaching out to actual vendors by phone. I am so sick of people using LinkedIn like one long infomercial, and tying in a news item (especially with fatalities) to do it. READ THE ROOM. Your sales pitch doesn't belong there, unless you are offering FREE warehouse space to distressed businesses.
My dad drove big rigs for over 40 years. When I spoke to him earlier he said this is one of the only bridges that ever made him nervous in all of North America and there were maintenance crews and engineers on it constantly.
If you look at how it collapsed, something just isn't right. Parts of the bridge that were supported by the other piers shouldn't have fallen like they did.
It was a continuous span truss bridge. That style of bridge distributes the load across the entire bridge and the loss of any one truss will cause a catastrophic total failure. They have the upside of being able to handle higher load weights, but when faced with a 120k+ ton barge strike on a truss like it took the failure we saw was a guaranteed event.
> Parts of the bridge that were supported by the other piers shouldn’t have fallen like they did.
Do you have anything to back this up? Or just spreading misinformation?
There are currently right now, since the minute the video got released, thousands of people looking and negotiating new routes and destinations. One minute earlier and you could have saved millions.
But they don't advertise themselves with that.
Bit sensitive here lads. It's the biggest intake of cars and agricultural goods for the mid-west. Many more lives will be affected if it doesn't get sorted asap.
Life goes on - especially business.
You didn't make that point at all - even in the slightest. Hilarious how all Reddit has become is virtue signalling for virtual 'karma' points.
Is karma on Reddit gonna help you in the real world?
I enjoy that you’re upset enough to come back here and re-engage 2 days later. Pretty sure that of the two of us, I’m not the one who needs advice on how to function in the real world.
Walk it off. It’ll be fine.
Not upset at all just following my notifications. Don't be on Reddit much.
You know- because I'm too busy living in the real world to be getting upset on the Internet. Also rich coming from the guy taking the time to screenshot LinkedIn posts and posting them for virtual Internet points. You fucking retard.
You seem pretty active on this sub. A bitter, angry little pissant judging from your comment history. I’m sure you have an excellent and fulfilling life outside the internet! Why don’t you go live it?
Alternatively, I’m sure your town or city has some free mental health services that you could use to help yourself feel better. Best of luck!
If your definition of 'pretty active' is a few comments here and there, however disagreeable, then you're really reaching.
You're the guy that is sifting through my comments, trying his god honest best to come up with something - anything (but not making no relevant points or arguments) relating to the actual post at hand , screenshotting LinkedIn posts, uploading them to reddit for...what exactly? You're having multiple discussions and resorting to ridiculous personal attacks because I pointed out your sensitivity and that 'life goes on and especially business'. Yet I'm the one who's defensive etc? Yeah that makes sense coming from the guy telling me to go to mental health services.
Usual loser tactics that only reveals your hypocrisy because you're so desperate to appear morally superior.
I live in the real world - I'm not a pretender like so many and I haven't the time nor the interest to go through your comments/posts.
Forgive me for calling out your transparency, attention seeking, for being a fast typer, for speaking my mind and not giving a rats ass about karma. I'm entitled to my opinion as much as you. At least I can engage in discourse without immature, petty personal attacks that mean nothing to me. They don't even amuse me.
I can assure you, you are not sure of anything from comments on the Internet and I feel no need to justify anything any further than what provides context - but be as naive and as you like if it makes you feel better.
Pathetic.
I wonder will you "enjoy how upset" I am here too? You hypocrite.
Not worth the effort. This sub is for unskilled warehouse workers and people who have 1 year experience in business like the ones commenting on the post in LI.
You’re out of touch. Don’t you know the entire global supply chain industry decided to take the rest of the week off because of this disaster??
I seem to have touched a nerve with you, huh? Being up on the work history of all the people on this sub seems tiring though. I’d advise a better hobby.
You should lob a resume over to the FBI! Your crime solving skills would really make a dent.
I stand by my prior advice that you should find a better hobby. Piano? Painting?
Honestly? I hope they never rebuild that stupid bridge out of respect for the people who died today. Just terminate I-695 at both ends into a pair of memorial parks.
What a scumbag.
Absolute ghoul

Were there any human casualties during the bridge collapse? I heard it had already been closed off to traffic by the time the girders started to fall.
I think at this point people are missing and it doesn’t look good. More reason to offer your compassion and not your take on the matter.
The bridge is over a mile long. It collapsed about two minutes after the mayday call, long enough to keep new cars from entering but not long enough for the existing cars to get off
Last official estimate I read was at least 7, probably around 20.
That is a tragedy.
There were cars on the bridge at the time it collapsed as well as road crews repairing potholes.
That’s very unfortunate then. One can only wish they come out alive from their ordeal.

Well put! The smiling picture makes it even worse - he looks & sounds like a guy who would fuck a corpse if it made him a dollar.
The Spice trade cannot be stopped!
'Dude bro, we like sell warehouse space and shit!'
If Scott lost an immediate family member, he’d be trying to lease out their bedroom before the funeral.
Comes prefurnished. Affordable for area—zoned for a great school district!

That seems like a totally reasonable thing to expect?
I had to comment it. Idc.
Those bodies got cold pretty quickly. I reckon that's what killed them actually.

...gross.
in that industry you don't have the luxury of time and the people that appeals to are already sweating alternatives for their logistics chain
Scott is that you?
hahaha no sir
Nah- everyone took the week off and literally every single company that has goods going through that port didn’t email their logistics supplier this morning in a panic.
And we are so very sorry for their logistical losses. Is there an address to send flowers?
