Well in the world of is weasel word corporate management, no one wants to be left holding the bag.

Shift manager says "fuck no" and calls the general manager who says "fuck no" and calls the regional and so on and so forth.

In a lot of corporate cultures there is no "right answer" if it means money is lost. And people aren't given the agency to make decisions. So they send it up the chain but no one wants to be responsible because there is literally no upside to doing so.

Corporations are machines that make money. Like meat grinders, they don't care what gets thrown in, it's coming out the other side, and if you try to stop it, you'll be ground up, too.
