On March 6, 2017, Frito-Lay employee Caity Renfro was getting ready for her 7 p.m. to 3 a.m. shift at the local plant when tornado warnings were issued for Shawnee County.
Renfro, of Silver Lake, said she was in the direct path of a tornado, so she took shelter at home instead of making the nearly 20-mile drive to work. The coordinator on our shift at that time tried to reach out to me, she said. He didn t want people to be worried about calling in because he thought that the clause in the contract would cover that, where it specifies that something way out of your control would not be considered an attendance issue.

FAIR LAWN Randy Rauco was in awe on the very first day of his new job at the Nabisco Brand Factory in 1987. He was a young man, in his 20s, and had never seen anything like it.
The giant tower, visible from outside, where the raw materials are stored. The huge mixers that prepare batter for the molding machines. The immense ovens, the length of a football field, that send the aroma of baking cookies to surrounding neighborhoods. It’s weird, when buying a package of Oreos, Ritz or Premium crackers, you don’t think about how they made the stuff on such a large scale,” Rauco said.
