Overheard my boss say 'we don't need safety training' right before our busiest season

I was grabbing coffee in the break room last Friday and heard my manager tell the shift lead that quarterly safety meetings are a waste of time. The next day I saw three people in the warehouse lifting 80-pound boxes with their backs instead of their legs because no one showed them proper technique. Has anyone else's workplace cut corners on training and lived to regret it?

I got a herniated disc from lifting wrong at my old job.

Ice pack 20 minutes on 20 off helped me a ton with mine.
