They found her because her corpse started decomposing and it smelled bad. If that hadn't happened due to better ventilation or whatever, it would have been longer. It's pretty disturbing either way.

And that's setting aside that you'd measure her hours dead in "business days" and excuse the company for it? Didn't you feel gross including that in a sentence about someone? Her body wasn't being mailed out for shipping. It was decomposing on the office floor, on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. WellsFargo is indeed open on Saturdays for partial services, and they have security every day in their buildings. That it wasn't "full business days," is some kind of Corporate Erin speech. "Business days" are for communicating a timeline on goods, they are not for excusing company negligence with DEAD PEOPLE.

Business days are important because that's when people work, and would be there to find them. And what's to excuse? Wells Fargo didn't kill em. People die, if you find a company that makes you immortal let me know.

I already clarified why they don't count, due to security being on premises.

Wells Fargo having such bad management and bad work morale/conditions (a criticism towards them that's been happening for years) that they don't notice a literal dead body for days is what you're excusing. It's not just any company it happened at, it happened at WellsFargo. That's the point. Or did you forget about their scandal forcing employees to meet quotas for special accounts resulting in employees signing people up who never asked for it? They have a history of bad management and bad employee treatment.

You're reaching because you don't like the company. Use the good reasons to hate the company, not the lack of granting immorality.
