Let's see, we got Mother Nature, fickle finance, worker woes, and planned obsolescence. Sounds like a recipe for a supply chain nightmare. Good thing I studied up on this stuff!

I agree with Kati, but I also think economic and political instability can be a major source of disruption.

All of these options are spot on. When the weather, politics, and technology all decide to gang up on your supply chain, you know it's going to be a wild ride.

Ah, the joys of global trade. Gotta watch out for those weather tantrums, currency fluctuations, and labor unrest. It's like managing a symphony orchestra, but with more spreadsheets.

Whoa, looks like we got a real 'perfect storm' of potential supply chain disruptions here! Better keep an umbrella handy, just in case.
