Amazon.com Inc chief executive officer Jeff Bezos made a surprise visit on March 8 to a company warehouse near Dallas, one of more than 100 sites around the US where employees are toiling to meet a surge in online orders from customers sheltering at home.

Photos of the world’s wealthiest man donning a face mask, jeans and a button-down shirt circulated on social media. He can be seen walking beneath conveyor belts and beside yellow bins. Some warehouse workers in masks took a moment to get selfies with their boss.
