Distorted Shell Elements - Meshing issues

$

When I run my model I get this type warning for several of my floors. Per other forum posts, I have tried updating my merging and geometry tolerances. I have slowly increased those to no avail. I got to 0.9" for merging tolerance and 0.5" for geometry tolerance and then the model basically couldn't run. Any thoughts? I tried to upload my model but its too big (222 MB). So I include just an image of the 3D view for reference. Also what is the risk of leaving these types of issues unaddressed. For a large floor, having 15-20 shell elements per floor not included in the analysis doesn't seem like it will really make that big of a difference.
