South Lake Union in Seattle is about to feel some pain.

Corporations went along with Covid insanity and now they pay the price. My eyes are dry.

And so it begins...the consequences of many poor decisions by leaders/lawmakers/company heads.

My daughter did CSA work from home 10 years ago. Nothing new. Enormous call centers make little sense.

Talk about slamming on the brakes.

For a long time, Amazon did have a leg up on the other online retailers. But most everybody else has caught up with regard to the logistics of online retail.

Just this week, I ordered clothing from LL Bean, a book from AbeBooks, and some food items from Thrive. All my orders arrived within a few days, about the same as with Amazon Prime.

I still have an Amazon account but I'm finding little difference (and even better pricing sometimes) going to other ecommerce sites.

There is no recession. The stock and bond markets are great. Everyone’s 401k are at their highest levels ever. Peace has broken out across the world. Crime is at an all-time low. Education is better than ever. Gasoline prices have been significantly reduced due to swift action and releasing SPR oil. Inflation has magically disappeared after passing the Inflation Reduction Act. COVID has been vanquished and the new boosters will keep everyone feeling safe and cozy.

Now we can get to the important business of diversity, inclusion and equity.

amzn’s absorption of warehouse space has driven rates sky high, in many cases, higher than office rates. There needs to be a come to Jesus in this sector and I guess this is it

Many people no longer have as much spending money. The Biden economy is taking it’s toll.

Closing Kennewick call center ... I don’t think that’s hit the local news yet.

The USA is going to be covered in half-completed commercial real estate projects again. I’ve seen this happen before where it takes a full decade or more to get them completed...or torn down.

Forty Four is a HUGE number. How many are still operating?

I use Amazon as a product search engine... hardly ever order from them. I usually find what Im looking for on it then go to the companies website directly.... usually get a better price that way.

We keep hearing about how bad off the “churldren” are from staying home during the entire dempanic. “Experts” are saying they can’t or don’t want to learn and have severe psychological problems. I guess that crap doesn’t affect adults working at home with no social contact with others.

Amazon is also bailing on their mall locations. They HAD a shop at UTC, one of San Diego’s high end malls, and it’s now gone. They spent months “building” a location at a location in Studio City and bailed on that one before it even opened.

Meanwhile, the retired Jeff Bezos is out and about with the new girlfriend, hanging with the globalist jet set.

A friend of ours has been doing at home call center work for Amazon for the last ten years.

plans to close four of its five call centers in the US and switch those customer service representatives to working from home.

Those customer service representatives' homes will be in India
