These people aren’t snowflakes. Amazon is known for disturbingly cutting corners. Their warehouse s sometimes didn’t even have proper AC, and every step is tracked by floor workers to excess, where even using the bathroom is not looked kindly upon because it could throw warehouse targets. Amazon employs humans because they can’t replace them with machines, but they push people to almost machine-like levels.
A neighbor’s son worked at a local Amazon warehouse several years ago in the summer with no air conditioning. He said it was unbearably hot. There were newspaper articles about it & I think they were forced to put in AC.
Thanks for writing this. We have a lot of clods on FR who apparently don’t understand that some people have bad work conditions. It’s one of the reasons we once had unions.
They just opened a huge Amazon warehouse one town over from me. I wonder how it’s working out.
