Good way to make more money?

“Amazon said the worker, Christian Smalls, received several warnings for violating social distancing guidelines.”

That’s the (typical) East Coast mentality.

I’m glad he got fired!

"Put three or four of our best reporters on this story."

"Sorry, we can only spare two."

"OK, two then."

Ping.

This is Blasioville. A kangaroo court will be convened and Amazon will be whacked.

Amazon is not taking any phone calls at their customer service number. They have a recording that tells you they can't speak to you at this time.

They owe me a refund for an item I returned the 2nd week of March. I sent it back the day after I got it, and the website shows that they received it back, and that my credit is being processed, but it's been that way now for two weeks. The credit hasn't showed up on my credit card yet. I tried to write them via the email they originally sent me when I contacted them about the return and credit, and I got a reply saying that "Amazon is focused on the health and safety of our associates and, based on regional regulations and social distancing requirements, this has resulted in extended response times."

Also found out today that the two local McDonald's here in Rome, NY are not serving breakfast sandwiches all day. I only like their breakfast sandwiches. Can't stand their burgers or their fries. The drive-thru was packed bumper to bumper, with two different lanes merging, and it took me at least 15 minutes to get to the mic to place my order for a couple of egg, sausage and biscuit sandwiches, only to be told that they stopped serving breakfast sandwiches at 2 p.m. because of the "pandemic." There are 34 confirmed cases in my county. No deaths. It was 5 p.m. when I was in line. I won't be going back to any McDonald's any time soon.

something tells me the threatened strike by whole foods clerks isn’t going to go too well ... sounds like they’ve already backed off from a “strike” to a “sickout” ...

Amazon said the worker, Christian Smalls, received several warnings for violating social distancing guidelines. Amazon said Smalls showed up at the protest at the Staten Island warehouse Monday despite a order to remain home for 14 days with pay because he had come into contact with a co-worker who had been diagnosed with the virus.

This guy disobeyed company directions re: COVID-19.
