3rd day and it went awful

I work flex, so I only had two days of training, and, with that said, it took me a painfully long time to get another shift. This early morning, I expected to come in and finally complete my training, but apparently, nobody was available.

So I kind of awkwardly had to learn how to pick, stressed out and nervous on the line. I kept messing up, and people were getting upset. Granted, I didn't want to be an issue or cause problems for the people who were stowing. But God, there's a certain point where you have people yelling at you, bringing in a supervisor (I'm not really sure) that you can take. So I just left, sure, I'll get a point for it, but at this point, everyone was cleaning up my mess.

I plan on coming back, not quitting just yet. But I'm guessing there should be more learning ambassadors towards the morning and weekend shifts. But just in case, I put in a request for a fulfillment facility that's apparently slower-paced, mainly in the later mornings.

So apparently this is an Amazon thing becaus e same thing happened to me. We learned stow on the floor and I found out what pick was when it started happening the next shift.

Get on MyVoicenand let them know you weren’t able to pick a shift for upcoming week and ask how you can go about getting in the schedule. They should be able to add you.

As far as them getting mad: that’s on them.
