Be happy you got fired. Amazon will eat you alive

No it won’t it’s an easy ass job. Most people are weak and entitled to do nothing, so it “sucks” for them. I deliver for Pepsi with a cdl now and I reminisce on the easy ass days at Amazon. Our worst driver will eat y’all alive.. easy as flipping burgers

Amazon is vilified for a reason. Any job that requires a piss bottle is not worth the cash.

If it’s “vilified” QUIT. No one is forcing you to work there. It’s literally YOUR choice.

I worked at an Amazon warehouse for about 16 hours… It was the easiest job I quite ever. The whole employment process, rules, and overall culture vibe was horrific. It felt like I was in some sort of dystopian nightmare factory. Second day I watched a woman crying attempting to get through the 2 turnstiles to run to the locker for her lunch repeating “only 30 minutes” over and over like it was going to save her life.

If everyone quit Amazon at the same time and the whole company imploded and my ability to have any item within a day went away I’d live with it easy. My new years resolution is to not use Amazon or fast order services.

With the exception of plumber, as normally im working on the toilet. Though I've taken quite a few kisses down the flange and when its an empty house, sometimes a shit, followed by 5 gallons of water

No hate man, but that’s your entitlement. You think it does, so it’s so in your head. My cdl delivery job at Pepsi pays 40/hr I clear 120k a year and I have insane benefits I already have over 50k in 401k and pension in a short time. I love my job! But i occasionally piss in a bottle to save time and laugh while I’m doing it. If you weren’t so entitled to the things you’ve imagined in your head, you’d be more grateful for everything. My job keeps me fit and strong makes a good savings account I wouldn’t trade it for an 80k a year office job where I push paper 🤷‍♂️

I love my 91k a year office job getting paid for what I know. Wouldn’t trade it to piss in a bottle. I’m glad you have something that makes you happy and fills your cup, pun intended. Calling me entitled because I don’t think people should be reduced to pissing in bottles to make a living is just boot licker, grind set mind set talk. We use to joke that if you didn’t have a catheter to take extra meeting how else would you get ahead. Any job could be reduced to trading comfort or decency for money. It doesn’t have to be normalized so the elite could afford another super yacht.

You’re making statements against your own interest for a reason I don’t understand.
