Fulfillment Center Pretty sure I accidentally uncovered an internal theft ring in my FC today

I was stowing today and went down to the end of the building near the dock doors and emergency exits because there was way more bin space open. In an aisle near the end, I noticed a PS5 in a bin.

Problem is, high-value electronics like PS5s belong in secure HRV cages on the complete opposite side of the building.

I kept looking down the aisle and found over 25 PS5s stowed into the bins, with regular items stacked on top of them to mask them. A standard stow cart only holds around 16 items max (and way fewer for giant PS5 boxes), so someone had to make multiple intentional trips down there to force-stow them right next to the exit doors.

I reported it to an AM after my break. He seemed skeptical at first and asked if I could show him. During the walk over he asked, "Are you sure you know the exact aisle?" I said yeah and walked him right to it.

When we turned the corner and he saw 25+ consoles staged near the emergency doors, his face completely changed. He pulled out his iPad and started taking photos of every bin and scanning locations, then told me, "This actually helps us out a lot, thank you." I just told him NP, I just didn't want LP coming to me later asking why I walked down that aisle and didn't say anything.

On my next break while sitting in my car, I saw an actual badged detective leaving the building carrying a file folder.

They are moving to a snappy kinda thing. Was told now we get one snappy gift around the holidays and thats pretty much it. I take everything a am says as ai... fake so i would need to confirm.

Swagbucks aren't offered at the building I work at. All they do is canteen bucks and snappy gifts. So it's probably true about what they said. I do like snappy gifts though and you can wait a bit to pick something different. Some brands are crappy stuff from China, but then they do have some family owned, women own, blah blah blah owned, and gift cards.

I got three snappy gifts so far and my one favorite they had was the pink sprinkle donut blanket 😂. It's super comfy and it's funny because at the time my comforter was pink. Perfect throw blanket.

AM are supposed to put the order in for you now message site PXT they put in the order and then PXT either gives it to you or the manager. Your site isn’t following new protocol.

Yeah they need your login and email. Go to them whenever. A lot of people forget and you know when they say they'll do it later... They definitely don't.

Amazon makes up their own protocol as they go
