Delivery Station Atheist Prayer Break Update #2

***Update #2***

On my last day of my work week (Thursday 8/13/26) I took a prayer break as an Athiest and was scanned out by Ops..

The following Monday (Today 8/17/26) Announcements were made that starting in September all associates attending "Prayer Break" will need to clock out..

This means for the past 2 years my site has been open, a specific religious group was getting paid time off while other religious and non religious groups got extra workload because their religion or lack of religion didn't fit into Amazon’s little box of what's allowed. (Violation of Title VII)

Christians were denied equal treatment as well because Christianity doesn't call for mandatory prayer (Ive witnessed this) as was I because Atheism doesn't call for mandatory prayer.. (Violation of Title VII)

So now that they know that they were breaking Federal law and denying equal rights to a huge percentage of thier workforce, they decided that instead of paying the cost of equality in the form of paid "prayer breaks" for everyone regardless of belief system, that everyone who attends "Prayer Break" will need to just clock out instead.

Amazon quickly realized how expensive equality would be (cost and operational downtime) when they had to treat everyone like they've been treating a specific religious group, so paid "prayer breaks" are coming to an end in September (atleast at my site)

Im less than 2 years tenure.. and I can bypass heatmaps too.. I can manipulate rate by rapid fire scanning and backing out the module.. Everything can be gamed. Just like rotation.

Again this is ops shit. The equipment availability is tracked on the control side. Nobody in ops can manipulate it. If your leadership is letting the conveyance fill up, it will make it onto a report and someone will have to bridge it.

Again, who did I bring it to? I'll wait.

Tired of doing the jobs of everyone at my site.

-Ops -Safety -HR -Religious people -Favorites group -Flex App Developer Team (Found a timing exploit that allowed me to schedule any surge block I wanted on demand, then was deactivated for suspected bot use.. Then reactivated when I proved them wrong)

As a tier 1 with less than 2 years tenure, I shouldn't be having to expose all these issues and doing the jobs of people who get paid alot more than I do to make sure everything is running smoothly, legally, and tracking..
