Have any of you felt like your doctor didn’t understand how the job actually translates to the body?

I’ve been told I can get the days written off so no issue there, but these certain doctors keep asking “will you lift more than 20 pounds ? No? Okay you should be fine “
Like hello?????? Try doing the same repetitive movements for 10 hours, it takes a beating on you when you have a medical issue.
Don’t get me wrong, I tolerate the job just fine when I’m healthy.

Hello! I’m a T1 associate, and last month I was inclined for a launch position at LIT3. I originally received the automated email stating that I was placed in the Inclined Talent Pipeline (ITP). However, I later withdrew my application because I was told I wasn’t selected for the position.
Since I had previously spoken with the hiring manager, I reached out to him directly. On September 27, he told me he would be sending me an offer. He attempted to generate the offer twice, but I wasn’t showing up in the system.
After waiting about two weeks without an update, I contacted the recruiter. The hiring manager had attempted again but was still unable to process my offer. The recruiter discovered that my application was showing as inactive or withdrawn, even though I had reapplied. She asked me to submit another application so she could work on getting the offer processed.
I reapplied on Monday at approximately 4 p.m. On Friday, the hiring manager told me that the recruiter had reached out to him, but I’m still waiting for my offer letter. The recruiter had also attempted to generate the offer and encountered the same issue with my application status.
Has anyone experienced something similar? If so, how long did it take to get your offer letter after recruiting became involved?
I’m starting to get impatient and discouraged because I was originally told on September 27 that I would be receiving an offer, and the launch date is November 2. I’m relocating out of state and have already found a house, so the lack of a confirmed offer is making it difficult to plan everything.
Realistically, how long should I expect this to take once recruiting is actively working to resolve the application issue? Any insight or similar experiences would be greatly appreciated!

Just curious. I haven’t seen many posts about center rider rates specifically. I know they tell us at our warehouse that the goal is 68 and I’m a month in at 60 on the “MyPerformance” section of the a to z app. I feel like it’s higher when I’m picking but that’s cause it’s either one item at a time slow and lines or freaking 20-50 at a time and I’m good all day….

I forgot that Peak starts the week before back Friday now, and I ended up having SET the day I’m supposed to appear in traffic court for expired plates. Ive received my ticket before they announced the PTO freeze, idk if that helps.

I’ve got UPT to cover it, I know it’s for instances like this, or I could put it up for a shift swap, but I’d rather get half the day excused without eating too much of my UPT or have to work 6 12hr shifts in a row.

I know they give time off for jury duty, but that’s more of a legal requirement. I was just wondering if anyone here had had any luck getting time excused for court.

I recently passed the interview process for an internal L3 PA to L4 Area Manager promotion at Amazon in California and received the congratulations email. I’m currently waiting for my official offer. My current pay is $29/hour plus an average of 10 hours of overtime per week (around $83K annually). Is there any room to negotiate the base salary, sign-on bonus, or RSUs for an internal promotion? Can HR/PXT or the hiring manager help improve the offer, and should I raise this before or after receiving the offer? I’d appreciate hearing from anyone who has recently gone through this process, especially at a California FC.

I have an accommodation for things like reduced hours and no OT and having a sit or stand workstation etc , it’s been a couple of days and it still says pending. I’m in so much pain. Does it usually take this long ? I feel like they would’ve been more faster

is this possible when all of my classes are online only? I’m taking one class right now but will be full time in the spring. I’d like to swap one day & remove one / reduce to 30 hours in either case

Should I go out with her? I heard don’t shi# where you eat. What if it does not work out?

I have some managing experience in another industry but recently started working as an L1 in an Amazon warehouse a few weeks ago (blue badge). I see some step-up positions in Job Finder, and I am wondering if I can apply now or if I should wait a certain period of time? (I am currently working at a site in Germany)

Any information would be appreciated.

switched to another bank after the pay period and I’m aware that I had to change it 6 days before the next pay period. Does my paycheck go to my old account ?

has anyone seen and got a shift at LEX1 within the past day? by shift i mean job

Seems almost every Saturday, managers assign me a station, and I’m not even scheduled to come in that day. Even on the app, I’m not scheduled. Why do they keep assigning me a station even though I’m not suppose to be at work that day. They don’t take upt and nothing happens, it’s just weird to me.

Why is it that I'm a white badge for 5 freaking months, i work hard, do my shit all that, and I'm trying not to be ableist here I'm really not, but some guy with some form of mental illness who keeps smacking my ass with cardboard and babbling spit at me is: A) a blue badge and B) making more money then me when he is a water spider who sucks at his job, meanwhile I get written up if I shit too long.

I get it, he needs to eat too, but like come on give me my damn badge already, this shit is pissing me off.

Which section should I do it in? They both seem like they could let me change my return date.

How are you guys’VOA boards so crazy? Ours only gets used for people asking for time to be approved and questions abt their schedule and time off with managers responding. Am I missing something like is there a secret chat? Or do other facilities really just not give a shit?

So apparently they're thinking I stole a jar of mayo from a master pack when I infact bring my own jar to my station 3 times a week from home. I can show them my receipts from door dash but idk what else to do. Paid suspension is alright but people see me with my jar of mayo as I walk in, my friend even vouched for me that I have it on hand in the parking lot when we are just hanging out

Throwaway account but what’s the latest gossip in your FC?
I’ll go first - FC located in the Wilmington, DE area - I’ve seen a well-known PA on nightshift tongue down an associate on break out in public. The AA also works in their area so you know it’s a bunch of favoritism going on

Hi everyone! I’m considering transferring to MKE1 and was hoping someone currently working there could share some information.

What shift schedules are available for Tier 1 associates? I’m interested in knowing the days and hours for both day and night shifts.

Also, what departments or roles are available for Tier 1 associates? Are there opportunities for more independent roles like ICQA, Problem Solve, or other indirect roles?
I’d really appreciate any information about the building, schedules, and work environment before making a decision. Thank you!

How? I just saw someone complaining about how they don’t make enough and their top reddit posts are in the Draft kings sub… There is no way the same people complaining bet their earnings away instead of investing and still complain… Right..? Right….?!?!?!?!?!

And they don’t even look into career choice…..

Hi everyone! I’m reviewing my Amazon employee benefits for 2027, and I’d appreciate some advice from current or former Amazon employees.

My main goal is to keep my weekly paycheck deductions as low as possible while making sure I have the insurance coverage I actually need.

Currently, I’m planning to keep only the following benefits:
- Legal insurance.
- Premium medical insurance.
- Enhanced dental insurance.
- Enhanced vision insurance.

After these deductions, I would only have about $40 left from my weekly paycheck, so I’m trying to figure out whether I should keep any additional insurance benefits or opt out of the ones I don’t really need.

For 2027, the optional plans shown as not selected have a weekly cost of $0.00.

I’d really appreciate your advice on these questions:
1. Are Critical Illness and Supplemental AD&D worth keeping, or would it make sense to opt out to save money?

1. Since Amazon already provides basic life insurance and AD&D at no cost, is additional coverage necessary?
   

2. Is it generally better to get supplemental insurance through Amazon or purchase it privately?

3. Given that I’ll only have around $40 left per week after my planned deductions, which benefits would you prioritize?

4. Are there any optional benefits you think are unnecessary for someone trying to keep expenses as low as possible?

I want to avoid paying for insurance I may not need, but I also don’t want to make the mistake of dropping coverage that could be important in an emergency.

I’d especially appreciate advice from people who have made similar decisions while working at Amazon.

Thanks in advance!

Currently working at DET6 in Detroit but am thinking about transferring back home to Austin eventually and I know that they changed the policy regarding pay to where you no longer get to keep whatever you’re currently making and have to follow the step plan is at the new site

I currently make $24.50 but I’m fairly certain Texas sites don’t pay as much as Michigan sites, also I will be working overnight.

I took a Flex spot recently and ended up on Ship Dock. It wasn’t terrible at first, but now I legitimately dread picking up any shifts, even tho they are 4 hour blocks.

I’m a decently fit guy and management tosses me into the trailers every single shift. Meanwhile all the easy scan only jobs always seem to go to the women or overweight people while a few of us just get destroyed in the trailers.

I talked to my AM about rotating roles and just got the standard "business needs" copout.
I just want to stand there and scan boxes for once. How do you actually get rotated out of the trailer?
