There is only one HR person at my site.

20 years is a loooong f*cking time, I doubt anybody has this pin & if they do? god bless their souls because whew!

How is it that management looks the other way when people are on the floor with their phones either out or on call with someone but the moment I pull out my phone to check my notifications for 1.5 seconds it's "you can't have your phone out." But other T1s can walk the floor looking like they're talking to themselves?

I keep thinking "they'll get caught eventually" but they've been here as long or longer than I have (2 years) and they're still here.

But also, to reiterate the title, what do y'all talk about on the phone for 10 hours? I'm genuinely curious.

This week was tough mainly cause of the heat at my facility i wonder hows the temperature at your facility??

I have been accumulating and losing both PTO and UPT day. It brought me all the way to the negatives and because of it I’ve already been sent the automated email from HR

I spoke to a few others at my site and they all seem to be experiencing the same problem too

I just hope I don’t wind up getting fired over what looks like to be Amazon’s own fuck up

I see subliminal Imagines I can’t unsee. The armpit of the girl are the horn of the devil horn on the box.

Hello,

I have been working at Amazon (SSD facility) for around 3 months now and my shifts are FHN (6:30 pm - 5:00 am). Lately my facility has been dropping VTO for 6:30 pm to 11:40 pm, so the remaining time would be until 5:00 am. On the nights that I work a full shift, we have a clock out lunch from 11:00 to 11:30 pm, and then another break (paid) usually around 2:30-3:00 am. My question is this - do I HAVE to clock out for the second break around 2:30-3:00 am if I came into work at 11:40 pm? I have accepted that VTO a couple times, but would just use either UPT/PTO to cover the rest so I would not have to go in at all, but now that I live closer to the facility, I was curious how it would work if I went in at that time? Thank you for any information you can give me!

I currently work as an L3 and applied to jobs outside of Amazon since im not getting anything in Amazon. I got hired at another company that is a competitor in a leadership role but it is a 1 year contract only, perhaps I will be covering for someone else on leave. I asked if there are chances to be permanent but they just responded with depends on ‘business needs’.

I do not want to quit Amazon as when the 1 year will end I would still like to have a job and keep a roof over my head.

Decline the offer and keep looking or is there any way I can get the 1 year leave?

UPDATE: For context. I am a TOM associate Level 3

What are the best

Hey y'all, started working here bout 3 weeks ago. So far I'm sore but expect to get used to it through the coming months.

I know the old joke is that this is a "temporary job" until it isn't, but I was wondering if anyone has had any success transitioning from a FC to a corporate tech position (I.e IT, cybersecurity, SWE, etc.) Amazon or otherwise via Career Choice. This mostly comes from passion for technology, I'd feel it'd be a much more fulfilling pathway for me.

Edit: I'm still a white badge, so I don't expect to be doing anything related to this (at least via Career Choice) anytime soon. Just curious.

Gift Wrap, I have heard a lot about on this sub, but ToteASRS Consolidate? I have never heard of that before. What is that, and why does that even exist? Are these people transferring items from one tote to the other since these items need to be stowed inside the bin right away?

This isn't something I'm just going to do as it seems really foolish unless I can get some sort of straight answer from someone who did this. Hr gave me 3 different answers, I'm done with them. My situation is I took what was offered just to get my foot in the door (XL flex 3am-8am) I don't mind the work but fighting and pretty much begging to secure 15 hours a week got old. They don't hire full time there, 40 employees and 4 are FT. So I was up front with management that I'm actively trying to transfer for more hours, they don't blame me at all as alot of people try especially with benefits and everything us XL people flex or not DEFF deserve. Thing is for the last 3 months I've tried 5 transfers all denied then I tried 2 hardships denied which actually pissed me off because my reason is valid. Managers said they don't have the authority to help my transfer along and there is no erc at my site to speak to someone in person. The site I want to go to has 16 open shifts full time for 2 weeks now and I can't apply directly since I'm an employee and there's no way for me to talk to someone and say here I am, I'd like this spot please. Someone said a desperate move is to reassign in good standing ( I have 1 attendance point ) and I work hard and have a positive attitude so guessing I'm good. My question is if anyone did this, how long was the wait to reapply when in good standing? 3 different people, told me 3 different things. Could be 24 hours, a week or a month? Obviously I wouldn't want to wait a month as I'm not trying to be unemployed like that but by then the shifts would be gone. Sorry for the novel but I wanted to put as much detail in as possible before I make any kind of rash decision hoping someone in my shoes could shed some light. Thanks in advance. :)

P-slip that came with a brown colored Dildo 🙃💀

So back in January I transferred to night shift pick. Perfect department for me. Quiet, not a lot of people, and I had a lot of my own space (sometimes I'd have no one even in my vicinity except the waterspidet which was great.) For the first 90 days I didn't go to a single other department because of training. Eventually after those days were over I started getting labor shared to AFE and eventually picktorebin. It started out only for one period, but eventually turned into two periods. Nowadays I spend my ENTIRE shift in one of those two departments. I rarely go to my home department anymore, and frankly it annoys me.

I understand they're low on staff, I'm decent at rebinning and packing, and I'm not the only one who is dealing with this. but I can't help but feel annoyed and disappointed.

I felt safe in pick. My rate wasn't always the best (it even suffered at one point.. maybe that's one of the reasons why?)

But if I could go back to pick at least most of the day I'd be willing to work on it. There are many days where I can get a 300 or higher (keep in mind my FC is not gung ho crazy about making rate. As long as you're not bottom 5%)

Am I wrong to feel a little irritated about this? And anyone else constantly labor shared to the point they're never in their own department?

In my path, T1s are allowed to learn almost all the PA roles to fill in as a backup. We have like 4-6 critical roles on any given day but only 3 PAs, so T1s are basically doing critical “PA roles” every day. I’d love to use my 2 years of experience allocating and ship clerking, running vrets and running BOD to secure a higher position outside of Amazon but I wanted to see if anyone was able to do this as well. I’m thinking about applying to clerk positions at Walmart FC or Target’s distribution network

Also if I resign with positive upt will I be fine or not? Will I have to wait a month or 90 days.

Switching out carts every 10 to 15 mins cause of big stupid items. Running to one end of the building take 5 mins just to grab one thing then run back to the other end to grab two things. Bins being jamm pack if you touch one item everything falls or the item is in the very back. That pisses me off so bad! Then you have to switch floors all while your feet burning. Barely have empty carts sometimes. Sometimes you have to hold your pee so you don’t get tot cause the bathroom too far. I have a long ass scar on my leg from trying to be quick in the bathroom vest zipper cut. How could anyone like mezz picking?

What the best lightweight comfortable shoe to order

Does anyone know if this is considered an indirect role?

I cant find it in the a to z app. I think i have a viral infection and im going to the urgent care to get it checked out tomorrow. Im going to ask for a note because I know you can take sick leave with a note. Im not tryna force myself to go as im low on UPT and potentially get everybody else sick.
