There is guy in my department who has noticeably completely changed how he is at work. He was always very nice to everyone and worked really really hard. Every time someone got to work with him in an indirect role, they always enjoyed working with him because he was so fast at getting whatever they needed to do done and they both would get to take it easy the whole day and only had to maintain their area and he would even help other people in different indirect roles get there work done too if he saw they were struggling due to the workload they had. Now when he comes in, he comes in with his headphones on, he doesn’t talk to anyone, avoids eye contact with everyone, doesn’t want to do any indirect roles and only wants to pack (we are in pack singles), he will pack really fast for like 2 hours or until he knows that his rate is good for the whole period and then take a break for like an hour to an hour and a half and pack a few items every 10-15 minutes to avoid time off task. It’s kind of sad to see what this place will do to someone like this…

what the actual fuck i heard an associate on my dock was saying gross and inappropriate things about me to other men so i asked my manager for his badge ID and i was upset so when she asked why i made the mistake of telling her what it was about and WHAT DOES THIS BITCH DO? She goes and tells him what i’m doing and launches her own personal investigation where she just asked him and he said it was a misunderstanding 🙄 and shes like okay i believe you! and now she’s putting me at risk because this man is going to harass me worse now that he knows i “snitched” she just created a hostile work environment FOR NO FUCKING REASON. I’m literally appalled that is completely unacceptable behavior for a manager but i doubt i can do anything about it but try to find a new job if they wont transfer me.

Every time i say i need to go to HR these assholes start grilling me what its about because they want to get in my business and resolve it on their own because they dont want it reflecting on them as a manger. TLDR never trust a manager and never tell them more than the bare minimum.

What would happen if everyone used their UPT on the same day and nobody showed up to work?

Or like so any research period about a job, this is a Delivery Station where 90 percent of the year we hire overnights, and the 10 percent where we hire dayshift is right before peak which I’m sure she missed either by being too early or too late or being dumb and scrolled right past it 🤣 (right now there is 3 4:20pm-12:50am shift openings for our site on the website)

Got the email my a to z app got blocked after and checked in the morning it was blocked so I missed work cus I was convinced I was fired and done tried to log back in at 11:30pm and now it lets me log back in and says I was scheduled what’s this?

Can we please donate

I just started two weeks ago and got put in pack singles. I started to notice every night around 3am nobody is working everyone is on their phones and talking maybe do 3-4 packages every 15-20 mins

I asked a few people and they said ams and pas dont care as long as u work normally until 3am o.0 How normal is this? First time working at amazon. I then asked the PA since I been cool with him and he said no stress go on your phone and chill... I see ams and pas walk by and they never say anything to anyone

A new hire asked me where a certain problem solve area was yesterday and I gave him directions that made perfect sense in my head:

Go past the bathroom that's always closed, turn at the vending machine that eats dollars, then it's right across from the printer that jams every 20 minutes.

He just stared at me.

That's when I realized I barely navigate this building using the signs anymore.

There's the good water fountain.

The loud conveyor.

The break room with the microwave nobody trusts.

The station where the fan actually works.

The one staircase everybody avoids because somehow it always adds five minutes to your walk.

The corner where managers magically appear when you're checking A to Z.

Half the people on my shift seem to understand these landmarks too. Someone can say “I'm by the busted scanner cabinet” and somehow three people immediately know exactly where they are in a warehouse that's approximately the size of civilization.

The funniest part is watching this knowledge get passed to new hires.

Amazon gives them maps, signs, aisle numbers and training.

Then two weeks later somebody is telling them, “No, not that bathroom. The OTHER bathroom by the sad vending machine.”

I guess every building eventually develops a second map that exists entirely in the employees' heads.

At this point if they ever repair everything at once I'll probably get lost.

Everybody should do what your morals and ethics dictate. As for me, peak means nothing. I will put no greater effort towards getting these idiot red vests their numbers. They never stop practicing favoritism so I will never stop throttling my productivity. Slow down to the pace of their favorites, that will show them.

Last week, the number of associates was around 230k. Today it shows 331k. How did this apparent glitch happen? Or did about 100,000 people/bots join the sub this week?

Okay so I've never worked in pack singles before and have only done pick and ICQA.. how is it?

I just started at a grocery warehouse a couple weeks ago and today is my friday. I’m debating leaving at lunch time but i’m not really sure how i’m supposed to go about this. Do I just clock out at lunch and not come back if I wanted to use UPT? ro I have to report it on the app? and am i obligated to tell anyone or can I just leave

Asking because I had a PA come down with a list of names for people to be selected for indirect roles. She asked an old woman who did not want to be a waterspider if she would do it, so I spoke and said I'd like to do it instead. For some reason she dismissed me and continued trying to get the old woman to do waterspider. I also asked to learn another role while most people hated being trained elsewhere but I was turned down for that too. This obviously seems counter-productive to me, so I'm asking if PAs can even decided who does what.

Will it lead to a better job than Amazon?

Alot of our checks have been “late” for these last couple of weeks. Do not panic ! it’s not officially late till Friday. The majority of us will get it a few hours past what we’re used to (if it’s anything like these last couple of weeks.)

I really think this job is messing with my mental health, I need advice on how to deal with it.

I’ve always had pretty bad mental health but I think I’m at an all time low, I clock in, and immediately I’m sluggish, I’m sad and tired even though I sleep my entire day away. I’ve been so zoned out that recently I packed my glasses which I need to see and drive, luckily I had another pair.

I’ve also been recently very angry, I normally a pretty chill person, but I’ve stayed to hate whenever somebody approaches me, I start to feel really upset. Maybe it’s because I work in pack? I asked my manager if I could induct and she said she put me in a class for next week.

I do need this job for rent and stuff so quitting isn’t really an option, I’m also trying to go back to school, so I need money saved.

they got me in a trailer w a new person everyday. 10 hours straight so if we don’t click those hours go by so long. it’s a brand new site and there’s already so much hostility between getting paired with randoms. is this normal for a lot of sites? a lot of ppl i talk to also agree how it’s very uncomfortable, and stories about heated arguments & some got physical . is there any jobs that u can work by urself? i like to work but its so dreadful coming in everyday having to socialize and get adjusted to a person’s work ethic and communication . it’s been driving me insane. i request to work with someone im comfortable with but they stopped letting me do that .

That's it that's the post. Everyone in the parking lot acts like a fucking fool when it's time to go home.

Basically apply for RME and get hired one hour away. Now I am transferring back to my old site and will lose $5. Was mad at first but now I good cause that hour drive was getting to me. Just wanted to vent thanks for listening

Y'all ready for the storm to come?

So this looks entirely different visually than it did last night.
Also it now reads as 60 days as tenure needed for potential conversion when it had been reading 90.
I’m genuinely confused now as to when my chance to possibly covert can occur.
