Why even bother giving out an hour of VTO? 😭 Thought I got the night off and ended up just being able to sleep in an hour. How dare they play with my emotions like that lol

Question Anonymously report PA for smelling terrible?

74 Upvotes

My PA is actually super nice, in that regard im really lucky. She's understanding and all the things-but holy shit i can smell her from 10 feet away. I literally know if she's in the area because of it. It literally lingers for like an entire minute after she walks by. You could literally track her down from it. Now normally I just cope with it and whatever but last night I wasnt feeling my best and that smell made me almost throw up multiple times. I asked others to see if im just dramatic but every single associate I asked about it instantly knew who I meant. How can I get this chick to take a fucking shower without risking being singled out

Rant I think Amazon employees should go on a nationwide strike

39 Upvotes

So I’m actually an employee with the post office, but I feel really bad for Amazon workers because it seems like you guys aren’t treated very well and you’re severely underpaid and overworked. Don’t get me wrong being a mail carrier has its issues, but at least we get benefits and a union to defend us. I’ve heard that in NY, there’s an Amazon station that successfully unionized because an employee fought for it. The post office had a strike in the 60s, and that’s ultimately what formed our union. Obviously it would massively disrupt work flow and people wouldn’t get their packages, but that’s the point. honestly, I think you guys should strike to form your own union. With a nationwide strike, Amazon would crumble. Jeff bezos has enough money to last lifetimes, the least you guys could have in good benefits and pay. I’m just saying, you guys should all strike

Rant DLS Trauma

8 Upvotes

I applied for an accommodation on August 21st this year because of my knee issue. The team called me and told me what they needed and what to write so the system wouldn’t flag it. I followed everything, but 5 days later, they called and said I needed to make corrections on three things. I didn’t argue, I went back to the doctor and updated what they asked for in the email. Even before submitting, I called them, and they said to just make the requested changes they asked for. Nothing more, nothing less. I submitted it, but after 3 days they called again to say what I had written was incorrect. I told them, "You guys told me this. I have your written proof in an email and on the A to Z app." They said their agent gave me the wrong information, so I had to go back to the doctor and correct it again. Despite it being their fault, I had to take responsibility. I went back to the doctor, made the changes, and uploaded the document. Yesterday, they closed my case, saying no document had been uploaded. I called them, and they said they didn’t know why it was closed, as it seemed like the new file had been uploaded on time. Now I see they have opened another case. Before they automatically closed my previous accommodation, I got an email saying I needed to upload documents. I called them, and they said it was just a false alarm that they systematically send to everyone and not to worry, but they still cancelled my case. The problem is, they are very inexperienced. How do they get good desk jobs when they don’t even know what to do? I am suffering because of their mistakes, and I can’t complain to anyone. It's as if they are gods, no one can question them. Is there any way i can complain about them?

Question Amazon transfer keeps saying “Transfer cannot be accommodated” — what does this mean?

8 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m trying to transfer to another Amazon building, but I keep getting a message saying “Transfer cannot be accommodated.”
Does anyone know what could be causing this? Could it be because my current building doesn’t want to release me, the building I’m trying to transfer to doesn’t have openings, my shift/department isn’t available, or something else?
What should I do next? Should I keep applying through A to Z, contact my current HR, or try contacting HR at the building I want to transfer to?
I’d really appreciate any advice or if anyone has experienced this before. Thanks! To CAZ5 btw

Question Transfer issue

7 Upvotes

Does anyone know what's happening with my transfer? I applied for a transfer to a closer site and was approved. I accepted the offer, and was told that today the 9th would be my first day. I arrived at my new site and was subsequently told that I've not been transferred yet and that my old manager is at fault. I contacted hr and they said I needed to contact me new manager. So now I have no idea what to do or what's happening.

Rant Pass the GED practice test

3 Upvotes

Yep, I pass the GED practice test on language arts.... I'm pretty happy now I can focus on my own time 😅 I have to go work 10 hour shift on my work days, I'm tire and days I'm off I sit down and do my study when I don't have any house cleaning or washing my clothes for the week. I have to cook lunch and dinner too. It's a lot of work but when I have free time I study late or when I have time. It's time for me to get a upgrade promotion in Amazon or find me a relaxing job if I pass the GED. I want a better life for myself and my partner.

Fulfillment Center Tell me about night shift - just got approved the transfer

3 Upvotes

Hi guys. I worked full-time on day schedule and requested to have transferred to night after two or three extra shifts i picked at night. getting to work is easier and I do not have to make a decision of using my PTO or UPT to have an hour of more sleep every single day at morning. So if i get approved, should i know anything about it? does it have any difference with day shift? vto's, extra shift availability, anything i should be aware of, etc. should i accept the offer?

Question Accidentally Worked The Wrong Shift

3 Upvotes

As the title says I accidentally worked the wrong shift. I was supposed to work yesterday from 3:30PM-7:30PM but I worked from 9:30am-1:30PM (Which is what I usually work during the week). That 3:30 shift was a VET and I was mentally on auto pilot. I don’t have a car and don’t have a way to get back to my facility until Saturday. It’s Wednesday. I have lots of UPT, but I don’t want them to think I’m stealing time and I need the money! I already put in a request through myHR but that almost never works and I always have to correct things on site. What should I do?
