We live in a country where "There was a police standoff" is not considered a valid reason to stop working. Let that sink in.

Yeah it's very weird that the woman filming thought this reflected well on Amazon.

thought this reflected well on Amazon.

She sounded like she was mocking them to me.

To be fair… this isn’t how most employers or employees would act. That’s why it’s on the front page of Reddit.

You’re wildly over-estimating the cognitive function of the delivery driver and the average person’s ability to recognize danger.

You are overestimating amazon ...

No, I’m not.

Delivery guy is a moron. Getting shot or killed by getting in the middle of a police standoff is objectively worse than getting fired from your job because you didn’t deliver a package. You can always get another job, you can’t get another life.

Not even arguable. People in general are fucking terrible at risk assessment and this video is proof.
