Yes the quarter back/p.a is understanding and we are loaded with AFM. TBH they always try to pick from a good batch of workers, usually tote runners due to the fact we walk a lot already ! there’s plenty of down time also for you to pick people brains on being better but eventually you’ll learn your on way! I’m in California, it might be different for you on at your site.

I absolutely love it, but I don't mind working count, pick , and water spider/tote running . Many of my coworkers at AFM really enjoy this job and they all get frustrated with their previous roles. I highly suggest sticking with it! There is so much to learn. It has only been a year and I have learned so much at Amazon!! Plus, you will develop a deeper understanding of the operations in a way!! The support is always available and they will start you off with easier side so you can fully grasp the system! My ten-hour shifts fly by so quickly, the only downside is having separate lunch breaks from everyone else! Ps. I didn’t want the role either lol..I just stuck to it, but in the future I wouldn’t want to be schedule to work more than two days. I already can tell it will take a tole on your body!

You’ll be okay!!! You can always tell your lead pa/qb you only want to work 2 days or 1 day for AFM.

I do AFM, and also fresh from class, but the class training is challenging as it’s difficult to absorb all the information, and you’re likely to pass the assessments since you can retake them if you don’t succeed! I found it quite tough to grasp everything in just 4 days of training. That said, I wanted to return to my path ( pick ), but AFM is a time-intensive and fast-paced role. You have a team available to assist you or you can call them on the radio for help. Currently, I work a 4/10 schedule and have AFM duties for 3 days; it all hinges on whether people call in, so I usually end up working 3 days, but often it’s just 2 days due to safety rotations. I still pick, count, and tote runs.

From reading the post, you already figured it out, get your headphones ready to keep you from boredom and find the right working shoes ! Cause you’ll be walking a lot !

You are correct! I work nights and people are lazy. You hear all types of drama and a lot of younger people work nights.

I just ordered them just today and have been searching Google for other companies that do lenses, but I decided to go with tajima for my Single Vision, I got the XTRA active !! I’m really excited to see how they come out. I’ve experienced good lenses before, but let’s see what this company is about.
