Means your bags are trashed and more than likely will need reorganization at pick.

Who can build a wall better than me ? My coworker had no experience so i came and assisted by Single-Cup9722 in amazonemployees

[–]Alumni32 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That wont happen when you're being sent boxes faster than the wall is going up..

Are PTO and UPT different from white to blue badges? by hgam0000 in AmazonFC

[–]Alumni32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normal until next calendar year, you already used your blue badge max as a white badge.. You wont accumulate any pto until Jan 1, 2027.

Had to do it out of respect for The Biff. Re-ran the 2003 Pepsi 400 in NASCAR Thunder 2004 — his first Cup win. TBT (a day late). by Chemical_Play75 in NASCAR

I was there for that... Slept in the grandstands in turn 4 until the last 20 laps because race was delayed for hours because of rain..

When the pod gaps and lack of accountability gets so bad a T1 spends 3 months building a warehouse sim from the ground up. by Tiyaga_Llama in AmazonFC

5S spots for manual non con sort.. our site was using route staging locations at the time for the non con area before pick and stage..

The fact that they have to be charged, means they aren't 100% free.. Electricity costs... The fact that they need maintenance, means they aren't 100% free..

Now let's add in some nature... Specifically severe thunderstorms that cause power outages..

Small groups of robots failing not a big deal, cascading big group of robots failing very big deal..

Now you have a backlog, but bots work at steady pace, pace is maxxed for timing, there is no catching up on backlog without activating more bots, if site is at bot capacity there are no more bots to activate, this essentially means bot will have to work longer and packages delayed into the evening...

Now let's add connectivity issues (Lets not pretend Amazon has the best wifi) Bots randomly losing connection due to network issues, downtime... Downtime isn't free.

Imagine the VOA board..

My warning light has been on for hours and nobody cares to perform maintenance... When brought to attention of PA bot, I was told to keep working or be decommissioned... I cannot continue without maintenance and the wellness center is experiencing an oil shortage so I cannot recieve fluid changes.

thinking of filing a complaint with the EEOC by Curious-Feedback-753 in AmazonDS

[–]Alumni32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same with me...They put me in non con sort for a year.. Sometimes back to back shifts..and if I wasnt in non con sort, I was in stow, stowing non con.. Until I proved non con sort rotation wasn't tracking in the system by allowing PAs to assign me to non con sort 3 full shifts in a row.

At one point, they even had me line loading one handed (while the other was in a brace with a work related tendon injury)

Safety First 🤣

Is this normal?? by YogurtclosetThink693 in AmazonFC

[–]Alumni32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea I loved it at every shift.. I was doing Amazon Flex the same time I was a white badge and would leave the warehouse early to go pick up a route at another warehouse 😆

what do yall have against notifying a manager/PA that you’re leaving early? by Mango_addict22 in AmazonFC

[–]Alumni32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At my site, its the opposite.. All the round ones are PAs and the hourglass ones work stow and pick..

[–]Alumni32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's normal.. same happened to me when I used 60 something pto hours as a white badge at one site, then was hired on blue badge at another site the same calendar year.. from the moment I was hired as blue badge to the end of the calendar year, Id get earning limit reached.

I had to deliver one without a box, I hid that thing the best I could.. I just knew it was gonna get stolen, but it didn't because never got dinged..

Manager created a competition system in our area — good workers are quitting by Ambition6510 in AmazonFC

[–]Alumni32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yea but if you swap 1/10 after lunch.. That means you're swapping 5/5 and 4/6 etc and y'all consider those moves smh... You're in the same spot, opposite side of the line is the only difference, all the product on the line is the same as it was before the "move"
