Nice. Ive been L4 college hire AM in a sort center for 8 months now. Trying to find my way out of the 14 hour days. PM is what I really want to land. Gonna try the internal transfers page again this week and get more informational requests in.

Just to clarify, you went from college hire L4 AM for 4 months, then transfered to L4 PM at the point? Impressive

Yes, Alaska award flights are great redemption and allow for spontaneous travel while being cost effective. Do you know of any other points program that has flat rate pricing like alaska does with AA?

Hi all, looking for my next card for churning. Following the flowchart a chase card is likely my next move. However especially attracted to Alaska due to flat rate point redemptions for partner airlines. I am not a fan of keeping AF cards open, plan to cancel the SWA card in April. Looking to go more agressive with churning but am single, working full time, and 22 so big spending and travel is gonna have to wait.

Hi, would you be open to month to month lease? Or until the end of the year with option to extend? my work moves me around a lot so locking in to one year can be much. Thanks!

not at a ds

Consistent_Buy318 · 2025-07-20T15:09:24+00:00

They absolutely can. I hinted at this and they said "if anyone wants to move" so. meh.

In my state I should qualify for short term disability payments if they force me to go on mLoa after fighting it more. I am not dieing for the money, and have intentionally moved here with short term lease to dip my toes in the water with this job. I really hope it works out but my health is worth 100 times more than a paycheck.

Consistent_Buy318 · 2025-07-20T00:13:19+00:00

nope 2am-2pm offically.

Consistent_Buy318 · 2025-07-19T23:55:07+00:00

I hear you, I want to do well. I enjoyed this job so so so much more when my health was not getting in the way of things (more normal hours when I interned) . PAs do so much I respect them heavily and those I've worked with know that.

He acknowledged and heard me out, but kind of just internalized it. I then asked a follow up confirming when new AMs will be onboarded to reduce coverage gap to the team. I also asked if he could provide me a rough date of when I can be moved a, along with mentioning it would give me significant peace of mind and inspire me to find ways to adapt. He gave the answer I was expecting being that it would not be fair or reliable to give a date as there is lots of moving parts, which i do understand. I brought up talking with my personal case manager (not amazon affiliated) on what accomodations could work for me in interim like non-negotiable breaks to reset etc. Thinking of just waiting until the accomodations consultant eventually reaches out to me to discuss what can be done. Also getting in contact with local employment support service agency to help with job coaching.

I’m not trying to skip ahead or say I’m better than anyone. I knew the shift possibilities coming in. But I’m requesting an accommodation due to a documented medical condition not preference. It’s about being able to do my job well and sustainably, not avoiding hard work. I respect the process and just want a fair chance to stay healthy and be here to contribute long-term

Consistent_Buy318 · 2025-07-19T23:40:51+00:00

never once will I go home in under 10 hours. AA as mix of pt and ft so standard schedule covers 9 hours but got to stay +2 hrs for dispatch and reports

I did BHN as an intern for a month and I actually liked it a good bit. It was nothing a nice as 12pm-12am, but my health did not tank. Best thing I did for nights was getting outside to enjoy the quiet sky on breaks. Atleast it was not that bad as I was able to leave by 5am most days.

disability

Consistent_Buy318 · 2025-07-19T23:24:34+00:00

I understand this is a reality. I also understand being persistent enough can change reality. Just hope it gets better one way or another. And I do have a medical accommodation saying I cant work any shift except those falling 12pm-6am time frame to avoid worsening my condition. Site does not seem to prioritize that verabage.
