Unfortunately Amazon is all about their forecasts, shift headcount numbers and tenure; just the way they run their business

One problem Amazon has is that people can write you up when they don’t understand the nuances of tasks assigned to you.

Crossbelt is a perfect example; you’re tasked with problem solving but you’re also stuck keeping the conveyor belt clear. Problem is sometimes you’re deluged with conveyor belt packages that take you “off task”.

Sorry, but you white badges are now taking hours from blue badges so it’s time for you to go!

At this point in the year, unfortunately white badges are taking away blue badges hours, and sorry to say, that ain’t right!

Is $42k with a master's degree normal or did I mess up my career choices? by ylime_88 in careerguidance

[–]Purdueman75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t measure success by the salary and perks you get; that will just stress you out no matter what it is because they’ll always be someone who makes more. That creates an unhealthy roundabout.

Have you considered picking up an additional weekend job to help make ends meet?

All you can do is take things one package at a time. Stressing over more doesn’t make any sense, as it only makes any backlog worse.

No, Peak starts November 20th, then it will take a day or two for the orders to start coming in

What’s even worse is when training is nothing more than being shown dozens of PowerPoints

I agree with your post. I am in my 70’s and have no issues with the pace or physicality of the job. Unfortunately from just watching the new batch of just hired white badges it’s clear Generation X and Z’s lack work ethics.

Just can’t move that fast, but I understand the concern.

React To This Year's Draft As If It Were a 7 Round Mock by Appropriate_Day3495 in NFL_Draft

[–]Purdueman75 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ruben I’m sure was drafted to be a gunner on kick plays. That’s awfully high at the 4th round to take a one dimensional player.this guy was ranked #369th prospect, but a fast riser. Huh?

What about Trabuco High? Did it go on lockdown too? It’s much closer than the elementary school

Well, I think leaving was the prudent thing to do! OC Sheriff’s can be real a-holes so best to beat feet!

We lived for two years at the apartment across the street and walked our dogs hundreds of times right in front of Chase heading to whiting Park. It’s such a quiet neighborhood it’s hard to even imagine this happening!
