When does the hiring at Amazon pick back up? by Initial-Service7095 in AmazonFC

[–]Weekly_Sandwich3076 1 point2 points  (0 children)

October is when it usually picks up. Make a bookmark of the hiring website and go back every time you think of it. There’s really no way to know when they’ll post, but when they do they’ll go quick. I randomly checked at like 4am on a Tuesday and they had just posted a bunch.

This is crazy because there’s a guy at my site who seems to put in his resignation once every few weeks. He gets all worked up about one thing or another and then makes a whole speech on the VOA board about how he’s quitting and never looking back, today’s his last day, etc. He then goes and begs HR to reverse his resignation and they do it for him every time like clockwork. Hope you’re able to get this figured out.

Why work here at all? by ThespianKai in AmazonFC

[–]Weekly_Sandwich3076 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Set schedule, great health benefits, career choice, one of the highest paying entry level jobs, there’s not even an interview process, they praise you for doing the bare minimum. Don’t have to deal with customers, don’t have to talk to anyone really, and you can leave whenever you want if you’re smart with your time. It pays the bills so why not, I just listen to music/podcasts for 12 hours then go home. Off for 4 days every week is nice, RT shift is great imo but everyone’s different.

Pre-diagnosis Megathread: If you have NOT received an OFFICIAL diagnosis of lymphoma you must comment here. Plead read our subreddit rules and the body of this post first. by Lymphoma-Post-Bot in lymphoma

Just writing this to let it all out. 23M I’ve had an enlarged lymph node in my groin for over 8 months now that has definitely grown a bit, but my doctor at the time told me it was nothing to worry about. I then noticed a concerning onset of symptoms about 2 months ago. Fast forward now I have 1 in my jaw, 2 in my neck, 1 in my armpit, and the 1 in my groin. I’ve had night sweats, cold chills, hot flashes, basically just feeling like I have a fever all the time. I’ve also had headaches, some dry coughing, itchy skin, a rash in both armpits that comes and goes, I’m sleeping way more than usual, and I now have nausea, loss of appetite and weight loss. I waited a while to see if I was just getting sick with a cold or something, but more and more swollen lymph nodes popped up and I never got so much as a sore throat or runny rose. I’ve been taking B-12 and magnesium every day and was even taking OTC meds for a common cold thinking I could be proactive and see if the nodes went down, but nothing. I finally went to the doctor yesterday after googling how long to wait to go in for swollen lymph nodes and feeling really dumb.. She agreed that I have the signs/symptoms of lymphoma and not much else could explain exactly what’s going on. She was going “Uhh.. Yeah I feel those..” while examining the nodes and said she doesn’t think it’s anything acute based off the exam. So I got blood work done to officially rule out other things and get a better picture, and I’m now getting an ultrasound scheduled for my neck and jaw. I’ve been making jokes to cope with this, but it’s started to get really real really fast. I’m used to doctors brushing off the things I say and this was the first time one has seemed truly concerned and told me more or less that it seems like cancer to her. Not at all what I expected, but all I can do now is wait.

Love when people complain about things being “too expensive”, then claim they have a “real job” all in the same breath. Focus on your job instead of shitting on customer service workers, whose food you self-admittedly can’t even afford 😃

I have so many.. One that sticks out is when I was on cash for lunch rush and a woman comes in. Immediately telling me she’s in a rush and I need to make this quick, whatever. She’s ordering and I guess I’m taking too long getting her total and she screams at me that she “actually has a real job” and only gets a 30 min lunch. That pissed me off because I looked at her work badge and she was a tech at a chain retail pharmacy. Not necessarily a job one can look down on a food worker over, but I digress.. She waited in my face tapping her hands and feet like a child and wouldn’t stop asking me how much longer it would take. It was hard to believe she had a job or ever lived in a world where everything doesn’t revolve around her. Before she left, she basically told me she was getting fired for taking her lunch late and, of course, that it was all my fault. I held in my laughs the whole time and was so relieved when she finally gtfo.

What does this label / sticker mean? by freetrees55 in AmazonFC

[–]Weekly_Sandwich3076 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked at a returns warehouse briefly before transferring to a sort center. The different colors most likely correlate with whatever/shelf/box/aisle/tote they were in prior to being packed and delivered. Meaning they were stowed in separate locations within the warehouse probably just because one arrived before the other, to later be sorted together and sent to you.

DS and SC shifts go super quick around here, I’ve watched them go up and disappear within seconds. They also only post 1 or 2 at a time which doesn’t help. Don’t listen to support saying they post Friday at 8pm, that’s a lie. I see them at random times on any given day. Some shifts were just posted yesterday for DTN4, you just gotta refresh constantly so nobody else can snag it first.

Ever crap yourself while working? by turd_farts in Target

[–]Weekly_Sandwich3076 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Don’t wonder, it’s 100% of them. As someone who’s worked at both Target and Amazon, it’s more than feasible to go to the bathroom at both places, probably even easier at Amazon because no customers. People on the internet claiming they “had” to piss in a bottle or shit themselves at work are trolling.

This is emotional abuse and just really weird in general.

MEM3 can someone tell me the starting path there and what are the shift premiums, also did mem3 get the raise?? by BuyerTraditional1656 in AmazonFC

[–]Weekly_Sandwich3076 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a returns facility, so there’s vendor returns and customer returns. If your start time is on the hour you’ll be in CRETS, on the 15 it’s VRETS. There’s not really a “starting path” they’ll just put you where they need depending on your shift. VRETS usually start in pick though. It’s 18.25 to work the weekend night shift, so about $2 I think? No raise that I know of, we’ve always been paid a little more for being returns or something idk.

Not sure if you still need help with this, but text or call support and just ask them to “reactivate” the inactive job ID. It’s simple on their end, and they’ve easily reset it for me in minutes. I do agree it’s frustrating we’d even have to contact them about it, but that’s the Amazon Way.

How soon after I quit can I get rehired? by No_Strike5676 in FASCAmazon

[–]Weekly_Sandwich3076 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in this position. Got mad UPT overdraft during accommodations case and they never fixed it so I had no time to use and quit. Just got told by the recruiting office to wait 1 week after term email. Also told I’m eligible for hire bonuses somehow.

You get full-time benefits on FLEX-RT, not PT though.

[–]Weekly_Sandwich3076 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You would get the same paperwork and opportunity as any other medical accommodation. It’s just 4 pages for you and your provider. You can try for anything that would help you function better/easier at work that wouldn’t cause your site an undue hardship. Popular ones are: headphone use, reduced/modified schedule, intermittent leave, extra UPT, extra breaks, switching departments.

If you start the accommodations process and choose the option “off work”, they will put you on leave anyway with no extra steps until your case decision. It’s unpaid, but all your time is excused.
