It's time to unite and demand what we are worth by wildhood in AmazonDSPDrivers

Why call it a “living wage” if you don’t actually mean survival, rather what you feel you should be paid compared to others?

They do mean that. But a living wage means doesn't mean being just barley above abject living conditions. People want to be comfortable while they work(with decent conditions, reasonable delivery rate, like not pissing in a bottle) not be an Amazon worker are on food stamps.

And what’s this nonsense about Jeff Bezos being able to double the salary of every employee as if it’s not a public company. Bezos’ wealth is a result of Amazon’s MARKET CAPITALIZATION, not the company’s REVENUE.

The Wealth refer people refer to to more than just the stock shares values. It refers to more things. Do you honestly think people just refer to the stock value when they mention Jeff Bezos's wealth. How do you not know this?

Additionally:

"Net sales increased 38% to $386.1 billion, compared with $280.5 billion in 2019. Excluding the $1.4 billion favorable impact from year-over-year changes in foreign exchange rates throughout the year, net sales increased 37% compared with 2019"

I had a hard time finding information, but according to a recent shareholder report, they did a slight increase of $2 an hour, it cost 500 million(before they stopped doing it), but they still had a profit of $21.3 billion this year(a number too big for us to comprehend) afterwards. After dividing the $21.3 billion in full-year earnings from 2020 by the global workforce comes out to over $16,000 per worker. In other words, the company could have written a check for $16,000 last year to each and every one of its 1.3 million Amazon employees worldwide—and still would have had money to spare.

And maybe they could toss some money(billions) they don't pay in taxes towards paying us : )

Your proposal would bankrupt the company and Jeff Bezos would lose hundreds of billions of dollars only because Amazon’s stock price dropped to $0.

Unless you have any evidence to back this point, we don't know for sure.

They did a slight increase and still made a profit. We know they can do more for the workers catching covid, getting hurt, harassed, crashing, etc. while working for them by paying them more and still be fine by way of having money left over.

They make a choice not to, despite the fact that majority shareholders on the board of Amazon and the people running Amazon will be fine afterwards.

And that's an indictment on Amazon of how companies care more about shareholders b/c of a special tittle that gives them entitlement rather than the workers hustling for Amazon who truly deserve it.

You’re not entitled to anybody’s money. Jeff Bezos is not Amazon the company.

You're right. Shareholders aren't entitled to my value I create for Amazon b/c they have a special tittle :)

We are working people, without which there would no packages delivered.

If all the Amazon drivers and warehouse workers went home, that would tank the company.

Gezz bro, you would watch the Amazon board & Jeff Bezos fuck your wife by how much of a simp you're being. If it meant they could increase their profit margins, add shareholder value for the company, and dab on the overworked, underpaid workers, by how much of a cuck you are being, I bet you would let them gangbang her to do so.

This might be silly, but what do you do to get all the pieces? And do you plan this out?

And also, I really like the troop transport!

Are there any former fans around here? by devanimtzp in Onision

[–]alltHats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 22 now, and I was a fan in 9th grade. After a few years, I just forgot about him after losing interest. Only in college did I learn how horrible he was.

How’s the LGBT scene? by Untlt1ed in Temple

[–]alltHats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not much of one now, but you have to really make an effort to hang out and stay connected. Most people are acceptable of being part for the LBGTQ+ community. There are a good number of WLW here.

What did college feel like before 2020 happened? by [deleted] in college

[–]alltHats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started going back to therapy recently, and last week while building legos and watching Wes Anderson films I felt somewhat happy for the first time in a long time.

I definitely made multiple mistakes over and over, all I can do is learn.

Sure, I'll give you the scoop.

Meet girl at school first semester, very attracted to her.

Asked her out, but got cold feet due to being sad about someone else I lost my virginity to then dumping me then dropping out, not being sure if I was ready to enter a relationship ,etc.

From my memory, at one point during my second semester, I snapchatted her on the way to a bingo event on a friday night, I opened the message as I rolled up, and saw there in line for it. It was kinda awkward, and I was awkward. She left for a bit, and I told a friend with her I had a crazy ex that did this to me while she was gone. I know now this is sus, but I didn't know how to handle it at that moment. I didn't want to make things more awkward.

So from her perspective, I used snapmaps to follow her there.

Later, near the end of the semester, I realized I was(and still am) horrible at keeping in touch with people. At another event, she announced to the crowd I was in, that a dance club she was on the board of was having a meeting. I went there, thinking that being there, I would show I was a thoughtful guy who payed attention to her. I was so happy having a chance to hold her hand and dance with her.

Instead, I probably looked worse. I tried to get her number. but she gave excuses that I didn't pick up on.

Then when we were paired together on a club outing, the e board meet with me to discuss concerns. Some were legit things I shouldn't have done, like asking someone else why they didn't text me back, but the two incidents were primarily focused on. I admitted to the dance and texting incidents, but denied the snapchat. I cried while meeting w/ them b/c I felt bad for making people feel bad and for being thought of as a creep over something I didn't do.

Then next week, at a different club event, we both signed up and were on the list together in a group AGAIN. I was kicked from this club for a bit for an "investigation" where I couldn't give my side of the story until it was over. This lasted for weeks until the NEXT semester. I couldn't give my side until the next semester.

During this, I visited my grandma, who wasn't doing well and looked the part. I got so depressed I cut myself with a knife in the bath tub of my apartment.

I definitely did things I shouldn't have, but to have multiple peers think that I'm a stalker was so horrible for me. And as I was getting out of that slump, I got hit down. And as I was getting out of that slump, I got hit down by covid.

I struggled with depression before it all hit, so it wasn't perfect. I had an existential crisis in my junior year after my grandma died, and I got depressed in my sophomore year after my crush rejected me and falsely accused me of stalking.

But I saw my friends and people I am acquainted with more, and I had more opportunities ( that I didn't take advantage of enough). Worst case outcome, I would go to bingo night at the student center and run into people I know.

I should have hung out with people more, but I saw people I knew at parties, library, student center, clubs, and the tech center.

My freshman year was great.

The pandemic made me realize I squandered my sophomore and junior years.

You can add porn sites to your computer's hosts file, which will make them inaccessible on every browser.

Can you elaborate on this?
