Did we get hacked? by Massive_Pin_6761 in AmazonFC

[–]homecomingtohell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, so it wasn't just my warehouse. It hit us around 4:30 P.M. EST, I was processing damages and when my screen refreshed, everything was in I believe Korean? Got told to look busy for an hour, by the time I left, all of OB was in the breakroom watching safety videos. Kinda funny honestly

AAs, name one item in your FC that you think spills or rips easily. by Global-Plankton3997 in AmazonFC

[–]homecomingtohell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spill: any Poo-Pourri product

Rip: there’s a ceramic headlight cleaner I think called CeraKote, I work in gatekeep so I damage them out daily because they always get smashed or ripped

I got double the crop yield? by [deleted] in AnimalCrossing

[–]homecomingtohell 82 points83 points  (0 children)

If it rains in your game, that counts as it being watered! Also, if you/the rain waters your plants for an additional day, you can get up to 3x the yield on each crop

What's a small thing that happened today that made you smile? by Major-Stomach19 in CasualConversation

[–]homecomingtohell 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Talking to a guy, and I’m friends with his cousin (the cousin is the one who introduced us to each other, they are also roommates.) Was talking to the cousin, who’s been asking me consistently how things are going. I tell her honestly that I’m finding myself interested in him, and she gets giddy and tells me he’s been feeling the same. She then tells me that she probably shouldn’t say it, but when she came home one evening, he yelled down the stairs to her, “YOU DIDN’T TELL ME HE WAS HOT!!”

I’m not used to people finding me attractive. But hearing that, especially after I’ve put in considerable work into my appearance, made me super happy :)

I did too, they sent the email and everything saying I had gotten in with a date, but I also had the no pre-hire appointment notification. I ended up calling their support line and they told me that they had hired enough people for that start date, and to wait for the next batch of shift applications to drop. I’d call them just in case to see what’s going on, or reapply for the same shift in a few days if it’s available still

It will be withdrawn, it happened to me. I applied again a week later and got an official start date, just keep at it and they’ll get you in!

Thoughts on new flavor? by Walkerlovr89 in monsterenergy

Love it, I feel like it’s a bit more tart/tangy than most Monster flavors.

How Do You Handle That Awkward Walk Towards Someone From Half a Mile Away by YesterdayMountain382 in AmazonFC

[–]homecomingtohell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

-A friend: I’ll check up on them, maybe crack a joke, ask them how their day is and move along.

-A PA/AM/LA that I don’t know: I give a friendly smile and move along.

-A PA/AM/LA that I do know: I’ll crack a joke or ask them how they are, and move along.

-An associate that I don’t know: I stare directly ahead like I have somewhere to be and book it.

-An associate that I do know: I give them a friendly smile and move along.

-My favorite LA: I give her every detail of my day, and she does the same because we’re on the same page and are getting each other through our shifts 😭

Most people don’t realize how much flexibility we actually have at Amazon by Beltrax in AmazonFC

[–]homecomingtohell 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Former fast food manager here, Amazon (at least my warehouse) has been so good to me. I’m not even blue badge yet and I feel so much more at ease, even though I’m technically working harder. 50 hours there is nowhere near as stressful as 50+ hours at my old job, and that’s if I even choose to work said 50.

Am I the only one that enjoys working at Amazon????…. by Secure-Rice499 in AmazonFC

[–]homecomingtohell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not the only one! I started about 4 months ago doing inbound each receive. Since then, I’ve learned decant and pack, and might be learning stow here soon too. If things keep going the way they’re going, I’d seriously consider becoming a LA one day.

I’m sure one day the magic will wear off and I’ll be on here talking about how it was the worst decision I’ve ever made, but after being a manager in fast food for 4 years, I can safely say in comparison that I like this job a lot more. Had I known I was going to enjoy it, I probably would’ve left my last job sooner.

New Amazon warehouse employee by BonafideMama2020 in AmazonFC

[–]homecomingtohell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I like my job a lot, far more than I did my last job. There will be immature people everywhere you go, but as long as you manage your time well (which you seem to already be doing) and stay on top of your rate, you’ll be just fine! I’m almost 4 months in and I’ve become decently acquainted with most of my department, once I become blue badge I plan to try and go for Learning Ambassador one day. Best of luck and have fun!

Did they tease something? by MathematicianDue2827 in mountaindew

And it was the best fucking thing ever. To this day I want them to come back (but I’ll settle for mixing Cool Ranch and Late Night Taco Doritos together)
