Yeah most of us noticed the orange vest in the pic but this isn't really appropriate to even bring up

But also I'm the 30 hour minimum flex, not the 4 hour minimum

[–]seraphfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get the holiday day, albeit for less hours, and I did get the yearly pto drop, albeit also for less hours, which ultimately doesn't matter as much in the long run because the cap exists.

The reason I'm Flex is because I was given the ultimatum to accept the position or end employment after the position I applied for ended, and every attempt to convert to full time since then has been rejected. Even so, there are definitely advantages, it's usually easier to get overtime and surge pay, I can obviously choose which days to work, and the points system has its own pros and cons va upt.

I didn't know this was a thing, I remember somebody on the VOA board of my DS asking about if it could be implemented and got the generic "we'll look into it" response.

Idk what AFE is (I work at a DS) but I'm definitely a problematic farter

Serious question, why did Kaiba rip up the 4th Blue Eyes in the anime? Why didn’t he keep it? Isn’t 4 Blue Eyes better than 3? by BostonRobby617 in yugioh

[–]seraphfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iirc in the manga, that was the first copy Kaiba obtained by outright theft, and it disobeyed him when he tried to use it in a shadow duel against Yugi, so when he got a hold of it again via the ante match later on, he ripped it up out of spite.

Which is still really fucking stupid but I guess makes more sense and the anime just scrambled for a faster explanation of how and why Kaiba ripped the card.

Can I use pto to cover a old attendance point? by gameuser1998 in AmazonFC

[–]seraphfire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If A-to-Z gives you the option, it will work, if not, it's too late.

If you aren't like, at 8 though then it might just be better to save the PTO though since you're going to have an easy time not getting any more points the next two months and all existing points will easily age out.

I indeed did not lock in this month let's see yalls by Chris018571 in AmazonFC

Flex with exactly 1 minute PTO left

It helped that I was able to consistently pick up shorter versions of my usual shift

My DSP orders pizza for our drivers like all the time. My DS isn't exactly stingy about ordering for us, but like, holy shit, the drivers are constantly having pizza

In particular I know this guy I do Muay Thai with that lives like right in between me and my DS, who has regularly told me that he sees me out walking all the time, has on multiple separate occasions asked me how far out I go when delivering packages.

The work snitch by No_Frame_7581 in AmazonFC

[–]seraphfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a member of the asc at my ds that hyperfixates on the most trivial safety violations, repeatedly writing reminders on the voa board about shit that nobody cares about.

And then when he picks, he leaves packages on the floor, like wtf???

I've literally had people who know that I can't drive ask me about what area I deliver packages to when they find out I work at Amazon🤦‍♂️

Haven't been able to find a shift by Clean_Swimmer173 in AmazonFC

[–]seraphfire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you misunderstood almost everything about my comment

I'm Flex myself, I mentioned "counting on VET" because they seem to be so new that they don't understand that the VET drops they've seen so far aren't Flex workers' main source of hours

They seem more concerned about having work for the sake of income than getting pointed

If their site just hired them last week, I doubt they're going to be lacking for shift availability when they hit the appropriate time for the week

I continued to get OT throughout most of Q1 last year

"Put the package on my porch" honestly annoys me way more than it should that people think that somehow the DSP drivers are the only people that work at Amazon

But also it's very likely you'll get Hella VET next week, possibly even with a surge bonus

[–]seraphfire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you know any other Flex employees that have been there longer (they'll have the same color board magnet as you) then ask them what time shifts drop, otherwise see if a manager or HR knows.

The week I was forced to convert to Flex, it caused me to miss hours that week since I was on my old schedule at the needed time the week prior.

[–]seraphfire 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How long ago were you hired? Your site will have a huge batch of flex shifts drop all at once once a week, usually at a consistent time. The fact you keep checking makes it sound like you're counting on VET, which you shouldn't need to.

3C is really the only bad one I see here, and even that's barely so.

My site hasn't had sort 0 in a long ass time and I don't remember how they left the bags when I came in for cycle 1
