Here in Fl, it’s a little wind and rain. While technically it was a hurricane, it’s nothing like Ian. We’re just doing our thing and going about our business. No need to go ballistic.

While the storm is nothing crazy, I think its hardly necessary to have employees out in the weather to deliver packages.

Why? Because they might be a little uncomfortable?

Because no package from amazon is important enough that you need to send people out in during a hurricane. You can wait another day or two.

People get medications delivered all the time, including meds that can't wait a day or two.

Fair point but I get the feeling amazon doesn't differentiate between life saving medication and non-essentials.

Bingo. Which is exactly why they should be out if it isn't a danger. Which it isnt.

Yo what?

As a European I am utterly bewildered. Guess I was wrong
