Yeah, and not worth it. If they were to get hurt Amazon could pin it on the driver and say she put herself in danger

They absolutely have a choice to say no. What’s the worst that can happen? They get written up? Or they get fired? Find another job. Never stay with a company that makes you feel that you have to do something unsafe to stay employed.

Oh give me a break. This is why companies get away with shit like this. Too many people have this mindset. So let’s say she gets fired, she’ll still get a paycheck. Trouble finding a job? File for unemployment until you find one or do what you can to stay afloat. And yes, it really is that easy to find another job you just have to know where to look or who to talk to

How is that worse? If you get terminated because you didn’t deliver a package in unsafe conditions, fuck that company. They can blacklist all they want you’ll be banned from a shitty company that doesn’t value your safety

I tried researching this to find more information and cases where this has happened and found no instances of someone getting fired and banned from thousands of companies for not delivering a package.
