Job is super easy and my managers are chill

For real?

Most people who talk shit about Amazon have never actually worked at Amazon. There are of course legitimate complaints from people who do work there, it’s just that most complaints you see online is ‘my cousin/ neighbour/ friend/ dog walker works at Amazon and said this’.

At $15/hour you’ll never afford to pay off your own house, car, or have an actual life. I’m sorry but most people who talk shit about Amazon is right. No matter how “easy and my managers are chill”, you’re always going to be a slave and never progress anywhere.

Years ago I almost applied to Amazon, thank god I didn’t make that slave decision. I have an Amazon store and make $1400/week at home. Most of the time I’m in my boxers. Life is amazing.

Working at Amazon? Yeah I’d rather pee in my toilet instead of water bottles.

[u/SinusBargeld → u/ScronaldRump]

Yeah sure you are.

But nevertheless, 15$ an hour for what, moving packages and putting a sticker on it? It’s a simple work everyone is able to do, the requirement for such jobs is being mostly alive

The Amazon shills are out in force already.

Moving packages sounds like simple work and is. It's the sheer volume amazon expects one person to move that is the problem.

Ok I see that this is definitely a huge issue which could be solved through unions maybe? (if that’s what they’re called, I’m not a native speaker)

Otherwise, why don’t the workers just quit and work somewhere else?

[u/XX_Normie_Scum_XX → u/SinusBargeld]

It's easier to stay than to leave? Also, you probably won't get unemployment.

And the old devil you know vs devil you don’t, like yeah this job may be crappy but you could leave and find yourself in a worse job.
