I was stowing today... Had 3 aisles already. Girl beside me tells me she's running to the bathroom. Cool, I can't guarantee I'll keep your stuff handled, but il do what I can. She also tells manager otw to the bathroom that she's going. The manager walks over to her aisle and starts to pick up a package as I come back around the corner of the aisle. She sees me and tells me "she went to the bathroom and will back in a minute", drops the package shed picked up, and walks away.

Like really? You couldn't even stow the package you already had in your hands?? You see I'm already soaked in sweat keeping my bins empty, but you're gonna let me take over the extra aisles too while you walk away? Cool cool cool.

Also, when PAs come thru, grab a bunch of boxes and throw them on the cart and then walks away.

Ts makes me LIVID. A good leader jumps in and helps out. A bad leader works at Amazon.

I've submitted maybe 8 standard PTO requests over the last 2 years and never had one denied, but I put one in this morning about 8am for tomorrow morning to get off at 10am (request was for 10am to 11:50am) and had it denied...

Have y'all seen requests get denied? Ive been told that requests won't get denied as long as they're in at least 24 hrs in advance. Kinda pissed that they can't give me an hour and 50 mins. So now I'm just gonna take upt, so they still won't have me but now I just won't get paid for it. Man that really irks me.

Update: they sent out a full shift VTO tonight (which I of course missed by literally .03 of a second)... System sending out full shifts of VTO but had my less than 2 hours of PTO rejected. Real cool. Makes me feel super valued.

Last wed (my Friday) I was put on unloading on the dock for a couple hours, then taken off and told that I'm not allowed to do that position until I've done the training in the device (although I've been doing it for a year no problem). They said, verbatim, if I'm asked to do it tell them I'm not trained, and if they insist then escalate it to their boss. I go in today, start on divert, then told to go unload BY THE SAME PERSON WHO TOLD ME LAST WEEK NOT TO DO TS. I mentioned what he'd told me, he radiod someone, and then said "oh well, we need ya back there". I feel like I should report this, but don't wanna be *that guy*.... What should I do?
