Does anyone else share my frustration that despite all the new AI features and improved camera resolutions, we're still stuck with a clunky scheduling tool that is in hourly increments?

I want to stop alerts at 07:45 when staff turn up to work, not have multiple alerts between then and 08:00 when the schedule stops.

No other tools I use are like this, it's a very poor user experience. I have complained to them, I don't think they care, they just want to keep throwing useless AI detection features at us.

Those flimsy azz critters always messing my stow flow up. Taking up so much space in my bag to the point I gotta pull all of them out just to get a box in.

They couldn’t be born as boxes, they are all bastards.

Okay, I feel better now. Sorry for my little rant.

I just started at an Amazon delivery station as a flex associate, yesterday was my last "training" shift and first day on the job by myself. Since my first day I have been logging in to AtoZ prior to the time our shifts drop and refresh as soon as the time hits and all shifts are full. My station is entirely flex associates so I have a hard time believing there are so few shifts when flex is required to work atleast 4 hours a week. Therefore, my question is are shifts really going that fast or is there some kind of new hire restrictions on grabbing shifts? Any advice is helpful, Thanks:)

I feel like induct guns are so archaic for amazon, the richest company in the world. They have connection issues, the lasers suck at reading compared to other scanners, and they crap out insanely fast. We constantly have guns that just won’t spit labels out correctly or at all. We send them off for repair, get some new ones back and bam, terrible again. What does your site do to keep an arsenal of working induct guns?

Any one else not getting push notifications for the a to z app?? Still get email and phone notifications though

Adding all these rules but won’t add any money lmao, they apparently are writing folks up for not wearing the arm bands and finger scanners

Like I don’t sleep not willingly I just can’t sleep at all. Then I have work at 1 I can’t eat no appetite and so nauseous. What can I do please 💔💔😢

I’ve noticed when specific people are straightening they let the non-cons that completely fill your hamper down the belt like those long huge rectangle boxes down the belt , and then there’s those big cubes of whatever that will fly out of the hamper onto the floor or can potentially hit you in the head while it’s in the hamper. Among other things.

I had a safety guy complain to me about having some boxes on the floor in the back near the ov racks, I told him that they’re letting bs non cons down so I didn’t have time to stow it. He said he would tell management and nothing
changed. If he had to say something about it it’s not allowed right?

dropping to 20 hours after it being 60 hours for months 😂

Whatever you do, if an L7 comes up to you and starts putting ideas of you becoming a PA in your head and starts propping you up so high that when the lower brass decides that your success stories from your line of work in the past isn't good enough. You fall so hard even when you didn't want to be a PA in general, but it hits kind of hard only because The big guy decided you were worth something after years of slaving.

By the way, that assessment there's no need for the most difficult retarded thing think I've done. Prior PAs at my facility would have never passed it.

anyone know how to get in contact with your Amazon managers? I moved away from my site and now need a job reference. I can’t physically go to my site. I don’t have contact information for anyone. I tried sending an email to them using the Amazon alias and had no response.
