Bernie's AI bill

Since some of you are clearly too lazy to do your civic duty, how about just sign the petition?

It takes 30s of your time and it could actually save your job and put money in your pocket.

What are you honestly risking here? Losing 30s of your time for a $1000-14,000 check on your pocket from a tax on Amazon and other mega corporations.

Anthropic's CEO actually suggested we do this because giving people universal basic income could ease tensions over AI taking jobs. What would you do with an extra $14,000 in your pocket just for being a US citizen?

Hello. I have been working at Amazon for 5 1/2 years in the packing dept.

The first year I worked there I worked with a female co-worker a lot. She slammed and I used the tape machine or vice versa. One night we were talking about the dating scene and she Told me that I was the ugliest guy in the whole warehouse and she was serious. What hurts is she is right. I noticed the female coworkers don’t really talk to me much. It’s hard going into Amazon thinking all the female coworkers think i am a creep and ugly looking. So I just go in there and do my work and get the heck out of there.

The piss cup

I’ve seen them cup around whenever I used the bathroom and in matter of fact, I’ve seen one drop it right next to me but luckily it didn’t get on me

Is my job at risk??

So long story short on June 21st a co worker gave me a hug and planted a kiss on my neck and I had to report it to ERC to make a sexual harassment case. I asked if I saw him again what was I supposed to do because since I switched to back half mornings and he was still on back half nights on the same schedule Wednesday-Saturdays with me I’d still see him for 1-1.5 hours between our shifts because he was an RME and I was a Picker.

Then on Fourth of July I picked up an overnight shift and I told my manager (both my pick manager for nights and my old stow manager who knew about the case) that I saw him in the robotics cage and I might need to be moved but I didn’t think he saw me.

Turns out he found me later on my Pick station when barely anyone was around and proceeded to walk into my pick station behind the barrier and give me another involuntarily hug and planted a kiss on my forehead.

And before any of you say “well why didn’t you stop him?” It was because I’ve been sexually abused in my child hood and still suffer through feeling powerless and freezing up in those moments so I couldn’t.

Long story short I immediately found my pick manager and he walked me to the main office to make a written statement with HR and he said he put me on a paid temporary leave of suspension for my safety until the case was finished and processed.

He took my badge and walked me out and I am scared. I’ve never been on a paid leave of suspension and I don’t even know how long this case is going to take.

Do y’all think they’ll try to fire me?

Who knew?

I had no idea until I opened up the Earnify app a few minutes ago. Today is the last day.

person follows me into bathroom every time and I found out who

for the past few weeks every time i go to bathroom stall someone comes in after i sit down and lets out a loud diarrhea session, then leaves, with surgical precision. It has been every time and I use the bathroom often.

Today I looked down when the person appeared during my bathroom session and I saw what the person was wearing, it was the distinctive black boots that my OM wears, after he left I got up and walked past the leadership desk and doublechecked to make sure it was the same boots and it was. he is the person that has been following me and ripping ass. I went to HR and they said they cannot help and to use the HR on the app, but they cannot help either. I also cannot crosstrain out of this dept how to deal with this?

Should I still go

So I used 8:30 hours of standard vacation to cover the rest of the shift and I used 1:30 hour of Flexible PTO. And it still shows up blue. Should I attend work still or speak to a manager?

Anybody else just stop caring?

So I don’t really need this job anymore, and for the last three weeks I’ve basically been seeing how much I can get away with. I’ve been taking like 20 extra minutes on my breaks, going to the bathroom every 30 minutes, and when I’m stowing I just have my phone in the tote closest to the pod and watch YouTube while going as slow as possible.
The funny part is nobody has said a single thing to me

It also doesn’t help that my manager is a complete prick, so I really care.
Before anyone says I’m just lazy, this didn’t come out of nowhere. About a month ago I put in a transfer request to Flex because I don’t really need the job anymore and just wanted fewer hours. Since then they’ve approved multiple people who submitted their requests after mine, while mine is still sitting there. So this has kind of become my own little protest. 😂
Has anyone else ever hit the point where you just stopped caring and how long did it take before management finally noticed or said something?
