I work at an SSD in Michigan and I had a MLOA for March 5th and it was denied so I should have gotten 10 hrs taken. It’s now may 19th and still never took the UPT away. Am I good? lol

I just got cross trained a couple days ago and I barely have any idea what I'm doing. How do yall keep up on the heavier lanes/what do you do when there's no pallets/carts that need replaced?

I recently got terminated as a T3 over something that wasn't my fault (have a zoom meeting coming up to discuss it). My question would be if my appeal were to be approved, would I go back as a T3 or would they start me over as a T1?

So, I recently received an incline status via Amazon University for an L4 Area Manager position. It seems like my recruiter is planning to send me an offer for an FC out of my current state. I am a tier 1 at an SSD site already and would like the opportunity to stay at my SSD or go to another one opening up about an hour away from where I currently live in a few months.

How can I go about getting an offer at an SSD site instead? Should I reach out to the SSD recruiter or go through my Amazon University recruiter? If I apply internally to the SSD AM role, will I have to interview again or is my Amazon University Incline applicable to internal roles?

How long does it usually take?

Hi there, it’s driving me crazy that after trying for more than 3 years to get a tier 3 interview when I finally get one I get an incline yet after 3 months I keep getting rejected from all of the roles I keep applying. This was the original response I got

“You have successfully demonstrated that you continue to meet the bar at Amazon and are therefore “inclined.” At this time, we are not able to extend an offer, but you have been added to our internal Inclined Talent Pipeline (ITP).”

Like what am I doing wrong? I understand that being inclined means I passed the loop and a offer would be giving to me but like WHEN?

Why am I getting this email
“At this time, we have not found a successful match that has resulted in a job offer since you were added to the internal Inclined Talent Pipeline” event after applying to roles that DO MATCH? seriously do I have to kiss a$$ to move up.

Part time at SC from 3:30am-7:30am. what to expect?

Does anyone know what benefits are available for flex pt?(if any)

Boxes:

• Gets crushed by heavy boxes on top
• Contents spill out due to improper building by the FCs and even SCs
• Rip due to lack of dunnage inside the box.
• When the item gets lopsided, it's because there's no dunnage in there at all. Also leads to crushing
• Lack of tape inside the bottom causes the package to rip open
• Clear tape is the worst
• Black or Blue WAT tape is not that bad at all.

SIOC and Non-Con packages for both TnS and regular FCs:

• Package gets ripped easily
• The weights rip through the box way too easily
• Longer packages get broken down
• J7A and Y2 packages rip through easily

SIOB packages:

• Hole in clear bag rips easily due to other packages attached to them, even if inside a shuttle
• The seal is not all the way closed for reasons unknown. Either could be a stow or an IXD site issue

RUM/ Paper Jiffies

• Rip easily when SLAM labels are attached to packages.
• When the item is pointy, it makes a hole
• Cube sized items in a big or small jiffy can poke a hole through.
• Packer did not close the seal all the way
• 20' size Boxes in the shuttles or jiffies cram up space, leading to spills to happen
• Those packages are way too stuffed in cages, and that causes some of them to stick out. The cage bulges up,
• Heavy item in a jiffy or RUM can rip through.
• Spills fade the SLAM labels out due to truck movement

SmartPac jiffies (the blue ones with the bubble wrap inside of them):

• The seal machine did not seal the package all the way. There may even be openings.
• Same issues as Paper Jiffies and RUMs
• Those jiffies get cut open easily for reasons unknown. Could be something happening in ship dock, or could be that the AA from an SC cut a shuttle through and unloaded it and it got ripped in the process.
• Spills

The Carton Wrap Boxes:

• Seal not closed all the way
• Other boxes puncture through
• Box crushed by another box

In general, AFE boxes, the ones with multiple shipments in them, are notorious for having one item spill on all the other contents inside of them. To me they are the most common offenders in the sort center problem solve world. But that's all I have to say on here.

I'm starting my training in the sortation center tomorrow and wondering what should I wear? Safety shoes yes of course, but I assume casual, but not sloppy is okay? So can I wear a graphic t-shirt and some jeans and call it a day?

And after that what do people, especially my fellow ladies, wear day to day? Are yoga pants or leggings with an oversized tshirt okay or is that too casual?

Anyone work at TPA1 or TPA4? I’m looking to transfer to Tampa when my lease ends. Says no spots for everything, but curious about the sites 👀🫣

I'll be starting as a Delivery Station Associate from 1:20am - 11:50am and don't know what to expect. I worked briefly at a Sortation Center a few years ago and absolutely hated it. I then worked at an XL Delivery Station for a little under a year and it was pretty chill, I didn't mind it at all.

What can I expect going back to Amazon for this position? I haven't worked in an Amazon warehouse for about 3 years at this point, and I'm kind of out of shape. Lol

Or is it pretty-much a crapshoot for everyone?? Starting to wonder, "Wtf's the point?", esp. since I got rejected, recently, for a 3rd time in a row (though I could've sworn I was a lot more-thorough and -careful that time when making my selections)! :(

Hi,

My site is offering two day (20hrs) Sun-Mon schedule 6-4pm.

Am I capped at 20? Or will I have option to pick up shifts like flex. Ok Sun/Monday guaranteed and I get benefits.

Thank you.

I know it’s only part time but is it difficult waking up at an awkward time? Did you feel drained or exhausted? I would prefer 11:30pm-4:30am so i could go to sleep late not wake up earlier but it’s not available 😩

Looking for any info on what its like working at mci9. Its closer to my house and my locations is closing at the end of july.
