I can't comment on packing, only driving, but I think it's a sweet gig.
Shill
Genuine question, do you or your family buy things on Amazon? Have to be pretty stupid to call someone a shill that works for them. Next time your Amazon delivery driver drops off a package for you, how about you run out there and scream at them for being a shill, you fucking moron. Because that's what you're doing right now.
You're a shill because you have no problem defending Amazons shitty actions but when someone mentions how shit their position was you say "can't comment". Not even sympathetic just pure indifference towards your fellow workers. The hallmark trait of a corporate shill is the lack of solidarity towards your fellow workers
So what is the point of getting angry and name calling here? Why did you copy paste this multiple times? This whole situation is skeptical here, I leave a reasonable reply and come back a few hours later and it's madness in here, or perhaps it was already and I didn't notice.
But real talk here, you said 24 and hour for truck driving? Can anyone tell me if that's a normal price?
c&p
I do agree that people need to put their money with where their mouth is if they think amazon is an unethical company, and I think it's a good thing to call it out.
And go where? Walmart? Kroger? There's literally nowhere better for most of us.
I'm really sorry to hear that. I know we're both trying my best, I guess I just have more options where I am
what's alternative
What do mean? Just anywhere else, literally just do a web search that reads like
"cordless vacuum" -amazonand click around.how do you find ethical alternative
Oh hi, sour. Didn't notice it was you.
Just do your best. Search about what you care about and click and read around the internet. ethicalconsumer.org looks like a decent reference for brands. And here's the first result for a search for "ethical alternatives to amazon."
Yeah some brands or places will disappoint you, but you live and learn and continue. I just pretend it's the 90s. It's not like I was starving, or couldn't find games to play, or movies to watch back then. I just couldn't press a button have the world brought to my door. It was fine. And there were fewer billionaires.
PS my links are geared to what I'm interested in. YMMV, so like maybe the eco stuff takes a backseat to the ethical treatment of workers for you, and that's cool
