lol good
stop selling chinese counterfeit crap in the "Supplied by Amazon" stock, such as laptop PSUs that have bad capacitors and get hot to the touch before blowing up in a few hours and microSD cards that claim to be 32GB but are actually 32MB with spoofed filesystem descriptors.
Maybe stop creating sadistic Kafkaesque workplaces and stop Jewing the workers.
maybe pay your workers a living wage?
Amazon's warehouses pay a fairly decent wage for a warehouse. The one near me has had the effect of taking workers away from all of the other low-rent, high stress jobs, especially the ones that want people with degrees and experience for $10 an hour. Some of the other warehouses around here are paying more than Amazon just to attract workers, and if you can get into maintenance it's not difficult to land 50k a year.
There's a glass foundry in a nearby small city that's always had a lock-in on workers in the area because there wasn't anything else. It's one of those where you have to apprentice for a decade before you're going to earn much more than minimum wage. They're casting their nets a lot farther these days, and I had the pleasure of telling a recruiter that called me that why would I drive an hour to work there for $9 when I can drive 15 minutes and make $15-16 at Amazon? The lady was just kind of dazed in her reply, I imagine she got that a lot.
