‘Everyone is Replaceable’: Death Rattles Oregon Amazon Facility
6 months ago by cm0002 to c/antiwork
Expirenced that working in restaurants, we would see the same people apply, hire, fuck up, fire, repeat. Some worked 4-5 times before being blacklisted with management. Became almost impossible to find help. This was 10 years ago though.
They will hire seasonal workers WITH the job listing, anyone with a pulse that passes a drug test is just in. I remember when I worked there it felt like an overworked Highschool.

We're trying to reduce the numbers of hours a person has to work.
We talk about the end of paid work being mandatory for survival.

That's actually not quite true.
Part of the reason Amazon is so desperate to automate those facilities (aside from the obvious of course) is because in some locals they have actually churned through the entire labor pool and are running out of people.
