    I want Amazon fulfillment center workers to be paid a living wage, but calling some of those jobs “skilled” is stretch.

      The phrase has lost all meaning. People just assume its a personal attack now cause I guess American egos are in decline or something.

      Waxing moon or some shit.

        Instead of reasonable pay, you’re offered a title and persistent lies about career growth. And it feels pretty shitty when you’re confronted with the fact that you’ve invested a bunch of energy in something that won’t pay off.

      Ugh… Dumbasses must’ve been terrible at Tetris.

      But seriously, that box took up so much erroneous space on the transporting vehicle, displacing other boxes that had to move to yet more vehicles. The extra emissions from these failed attempts at protecting the item (which is pushed up against the wall of the box, vulnerable anyways), is sad.
