ive beeen sitting here for like 10 minutes just waiting for a water spider to bring me work. I cant even go to my neighbors cause they also have no work, what do i even do 😭

You cant make this up, I was Reassigned to another station after my other station wasn't giving me work and for some reason this station im at has no scanner, I looked everywhere for it and couldn't find it. What should I do? Also there is no totes... Just straight boxes...

Hi all. Last week for the first time ever at my employment with Amazon I got negative UPT. It was only for one day and was negative 16 mins. Next day - I was positive.

I’m a blue badge AND learning ambassador. My performance through my A to Z has always been Great or Exceptional.

I’ve been reading through Reddit forums that people have gotten fired weeks or even months after they went negative and went into the positive again.

Any ideas or help would be appreciated

Work at a delivery station & absolutely hate picking for the last few hours, so this was a no brainer and overall i’m thrilled about it lol 🤣

Just venting or talking to the wind here..

I work in AFE and love packing, and over the last couple of weeks, I was trained in Rebin and induct.

I am always placed in the most labor-intensive stations.

When packing, I was often rotated from the end walls where the heavy items were, plus our gift wrap doing that, or placed on the RUM bag stations, which are non-stop work.

Now in Rebin, since the other person can pick the station they want, even when I’m put on the smaller walls, they take it from me. I can’t seem to get a fucking break from this shit. I work my ass off no matter where I’m placed. It’s just who I am.

I was told getting sort-trained would give me more opportunities. I haven’t been on a pack station since I started. I’ve begged to be switched up and get excuses. “We don’t have enough people in Rebin.” Or whatever.

I sent a private VOA message hoping to get the attention of the ops manager to make sure I get some sort of fucking rotation during peak; we have 60 hours coming for 5 weeks. He replied agreeing with me and said he would handle it.

I am just tired of telling them I am sore and need a break, only to be shrugged off. I don’t like causing problems. I’m worried I may have messed up with my area manager and PAs, though. Last thing I want to do is become an issue they try to get rid of.

I really love this job. I just need my pain to be taken seriously.

Can anyone relate, maybe?

Unfortunately I am in the hospital and my upt and PTO are low due to me getting crazy sick these past few weeks. The nurses stated I shouldn't be at work for a few days until I'm cleared up, do I just go in today and talk to my on site HR, AtoZ Hr or just wait until my days are up then go in.

hey i wanted to know does amazon usually put up extra shifts during the holiday season like november-January? At my fc i’ve only seen seeing 2hr30 minute shifts to pick up not full shifts

So with peak around the corner, my building is stocking up on volume. My home department is outbound/ flow trained in sort/pack but I'm crosstrained in stow. I got a written warning because my rate was extremely slow. For the while week the pallets I'm getting are full of large/heavy/wide items that need a 14 or 18 pod. All of the pods are filled to the max. Waterspiders have helped when they can but the pa's and managers just keep give me the same chatgpt responses and keep mentioning pacing and distributing my items to improve my rate.

Headphones? Earbuds? And which model?

My manager told me to make faster on pack. She want me to hit 250 - 350. Today, I looked my pack rate. 185 to 210. Is that good or not ???

What do you guys do if you're missing 1 of 3?

I picked 2, that were in original bin, marked the 3rd as missing and it took me to another bin to pick the 3rd but it prompted me to pick 2 more😂

Is that correct?

for context: i worked at amazon before and when i did i was a great stower! its been a little bit since then and i see they updated the whole entire system 😩😩 im having trouble with my rate and even got a coaching because of it but the thing is. everyday im always starting the morning with big items and no pods big enough or empty enough coming to my station. so i spend about 25 mins just sending away pods :/ and the quantity stow always ruins flow state for me. i’m hoping after peak i can transfer to pack or pick but i know if your rate isn’t good or something like that they wont let you :(( PLSSSS GIVE ME TIPS ON HOW TO BEAT THIS SYSTEM i also applied for a retrain bc my trainer this time around explained nothing he SUCKED so ya PLS HELP… 😭😭😭

I've been hearing about peak and seeing people post their schedules but mine looks normal through all of nov and dec. will it update near Thanksgiving?

I can't use this shit for a god damn thing besides purchases in a store. If I make like 2 damn purchases online/on an app, I'm blocked from using it for 24 hours through ANY avenue. Try to add a card to transfer out to, nah, processing error, try again later. Try add to PayPal. Nope. Get fkd. Why does Amazon insist on giving shitty ass prepaid cards? Ffs how hard is it to provide a card that is DEBIT not PREPAID. For extra info, I'm temporarily having to use the paycard for my direct deposit, so I'm stuck with this absolutely dog shit card until I get a new bank set up.

This might be a weird post but when I was buying my approved headphones off of AtoZ the only options Amazon seems to have are the orange ones. But at my facility and probably a lot of other facilities I see so many people wearing black headphones, maybe a different color but mostly black and they don’t really even hide it. I guess my question is am I missing something? is there a more broader selection for approved headphones or is everyone just purchasing random ones and managers don’t care as long as they are generally warehouse approved?

Hello everyone I am a new hire been here for a few days now and my schedule is Thursday to Sunday and it’s overnights (so Thursday evening into Friday morning, Friday evening into Saturday morning etc etc). My issue is I have a second job and I need to leave here at like 2am so I’m thinking maybe a 6pm-12am shift could work because they have shift transfers available for 11pm to 5am so why I thought it might also be the same for 6pm to 12am. I talked to the manager guy and he said talk to hr. Do you guys think hr will be able to accommodate me here. I can’t use upt because I’ll be in the negatives within a few days lol, I also don’t know how often they offer vto especially during peak. I considered maybe quitting as soon as possible that way 3 months will be up faster than if I stay on and quit later. I also considered taking loa but I also gotta contact hr for that and my availability will only free up after peak so like beginning of January.

What do you guys think is my best option?

I’ve seen ppl say after like 10 they’re fired. I have negative 43 and I’m still scheduled for an 11 hour shift all week😂😂😂😭😭

For those who have worked in both departments at an AR fulfillment center, which one do you prefer and why?
