Amazon

[Staydryitsraining]

heres another interesting tidbit, amazon recently(this week) has poached a couple of employees from the airline side. they offered them a 47% pay increase over what they were making, a moving allowance, and amazon stock.

What airline? The 4th hand information passed here as 1st hand is hilarious.

 

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

Absolutely. I’ve seen them make a right turn from the left hand lane on a two lane (one way) street, nearly clipping a car in the right lane. Poor guy who got cut off was nearly rear ended when he had to slam on his brakes. “GPS says turn now!? OK!”

You can't looks at the GPS and pay attention to the road.

From the airline side of who? UPS?

Yeah I guess my I shoulda stated from UPS airlines didn’t realize I needed to make it that clear.

Considering that I work for the airline and work with the people who were bragging about taking the job I’d consider it 1st hand not 4th hand.

everything must be made clear. Checklists, pilot!

I wonder what these companies are going to do with their fleet of delivery vehicles

They were being leased... Amazon will just give them to the next subcontractor who won't try to find a union for their employees

Im definitely not a pilot, I unfortunately lack the God complex it requires to be a pilot.

Well, they do refer to passengers as souls.

Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos pledges $10 billion to fight climate change

Better than giving it to his employees?

Amazon Will Put UPS Out of Business

“
Union vs Non-Union

UPS is union-based with union costs and pension costs.

UPS is the single largest employer in the Teamsters Union. The UPS contract is the largest collective bargaining agreement in North America.

UPS will not be able to compete with Amazon on costs. UPS is doomed.”

this may be tru
