Documents Show Amazon Is Aware Drivers Pee in Bottles and Even Defecate En Route, Despite Company Denial

If employees actually had to pee in bottles, Amazon said, “nobody would work for us.” That’s a lie.

Country? that's the norm for city routes as well. It is what it is. ...

I agree, but if you're an outsider who doesn't know this, you'd at least be able to reason that not all drivers have access to a restroom.

City routes have had more options before covid-19. But a lot of times when you got to go the best option is that bottle in the cargo area.

Just wait until they unionize in AL, Amazon is going to be pushing a media narrative "Look, the union is useless, they're still peeing in bottles" why be outraged about this, a thing that's extremely easy and convenient and universal among truck drivers, and not any of the actual great benefits of having a union and ty things Amazon does smdh

A "Pea" problem?

Like Blackeyed peas? Purple hulled peas? English Peas? SweetPea?

Pea problem? Try fixing the soil. Inoculate the seeds with some rhizobia bacteria. This will allow nodulation.

The peas will draw nitrogen from the air and fix it into the soil.

it's ridiculous. If even their insiders are peeing in bottles, and they are, that's totally messed up. amazon's denials are pedantic that they're not ordering their drivers to pee in bottles. the drivers are just doing it, because it's a totally normal thing to do. the critics are bags but so is amazon. so i'll just enjoy watching it play out no matter what.
