How Amazon Delivers On One-Day Shipping
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 май 2024
- Prime Day, Amazon's biggest shopping event, is here, and now one-day shipping is the norm for tens of millions of items available during Amazon's Prime Day event, which runs from July 15 to July 16. To succeed at this rapid delivery, Amazon spends tens of billions of dollars every year and employs 250,000 workers in its U.S. warehouses. The process is an incredible challenge, and Amazon has faced criticism about working conditions at every step of the process. Watch the video to see what happens when you buy a Prime-eligible item on Amazon.com.

How Amazon Delivers On One-Day Shipping
One day kids will think that the Amazon rain forest was named after the company.
Wait is it not???
Ok boomer
one day the Amazon rain forest might not even exist if we're not careful
Honestly I think Amazon should commit to help save its namesake rainforest. At least make their existence in this world a bit less destructive.
@@lalakuma9 Jeff Bezos recently announced a $10 billion investment to start the Bezos Earth Fund. 🌎 ♥

Amazon: Check under your pillow. We knew you wanted it 3 days before you knew.

Haha
What if I order a chair or something?
AppleRain Look under you. You’re already sitting on it!
I loved how this turned from learning about the packaging and shipping towards worker safety and exploitation
Ikfr 😂😂
and there is still people defending billionaires saying they create jobs. At what cost?
That eyeroll the VP made when asked the safety question is very telling.
heck I didn't even look when he did that, I was listening and I could tell in the tone. He feels safety is fine as is and that he should not be bothered. Very rude.
I caught that and thought it was funny as hell. He was like, ugh, fk y ou.
Dam they really spent 9 billion because we cant wait 2 days
If they dont someone else will, they control the e commerce space so it's there job to innovate and expand. They make so much money per minute
Good. Nothing but upside for me.
if you don't maintain decreasing the waiting time, it will increase instead.
Tf is with your profile pic LOL
Thats what a lot of these people and politicians don’t understand. Amazon invest alot in itself make the business bigger and better. Employing more people, better service, better pay etc. while paying nothing is absurd I dont believe in overtaxing
Amazon 10 years from now: "Our AI algorithm detected that you will buy this smart watch next Tuesday so we delivered it to you by drone a week in advanced. Thank you for thinking about Amazon."

Neat. i always assumed they sacrificed an employee, to fuel a giant cannon they shot your package out of, strait to your door.
Lmao
They still do that
😆
no cannon necessary, we would just toss the boxes, electronics and everything about 10 feet onto a conveyor and then stuff it all into a bag and then kick that bag to the white vans. The only sacrifice was our sanity and hope for humankind.
No. After you place an order, an employee will spawn with your package nearby and deliver it to you.
I don't use Prime and I'm more than happy to pay extra for delivery as well as waiting a few extra days for my package to arrive as I care about the drivers safety and well being. Thank you to all the delivery drivers delivering throughout the pandemic.
I don’t think that’s how it works. The driver will deliver so and so amount of products a day regardless of if you buy prime or not.
@Tom Smith right lol. Prime is best
But this is how they get you prime is 14 bucks for the month depending on how many orders you get you can end up paying more than that in shipping so it's cheaper just to get prime
Dude, you are fooling yourself lol.
Well... As a ex Amazon driver during the pandemic, I'll say you're heart's in the right place(now if only Bethos, or however it's spelled, had his heart there too 😂)
Screw 1 day delivery, when I click place an order the item should appear in my hand.

What Gene Rodenberry didn't tell us is that every time you order a cup of tea from a replicator, Amazon automatically charges your credit card for it. Luckily, the returns have been improved as well, so that when you put the empty cup back into the replicator to be disintegrated, you get your cup deposit back. The Enterprise cleaning crew probably makes a few extra cents a day picking up coffee cups that have been forgotten on tables and sticking them back into the replicator for the deposit.

Capitalism needs one day shipping.
@@Mikasks How? How does it make a difference regarding money if it's one days or three days?
@@loathespolitics6254 it’s psychology. Online shop is like being in a huge supermarket, you’ll buy things you don’t need. The one day shipping gives instant gratification, so it amplifies consumerism.
It might not work on you, but it works on a lot of other people. It feeds on society’s over-consumerism.
That dude answering most of the questions has the face of someone who knows how to answer questions from the media in a disarming way.
One million hours of safety training basically means everyone watched a 3 minute safety video and was told to get back to work.
I'm in 3 minutes sounds about right Amazon is hiring grown-ups not little kids..
And! What about all of the years before? Like, cool they've just raised your wages and started training. Does that mean they're no longer accountable for the years prior?
Most delivery drivers here don’t even watch the safety videos.
@@Mr_Techroid lmao what about know how to be safe around the machinery? Most of it isn’t common sense and you’d need atleast some background knowledge to ve more safe around them.
Amazon don’t train lmao even the drivers
In 20+ years we will say: "When I was young we had to wait for DAYS to receive our package!"
We had to actually go to the store😂
When I was young, I had to wait 7-14 days. Later in my life, I had to wait 2 full days. Right now I only need to wait 1 day.
We waited days for quality goods now we get cheap junk in one day. Awesome. That's progress
When I was a kid I had to wait to log into the Internet.
Like writing a letter
Not sure how much this helps the drivers, but not only do I always take those Mini-surveys and leave 10/10 positive reviews, but I also try my absolute best to bundle all of my orders together so that they all arrive on the same day/time. I have a lot of respect for the drivers, and after seeing how much stress they are under while on the job? I'll always try to return the love and so I hope these small gestures can go a long way! :)

One-Day shipping only if you live close enough to ship in one day.
12:43 Insane how he dodged the question by saying they meet expectations (but not necessarily saying it is reasonable)
Prime has to start shipping with smaller boxes. I bought a battery the other day for my camera and it came in a box big enough to ship 100 batteries.
esty van the reason for this is due to federal regulations on the shipment of anything with certain types of battery which also require specific labels that are a regulated size as well.
Then they'll ship something massive in one of those crappy little bubble wrap envelopes..
esty van who buys batteries online lmao
KWShado it’s not just batteries. it’s everything that includes batteries. like phones or wireless earbuds.
@deee dawwwggg I do photography so I often buy batteries that are very specific and hard to find in generic stores. lol, it's great how people like to make assumptions.
Kids now days won't know the struggle of waiting at the door for 5 to 7 BUSINESS days... as in not Saturday or Sunday
You will if you order something from Wish 😂trust me, I've waited over a month before
What is that?
I think they still will.
Young people might get many things delivered (like my roommate gets most of her monthly groceries delivered from the local Save On Food grocery store) but most people won't buy everything from Amazon or thru delivery companies. I think even in the future most people will still mostly just walk/bike/drive to a store like normal people to save money buying groceries in bulk and/or to get some fresh air and hang out with friends and family.
Like a Best Buy near the city I live in in Vancouver, Canada is now less than half the size of the old one. Its a nice place to window shop thru and to occasionally buy stuff while you hang out with friends.
Or those young people won't shell out for Prime. I'm perfectly content to wait between 2 days to a week to get an item. I rarely buy things. Usually its just esoteric things like a cell phone power cord or an HDMI cable. Or expensive purchases like a new cellphone. In those cases if I want something delivered faster I'll just pay $5 more for faster delivery for that one item. I suspect many people are similar.

I dont live in a big city so I'm used to getting my packages in a few days to a week. However, the last order I placed was mailed in several different packages and took from 3 days to a week & a half. I've noticed for me, that the ones they ship through the Post Office are usually the ones that take the longest to arrive. I had 2 different packages from that last order go through the P.O. One pkg took a week & a half & went from a suburb of Mpls., up to my town, transferred to another carrier and then shipped back down to a different suburb of Mpls. Called to talk to someone (Took forever to finally get ahold of a live person!) and was finally told it was mistakenly marked as being in my town but it actually was not. (Never got an explanation where it really was.) Then, the second pkg was finally shipped and again came up to my town and again, transferred to another carrier and shipped off to a different area north of me. (Do you think it was a mistake again?) That pkg took about a week to get to me. I don't know if they're out to get me or if someone at the Post Office here is an idiot. Whatever, it's almost impossible to complain about them through Amazon. They are distancing themselves farther & farther away from their customers!
Next year:
Jeff Bezos is going to clone himself so that he can "personally" delivery every Amazon package to your house.

Being a former Amazon employee, I only came across them once, but there were about 40 of them.
I just recently placed a order from Amazon at 10:00 am on a Thursday and received a photo text showing that the package was delivered 3-hours later at 1:00 pm . Amazing speed !
Wow, we are really spoiled. I ordered on line and they apologized for delivery running a few hours late. I didn't care. People pay a fortune, at times, for fast delivery, though the need is not there. I ordered from Wal-Mart once, and part of the order was hand delivered to my door 90 minutes later. That was freaky. Speed costs money, generally, and we waste a lot on air travel for things that aren't perishable or that urgent...

I used to buy almost anything and everything off Amazon because of how incredibly convenient the two-day shipping was, and how amazing the one-day shipping was for anything over $35. It seems that they’ve gotten rid of it, and their fastest shipping has been 4-5 business days for the last year. Common businesses are now the ones doing one-day deliveries and curbside pick up, so I don’t know how much longer Amazon will last.
i have a feeling its gonna last a very long time but i wish it wouldnt

So if an individual has a medical condition, that going to the bathroom they'll get fired for affecting rates? Perhaps why there are more younger workers?
As a driver, the only couriers who survive for more than 6 months are all under 35 males with a few exceptions. In our whole 60 man crew we have 2 late 50's men, who of which are insanely hard workers, we had a 50 year old woman who had to quit due to the strenuous working conditions, i've never seen another female last more than 3 months. The bulk of our crew is 21 - 30. This isnt a job for broken, weak bodies unfortunately.

The single problem with all this stuff, is that its all based on consumer sales. America is no longer a manufacturing hub, its a consumer hub, but how long can people buy without good paying jobs? Eventually the fun will come to an end. Credit is great, but its also not real money. If people dont have jobs, and or jobs with good or better pay, then it wont be a soft landing, it will be a crash landing when the fuel runs out.

Those 2 shipping companies are not allowed to merge since they make up most of the shipping done in the U.S. it would be a monopoly. You must be getting your information from an unreliable source.
It's always nice when other companies beat amazons time. I have ordered many items from other tech sites on 3-5 day shipping only to be surprised when it came the next day. Microsoft is a good example of this. I don't now the reason but since amazon all deliveries on all sites seem to be quicker. well except from china via Bang Good as that takes 2 weeks - 4 months.
Honestly we need to be grateful for even having clean water in our sink and not be too upset when our Amazon package doesn’t come in one single day like dude let’s have gratitude here and not be greedy.
Same problem at USPS. I work there currently as a clerk.
1) Safety, Safety, Safety First!
2) When you follow their safety rules they bring you in the office to find out why you're so damn slow and can't behave like a robot.
1) "Take your breaks, you gotta take your breaks."
2) Back in the office, "Why aren't you making the numbers? You do know we can let you go!"
1) Watch these lengthy safety videos. Safety signs all over the building. Safety Proud!!! :)
2) Back in the office, why aren't you a damn machine??
So you ignore their safety rules just to make the magic numbers they pulled out of their ass, and now they are happy, "You're doing better now." :)
You meet your 1,000,000 hours of safety training, designed the place to be safer, posted plenty of safety posters, and drilled it deep that you must be safe. But you want us to keep the pace of a machine.
Take your proper breaks, go to the restroom when you need to. Slow down when you're out of breath, do exactly according to safety rules, and the result is "Why aren't you making numbers? If you don't meet the numbers, you will be fired."
The result: Ignoring safety rules, running instead of walking, out of breath and still working, stressed the hell out, but I'm behind and need to meet the standards.
Day after day you meet their numbers and the expectation stays because "See, it can be done."
Reason why I left USPS as a carrier. No regrets. And the supervisors were incredibly rude and disrespectful. Of course, this was just at the post office I worked at.
:(
Same crap different toilet, Im currently in UPS about to go for my 3rd year, we are just numbers! The only reason they care about safety is so the mules(us) can keep working. Oh also because they dont want gov. to be on their case. Atleast we have the Union.... Haaaaa extortion!
This is beyond fascinating. I'm guessing they were having you guys working between 9 and 11 hour shifts. And if that was the case I then ask, why not just hire more workers/staff so that they can work shorter hours(i.e. 3--5)?
Or just hire more staff so that when you go on break there's someone there to fill the gap.
I honestly hate when big companies view their workers like numbers....

I worked at a Prime Shipping warehouse years ago, you know how we got you your items in 1 day? We would open a full truck of boxes and Instead of grabbing each box individually and putting it on the conveyor carefully we would topple the stack over so it crashed onto the conveyor and then we just grab the ones on the ground and toss them on too. The supervisors did not care and neither did we since the only punishment we would receive was for not being fast enough.
yes there graphics cards and motherboards that would just be tossed across the room in order to get it to you on time. It was disgusting.
The Flex drivers are the ones that make next day possible..Their the Uber drivers for Amazon..And that is smart..
I would add. I have made a purchase at 10:00am... It was in my porch at 4:00pm the same day...

3:50 That’s all i needed to know, Thanks!!!
lol he said fully electric drones like there's a lot of drones that arent electric
There are some hybrids and some gas drones.
gig economy... not thank.. i don't want sick people near my house...
Maybe he meant automated
He just wanted to point out it was green. It does sound ridiculous, tho

You explained everything about Amazon deliveries EXCEPT for how the manage one-day shipping.
You did everything EXCEPT watch the video

What are you an American? They just told you. The Flex drivers make it possible..They can be at the hub 24/7... The Uber driver for Amazon... And that is smart...As you have an unlimted supply of people wanting to earn extra income...
I know people that do it. As they get off work and there headed that ways to start with. So why not get paid to drive home...
Working in an Amazon warehouse can be tough. The job often involves picking heavy items for 12 hours a day, with a target of at least 300 items per hour. If you don't meet this target, you'll be asked to work even harder. You don't even have the luxury of taking a bathroom break, as you'll be closely monitored and risk losing your job if you take too long.
However, once you start working there and get used to the routine, it's hard to quit. Many of the workers are between 17-25 years old OR 39 and above .that they have responsibilities like paying for their house, car, and other bills. So, it's important to have a plan and not waste your time if you're thinking about working there.
I started working there when I was 20 years old, and now I'm 23, and still working there.
Stop complaining. Go find a different job if you hate it so much
When you have 10 mints before it changes dates to the 9th to 10th 😂😂 amazon driver: Euro beat starts playing while they drift down the streets at 3AM in the morning
"we have break rooms" not one person there
Exactly. Even when you have one you only get 15 minutes and even that you go over a minute and you get sent home
Brake room. Break room.
You're paid to work not to take breaks lol
@@aac_tda when you make more than minimum wage you better keep performance unlike walmart you get 2, 15 minute breaks 1 hour lunches and you can be late without repercussions id say amazon has a better business standard than walmart which leads to lazy workers all over the store
It's break
I sincerely applaud the Amazon workers. I didn't even last one day there (I ended up getting a job somewhere else). Bravo to all of you!
My sister passed out working there. She said its miserable and she was only part time
My sister could not get hired for amazon
Only Heavily obese people say this. If you haven't worked out a day in your life then picking up a box and taping it closed can be hard
U need to go a 3rd world country and see how working conditions are and see only few complains cuz theres bigger fears than that thats UNEMPLOYMENT in a poor country its x100 worse
Wow, I like this. Thanks for show me how Amazon shipped an order I really appreciate it.😊😊
It is like a military operation with time bound hard work with precision and accuracy. One cannot expect a worker to be lazy or weak. Only physically and mentally strong workers are preferred. Since military like risk is not involved, the worker need not be daring like a soldier, so payment can be less. So it's like a soldier minus risk.
1:21 Is it just me or are those packages having more fun than I’ve had my entire life?
lol
You my friend need to have some more fun
Just you.
Hahaha, I know, right ? 🤣
Meanwhile in Toy Story 2.
Its not really 1 day shipping when the **USPS** driver purposely DOESNT STOP by your house and says _"Delivery Attempted."_
>:(
FierceFX LoL that never happened to me lol
This has happened to me. I hate usps
Reasons why I have trust issues
Does the mailman not stop at your house everyday anyways?
Past few years, my packages arrived without anyone home receiving it. They just call u to notify.
"making sure the customer's happy" he says that like every person on earth does not know that corporations do not give a flying F about the customer.
It's crazy to think that sometimes when I order something, it comes from a completely different side of the country within like a day.
Why did this get recommended to me when my package took a week to come in.
Same it was late 2 days
@@jesustakethewheel8846 mine had 2 packages one were 2 days early and one was one day early
Exactly! Prime is not what it used to be
Maybe the pilots went on strike again.
For me waiting 2-3 weeks is normal... Would be weird to order something and then just see it delivered the next day
Imagine showing this video to someone in the 80s
Jackle Smithda3rd then think 20 years from now, well look back and think “we used to wait for days for our packages”
Video not available for download. Sorry.
Lol i dont live in usa or any big company and amazong or ups dont really exist here so packages still take like 1 week to deliver
Why?
One of the thinks forget is the insurance over the product; I can tell you how much items are destroy for insurance and is not just amazon , microsoft too but that part is more difficult to find how insurance policy work on it
i was amazon client for about 18 years , i use it just 2 times , 1 time 2002 and 1 time 1n 2019
Wal Mart comes out with 2 day shipping and Amazon says "hold my beer" 👍
Meanwhile in the UK you can now get same day shipping 😃
@@becomingfr33 We have delivery options available within a few hours in US via Prime Now. This video is just for standard shipping non Prime Now.
Walmart jumped on the 1 day shipping train as well.
But with Walmart it's free 2 day delivery and you don't need any sort of membership like Prime, so I prefer using them.
walmart has free one day delivery on orders over $35 which is low. and they hire people who go through interviews unlike amazon where literally a felon could get a job delivering your package.
10:28 "Drones that can react to flailing hands and screaming voices". Never has a single sentence been more terrifying.
AngeredFox
Well it you calmly walk towards it and throw a net over it i think it will be confused enough 😂😂😂
I guess amazon thinks that there will be lots of people living outside and rioting in the future.
Rest assured. ruclips.net/video/8RzvkzbFDGE/видео.html
@@randompizza14 people getting evicted due to Corona virus and race riots. You were right
"Drones that can react to flailing hands and screaming voices"
That isn't how you build a delivery drone, this is how you build a robotic overlord.
5:34 bro he just made the box like magic
This is scary for all those working in retail and similar jobs that require no actual skill. 30% of the people today will be doomed in a decade when technology replaces their work. On the other hand it’s an incentive to master valuable skills that can’t be replaced w tech
E PD They have to adapt or starve. There’s a lot that can be done, such as selling on Amazon. 👌🏽
Jaesha haha smooth Amazon plug! More like starting up your own Amazon in emerging markets, the potential is endless
This is why we restructure the public education system to teach people more useful things at a younger age. Basic programming should be a requirement to graduate if we want to future proof the next generation.
Yes this scary not all humans are created with the same ability. And even everybody is a programmer how many do you need in one company. The govt should tax this company heavy to give subsidy for low earning jobs. Unless the govt want them to die.
E PD it’s okay they all got degrees they’ll be fine
It's not the fact that you don't have bathrooms Amazon.....what the man said was that you instituted policies that press people to not take bathroom breaks at all because of how far they are away from the bathroom in a building and how that affects their scan quota.
.....any Amazon employee knows that this is what Amazon does without question.
@@davidqatan yessss leave the company
I know some people who work there for the insurance plan. “Just leave” is not an option for everyone and that’s a reality we need to face.
Thank you for getting what I said! I print off OSHA regulations and labor laws and hand them to management just to remind them of their obligations to employees, but most don't know these things and are abused nonstop!
@@davidqatan we're all in this together, why throw other people under the bus? That's a sick mentality!
And for the drivers, the dispatchers urge you to take your lunch but later complain that you're behind on your route. Also, good luck finding a restroom while on route so go ahead and pee in a bottle.
Who else is watching this while waiting for a package?
It’s so crazy….. they’re huge…. I always receive my packages earlier than expected.
I live about 10 mins from an amazon fulfilment centre, the delivery time is insane!

Interviewer: “Are workers expected to work at an unreasonable pace?”
Amazon: “Weell...”
I am part that supply chain that delivers boxes to Amazon. The plant makes the boxes, our trucking company is contracted out with the boxes on the trailers to put it to a third party site to keep it at their docks. They unload the trailer and keep the boxes until Amazon makes an order in which the third party site loads the trailer with the specific boxes they want. We then take the trailer and drop it off at Amazon with the paperwork. It depends on what Amazon wants. They could want 3 trailers a day and in peak season meaning November and December they would want 6 to 8 a day. Whatever we drop that trailer all I know is their yard driver will take the trailer put it in a dock and then the fork lift driver will unload it. What happens after that I do not know nor do I care. I do my part and that it's it.
I still get excited when I order prime same day delivery
No joke I once got a packaged delivered from amazon by I guy in u-Haul truck! 😂
Same here, it was the funniest thing.
Yea those are paid extra help for overflow for busy times .
That was FedEx. I use to work there. The drivers are contracted, and some deliver out of u-haul.
Joseph Kreifels II
Amazon too does that!! I use to work for Amazon for over a year, we had plain white vans, u-haul vans and amazon vans
@@mikeyg9833 Thanks. As stated in this video, Amazon drivers are also contracted.
Damn I'd wait a day or two if the workers were paid a living wage and treated like humans
They are started off at 15/$ hour and get crazy good benefits. Chill out Karen
virtue signalling anyone?
@@Ammar88ist As a fellow worker it's also within my own interest for labour to be treated well. Dont know why I'd want to flex my "virtue" on this YT comment section but whatever
@@Barrian14 not my experience with consumers
Pay starts out at $15/hr for L1 positions. I'm in an L3 position getting $17/hr. If you look at the cost of living for single renting, single workers nationwide regardless of company would have to be making at least $22.50/hr. Benefits are crazy good and cheap. You have the option to purchase Amazon stock from your paycheck. Amazon matches up to 4% for your 401(k).
The ones who say we don't get a livable wage either don't work for Amazon or work for Amazon and not good with money.
Several years ago, signed up for warehouse job in November for holiday demand. Went to orientation. Waited, waited, waited. Then I get a call in February. 4 months later.
Nope. Already moved on.
i once ordered some fabric on amazon and since I'm a prime member I got the same day delivery option and I saw that the tracker said "your order has departed the facility in New York" and then 4 hours later i checked it again and it said "your order has arrived at a facility in Phoenix, AZ and is out for delivery"" and i got my order few minutes later.... like daaammm 😮😮
