Guys i am a driver for amazon. I can confirm we cant take proper breaks. We are constantly being rushed to one house to another. I have personally had to piss in bottles due to the fact that we just dont have time to find a restroom
Is it cuz you have a quota of deliveries to meet per hour? I’ve seen drivers pop into cafes and groceries stores for a bathroom break. Our driver often uses the lobby bathroom. I’m not disputing u, just curious what’s driving the crazy work hours y’all put in.. aside from the obvious of there being a shitton of packages all the time
People in the USA have TAKEN ADVANTAGE of LOW PAID WORKERS in China for years ... and now we want to TAKE ADVANTAGE of LOW PAID WORKERS right here in this country 😒
*so complaining about wage and not the country which drive inflation and price and tax everyone from their paycheck while government official pocketing tax money in the hundred of thousands from the working class?*
If you see it that way. BUT why increase wages ? What’s so skilled full about delivering packages? Og in construction get payed 32$ and that’s barely enough to get by. 32$ to build school. Your kids go too. Hospital we all attend. I don’t see what’s so special about you Amazon WORKERS 🤦🏽♂️
@@Variety1985 I'd say, let these corporate companies go under. Let's get them small local businesses back on track. Bring back the malls and arcades across from the movies so I can smell the popcorn there. We need more places to go in our towns.

So let others that want Better benefits fight and they keep working for something at the end they’ll benefit from. 🤔 that ain’t right. Those that cross the line should be fined from the union once all the teamsters brother go back to work!! Or those that cross the line should not benefit from what others fought for. They should be grandfathered in and keep the regular pay they had while others were on strike 🤷🏾♂️
@@ca2129 Or find another job if the emploer isn't paying you enough. That is literally how it works. No need to buy the union bosses a new mansion or yacht, just quit, if they are really not paying enough for the job then most won't take it and the company will either have to automate or pay more.
No Amazon employees are striking. They are just being harrased and held up by union shills that took seasonal positions to strike. This is just an attemot for O'Brian to get his hands in Bezos pocket so he can buy another mansion or yacht.
They don’t time anything with break, when you take a 15 they say “you’re behind” there’s no bathrooms and it’s even harder for women to pee because they can’t just use a bottle. Terrible conditions need a raise
In Scandinavian countries, they have unions too. But the difference, the company is NOT in opposition, they want to be fair, and the union wants the same, so they mostly work together in harmony, for the benefit of all.
I used to work for a company and they didn't let us take breaks most of the times so we had no choice but to sue them. We did and won a settlement. I am a ride share driver at my spare time and the drivers from Amazon that I pick up tell me they get paid below 20 to drive those vans. MC Donald's and fast food pay 20 and over. Not fair for drivers or everyone working in California. I say they should all get paid at least 20 with this high inflation we all deserve it.
I remember having 10 hour routes within an 8 hr work period back home in Orange County CA, now residing in Everett WA. During my time at Amazon here in Everett along with my time back home delivering around wealthy beachside of South OC, many times where we’d have heavy routes within nearly 200 stops and well over 300 packages. With no knowledge of ur route ofc until u complete ur DVIR. On top of heavy routes doing rescues after ! Heavy routes on top of the need to rush, total disrespect and lack of recognition for the drivers who deliver for Amazon from logistics company like I did. The fact that Amazon is unwilling to recognize drivers from 3rd party companies that help deliver the packages is insane. The drivers are just as much apart of Amazon. A huge part , dealing with inclement weather at times , package thefts, crazy drivers. All while feeling the need to rush cuz Amazon only sees green. They’ve clearly fallen on deaf ears I hope these workers get what they want 💯
They need everything that they are asking for. Bezos is 1 of the richest men on the planet and Amazon is worth Trillions employees deserve a pay raise!!!!
I feel them. My company wouldnt give us better pay & benefits last year, we striked for 1 day & got wat we wanted immediately. I dont order from Amazon or have Prime but they deserve better especially allowed to use the restroom
Unions goal is to get people to vote to get them inside the corporation so they can start sucking money from the company right behind your back. That’s what union fees are and that’s how unions make their money. How else you think union president make so much money? When they get workers higher wages pay increase, union fees goes up as well.
Amazon sure is saying a lot in rebuttal. But nothing about the three times amount of injuries in its warehouses compared to other warehouse businesses. It's obvious that Amazon is using every switch tactic approach instead of addressing the real issues. Nothing new. Amazon is a company that doesn't understand labor. It puts all it's focus on how to make it as easy & uncomplicated for customers to click away in their compulsion to buy. Nothing else matters. Proof is seeing those scabs rushing the picket lines with all those strikers out front of the warehouse. Amazon is still telling the drivers time is still money regardless of who you have to move out of the way in a company van.
@joanndavis4843 This is a good sign. If things are going under for Amazon, then all the businesses can go back to the local small business. People can put more interest in their own towns. Make malls enjoyable again.
If you're unhappy with the job you have and the benefits you get from it, Just LEAVE. You want a better Job? Go to college and get a degree instead of wasting your time with something that's out of your control to change.
they will get replaced, nothing to worry about. Look at the union strike workers demanding a 30% pay raise. They got their raise and insta fired a few weeks later. Pack of fools if you ask me.
This is so unfair, I hope these inhuman jobs get automated as soon as possible, in 2024 people should not be doing these demanding jobs. Amazon needs to invest more in tech
Let’s be realistic for these people, they drive and deliver stuff 9 hours, but they salary is not enough, yet thanks to them a lot of people receive there essentials
Amazon is Greed. Hard work should pay Fed Ex I think pays good 4500 packages on a 53’ semi UPS pays good but super hard work Amazon door delivery is torture Semi Truck Amazon workers quit all the time pay is crap. Costco is super hard work. It looks like what we call hard work is misunderstood Move 4500 packages 500 an hour 9 hours of straight labor Add lunch and breaks 14 hour day. 3am to 5pm Pain labor for one person but someone in a labor supervisor Manager thinks this is ok for a minimum wage worker 5 days a week.
If we wanted free money, we wouldn't be at work, we would be finding other ways to stay afloat. We want a less painful job with more pay. Simple, human, demands

The Teamsters’ press release calling this the ‘largest strike in U.S. history against amazon’ feels like a stretch, lol. Amazon didn’t even exist when the country was founded-let’s keep things in perspective.
I just got a message from Amazon saying my package will arrive later than previously expected. It was supposed to be here today. 😒 it hasn't even shipped out of warehouse. Man they better get those AI robots up & working. Or can i go and pick it up?
At the DBK4 delivery station in Queens, New York, cops swarmed and arrested an Amazon driver who stopped his van in support of the strike. In anticipation of a possible strike at JFK8, police had camped out by the facility in advance. Nonetheless, for six hours picketers slowed the flow of traffic out of the facility to a trickle, letting only one truck through every two minutes. Not okay to arrest people trying to unionize and / or strike. NOT okay!
Once again I need to point out that Employees work for the company and are never entitled to the companies profits. The companies only obligation to an employee is to pay them for the work they have done and any additional benefits that are in there pre-hire employment package. In addition any financial impact a strike has on a company will not be paid by the employer rather it will come out of the companies operations budget which may include layoffs, shorter hours, benefit reductions just to name a few. And finally a company is in the business of making a profit and those profits are not promised to the employee. What do you think. ??? Thanks
Well if the union cares so much about it’s members then they should pay for the salaries while it’s members go on strike since people don’t get paid while on strike. I’m sure teamsters unions make hundreds millions of dollars from its members every year.
So do you want more money? Or do you want better working conditions. Demanding both and at that extreme of hourly rate increase is just going to piss people outside of your bubble off. Not only that but screwing with normal people doesn’t make you’re coworkers or you look great. You’re not going to get any sympathy when others have it far worse than you.
*again and again, "Third-Party worker". know your difference, you do not work under Amazon. You work for your Union which contract for Amazon. Amazon is the "first-party. The Union is the "Second-party" and YOU the worker are the "Third-Party". Get it, you do not work for Amazon but your Union. Go ask your Union to pay you a livable wage.* 🤣
