    Amazon Instacart FedEx etc strikes today
    What do you guys think about this move? Their employers aren't doing enough to protect them. Provide protective gear while Americans exercise their rights not to wear masks in public or at home. What say you?

                  Yeh but it hurts a company to do this. Those michiganders who were protesting dont want a job as an essential

                    Do you even think before you post?

                    There are help wanted and hiring signs in every place that is open despite 30 million unemployed. There is nobody else stepping in.

                          It's a terrible move on their part.

                          Might make a small point, might win the daily news cycle, might make them feel good.

                          But....when they're due for a raise or try to collectively bargain or ask for health coverage or increase in defined benefits guess what management gonna say...

                          ..."sorry guys. We missed on earnings, our stock is down, we simply can't afford it right now because of that strike in Q2"

                          You cannot give the opposition an opening like this. Negotiating 101. It's why all unions fail except monopolies like Government and Entertainment.

                                  not speaking of amazon but simular. Orderd from wallys online last night never got conformation e-mail(normally happens right away with any venue), phoned customer service is over an hour wait time. Forgot write order # down they have a record based off phone#. Wallys need to implement a callback feature which they don't have right now. Last time I had to do this was not more than a 5 minute wait time WTF???

                                      In the past two months 30 million Americans filed for unemployment money. Amazon, Wal Mart, Uber Eats, etc, have had a million job openings. Americans are unwilling to work at jobs right now.

                                        Anyone in management that is that hung up on the past, instead of looking ahead to future business is already doing more to screw over the company than any strike by the workers could ever do.

                                                          No unemployment either

                                                          Don't let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya
                                                          Except you can't fire all of them at the same time... Would devastate your business.

                                                            Brock and jj have zero chance of ever managing any business, yet they both think they should sit at home and be the one to decide how Amazon runs their business.

                                                            Also: "You are" is shortened to you're. Remove the a and replace it with an apostrophe. "You are" not so retarded as to forget that every day.

                                                              That is exactly what they are doing. Maybe the next day or the next month they'll want to work again and I'm sure Amazon will welcome them back with open arms.

Orderd from wallys online last night never got conformation e-mail(normally happens right away with any venue), phoned customer service is over an hour wait time. Forgot write order # down they have a record based off phone#. Wallys need to implement a callback feature which they don't have right now. Last time I had to do this was not more than a 5 minute wait time WTF???

                                                                Now the post office tracking page only updates 1 or 2x daily wtf???

I've only had a few one day delays with more than a dozen deliveries in the past month between FedEx and UPS. BAU.
