    Genuinely; I wonder what happened to this person.

    Did amazon/their supervisor recognize a potential crisis and give this person support, or did they just throw the book at them and fire them on the spot. I’m sure we can all guess what’s more likely; but that’s not guaranteed.

    Whichever it was, I hope they’re alright and not spiralling, or worse… Adult life is hard.

      Amazon is not a company you give the benefit of the doubt.

      They straight up do not allow their employees to piss.

        $54 BILLION in profit (2024) and can’t let employees be alive and have physical and emotional challenges.

        Fuck Amazon. imagine what we could be if companies just treated people like people instead of abusing them to be currency vacuums. This timeline sucks, greed is pure lunacy.

          I know people who work for amazon tech.

          They love it. They love the cutthroat work environment. I have a brother who used to work for a company like that, and all his jobs afterward he hated because they were ‘boring’ and ‘not competitive’ and he ended up quitting them all because he wanted everything to be blood sport. Now he is depressed and unemployed and puts all his rage into being a volunteer football coach.

          They would make more money long term by not being pieces of shit, they just can’t help but let greed get in the way of money. It’s a mental illness at that level.
