I have no complaints about prime's two day shipping but having worked at one of these Amazon Fulfilment centers, I'd personally not buy clothing or furry toys, even non perishable food.
The experience up to opening your package is great but it's seeing boxes crumpled up or package nearly destroyed with item inside it intact that really pisses me off but having been a picker before it's really hard to give a shit when you are paid a capped hourly wage walking for 10 hours in steel toe shoe and actively timed against your peers where failing to keep up means termination
I never want to work for Amazon ever again. Not even their software or tech or HQ, it totally ruined it for me. I don't give a shit, it's built on human misery and our escapism through materialism. We are voting with our "things" everytime we shop on Amazon to structurally oppress low-income bracket folks.
But I feel hopeless. I'm chained by their consistent 2-day free shipping and overall an okay experience in helping me procure "things", "stuff".
In fact as I'm writing this I get PTSD thinking about Amazon Fulfilment and the only remedy as pathetic as it is, is indulging in Amazon's Cyber Monday sales extravaganza palooza, contradicting my own gripes about Amazon but unable to overcome the general comfort of buying things on it. It's almost as if buying on Amazon on my Kindle Fire is now an entertainment of some sort :/ which shocks me to write it.
