No, Amazon is providing an absolutely critical service in this time.
- Red_Leaves_Flyy 7y agoWal-Mart, Sears, Costco, target, dollar general, Sam's Club, etc could do the same thing. FedEx, ups, and USPS aren't beholden to Amazon. Likewise, how hard would it be for grub hub and the like to detail their drivers to make last mile deliveries from local stores? I'm serious. Is it 1000 work hours or 10,000,000? Hell if I get laid off I'll need work and slinging boxes out of my suv is as easy as it gets while providing a valuable service in a crisis.
- traskjd 7y ago“FedEx, ups, and USPS aren't beholden to Amazon” You might have missed the memo there.
- ldng 7y agoNot really. Unless it is delivering food IMO. Maybe in the US but in EU, it is not.
- maw 7y agoIt doesn't take much to put together an argument that keeping people from going stir-crazy in their homes is critical.
- ldng 7y agoLet's be real here, Amazon, the online shop, is not "absolutely critical". If they closed today for 15 days, a lot of people will not even notice. Unless you are a shopping, in which case, well that would be a great time for a desintox and expand your world view :-)
