Why do you think Amazon has stopped shipping everything but essentials?
It's not because they don't think people don't want all these things stuck at home..
Its because the entire warehouse process has been turned inside out and expanded with constant safety measures, wipe downs, disinfectants, etc. This slows down everything.
Amazon is doing a ton, and not out of altruism, but because it's the pragmatic thing to do.
The workers need to be safe so they don't quit and so they don't get sick.
We are just not bragging about it (internally or externally). And neither am I, I just feel the need to defend it from the narrative that the company is sitting on its billions while letting the mass of warehouse staff get sick and die, or whatever you are implying.
- whoisjuan 7y ago> stopped shipping everything but essentials Not true. They are still shipping non-essentials just with longer delivery times. Now, objectively speaking, Amazon could have done far better in prevention when this started. Why is it that just recently they introduced temperature checks? That’s should have been a -day one- (pun intended) measure. They were doing that in China months ago.
