That's actually pretty nice though; even though people are missing out on packages at least Amazon won't leave them out in the cold for today.

  My inner cynic says Amazon paid Flex drivers because A) they still need drivers available during the christmas run-up and B) screwing drivers would put Amazon in an Ebenezer Scrooge-like PR disaster.

    Amazon in a PR disaster involving corporate greed and avarice? Oh no. Anyway. No really, I would not be surprised if Amazon has several playbooks upon playbooks involving commercials of how Amazon helped some warehouse worker get through college or some medical bill as their means of a public mea culpa.

    Paying them only to avoid the PR disaster is fine. Kinda what PR disasters are “for”
