I worked as stow, that job is brutal man, you gotta last 2-3 hrs at a time 3x a day for a 10hr shift. They don't like you listening to music so you gotta just sit there in silence. Luckily I got to unload trucks and I started drinking to get through it on my breaks.
Still it's tough to beat a place where you can walk in with no skills and start making $20/hr

- ge96 1y agoIt just made it more fun. There was a liquor store nearby so drive to it on the 30 minute break, pound a couple 100 proof 100ml bottles (99 Apples), back to it. That job was more fun than stow. If you're curious can read the subreddit /r/amazonfc They did recently start allowing you to buy their own approved headphones but before you'd get written up for being on your phone/having headphones in

- ethbr1 1y agoI appreciate the irony of your optimizing your own experience as ruthlessly as Amazon optimize their operations. Hate the game, not the player.
- olelele 1y agoI’m always amazed at how easily ppl admit to drinking and driving..
- numpad0 1y agoCould this be just a real preview of post scarcity? Intellectuals imagine it as a world where everyone researches warp drives and ancient texts all day, but this - everyone perpetually working safe and drunk sorting trash in eternal pain - sounds potentially more realistic than that.
