Hitting that “Buy” button on Amazon once felt great until you find out about the horrible working conditions in Amazon warehouses. #GuiltyShoppers

[GuiltyShoppers @GuiltyShoppers]

Amazon does a great job presenting itself as a consumer friendly brand focused on customer obsession.

What most of us as online shoppers don’t see firsthand are the workers who are pushed to their physical limits to meet increasing work rates & quotas.

"Too many of us don't bother to think about the 100s of thousands of people behind the curtain of Amazon's . fulfillment operation who are worried abut using the bathroom during a 10 hour shift." #Bamazon https://t.co/JwwiyVPjtp

After the announcement that Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos will be stepping down from his role at the company, @sappelbaum issued the following statement: "Bezos's model for treating workers must not become the model for the future of work.” #BAmazonUnion

Workers cited rates for picking items for delivery as high as 400 per hour or 2,500 per day. The rates have increased as Amazon’s peak holiday season has begun, even as coronavirus cases have constantly been reported among workers at the warehouse.

“even your investors are telling you to be more transparent”😐 #scamazon #taxamazon @jeffawilke @jaycarney @b_huseman @davidzapolsky @davehclark @jeffbezos #protectamazonworkers

why aren’t national/local laws requiring the same transparency from you all?

we need to change that

[fuelgrannie @fuelgrannie]

you employ over 100 fulltime, 6figure salaried lobbyists so to massage every loophole and tax law you can get your greedy abusive little hands on, you cheap murderous ghoul #scamazon

[fuelgrannie @fuelgrannie]

amazon chased struggling publishing businesses like a “cheetah pursued a sickly gazelle” https://t.co/qondQYMH5S

amazon’s whole business strategy is about being cheap, destructive and powerful: aka, not a “godsend”

#Amazon still thinks its warehouse workers are heroes, but it's gonna stop paying them an extra $2 per hour May 30. Some workers think the hazard pay should continue: https://t.co/FcbSeFFvGY

Fired @Amazon tech employee on @CBSThismorning speaks on the cruel dichotomy between tech vs warehouse workers. One COVID case in HQ, and the campus is emptied. Meanwhile, as COVID spikes in warehouses, Amazon adds more workers to fill the gap. Appalling. https://t.co/4WZzSzPSZS

[fuelgrannie @fuelgrannie]

bezos hires over 100 lobbyists who find ways to save him from paying money back into this country

100 lobbyists: full time, earning 6figures😐

think about that: the lobbyists eat way better than amazon employees🤷‍♀️

and lobbyists work from home: lobbyists have safer jobs too🤦‍♀️😒

[GuiltyShoppers @GuiltyShoppers]

@Shut_downAmazon You did a fantastic job.

[Athena Coalition @athenaforall]

Workers are assessed on a point-based attendance system, and can lose their jobs for missing work to take care of their health. Is this the work environment you want to promote in the middle of pandemic, @Amazon? via @SahanJournal @mukhtaribrahim https://t.co/aeQJ2nsgY3

[fuelgrannie @fuelgrannie]

“our desire for instant gratification is part of the problem https://t.co/WXebCh3To1”

but also #scamazon has a decades-long history of mistreating its employees, esp the lowest paid, most vulnerable ones

until *consumers* care and change their own behavior: nothing will change

[The New York Times @nytimes]

In a letter to Amazon, senators including Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders asked for more details about the firing of 4 employees who raised concerns about the spread of the coronavirus in the company's warehouses
