Do it!
Anyone involved in getting packages to my door in an unbelievably short time deserves to get paid a living wage without relying on overtime. And they should have enough breaks to catch their breath and use and actual restroom instead of using bottles.

Tell that to every other company while you’re at it.
Not every company is as bad as Amazon. I don’t think I’ve ever worked at a company that is actually run in a completely ethical manner, capitalism being what it is, but I’ve also never worked at a company as bad as Amazon or anywhere close to what Amazon do.
That makes one of us. I feel like every single company I’ve ever worked for only ever treats people like machines and they’ve all become exceedingly efficient at replacing them when they’ve broken down.

Maybe Amazon will develop a system where Ring/Alexa will let the drivers into your house to use your bathroom, in exchange for showing fewer ads on Prime Video.

If they let the driver into your place, they’ll expect the driver to take a video recording of what’s in there so that their algorithm can serve you better ads, and to avoid serving ads for things you already have.
Fewer ads? Amazon has never heard of her

Great for the workers. The tech workers need to unionize, too.

How is the campaign to shut down Amazon for good, and restore the USPS? I'm a bit more interested in that.

that requires changing the political opinions of people due to usps being a governmental service.

Yes, indeed. Certain opinions, of certain people, e.g. Louis DeJoy and his handlers. Or Jeff Bezos. You know, the sorts of people whose financial betterment would benefit from the demise of the USPS. And the people, mostly GOP/ Libertarian who have been misinformed about the nature of the USPS, especially those opinions.

Yes, it's so. They use the USPS, one of our great civil services paid for by our taxes, in order to make money off of us. Boycott Amazon is my path, and I suggest others boycott them as well.

Anything that sticks it to Amazon has my vote…they are out of control…buy anywhere else but amazon and cancel your ad filled amazon prime membership
Ooooh yes please, this would help not just the workers but also all the companies who can’t compete with the efficiency of slavery.

I’d sure like to hear people being allowed to pee in something that isn’t a bottle while being forced to deliver, or not being crushed by automation in warehouses for starters.

Suddenly when the managers jobs are threatened, unions don’t seem so bad…
