I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.

I feel your pain mate, as a fellow retiree, I’d suggest you look into passive index fund investing and learn some more. For me, I had my share of ups and downs when I first started looking for a consistent passive income so I hired an expert advisor for aid, and following her advice, I poured $30k in value stocks and digital assets, Up to 200k so far and pretty sure I'm ready for whatever comes.

Investing in the stock market has HISTORICALLY provided higher returns than other forms of investment. According to Morningstar, the average annual return for the S&P 500 index, which measures the performance of 500 large-cap stocks, was approximately 10% from 1926 to 2020.

Stocks are pretty unstable at the moment, but if you do the right math, you should be just fine.

in my town amazon was looking to build a distribution warehouse on a piece of unoccupied land. the homes near the site aggressively protested against it for a number of reason, mostly increased traffic on that street. this is a street i take to work quite often and would see their big lawn signs encouraging people to vote NO to the building construction. this went on for probably 6 months. every week some of these signs were blocked from view..... by standing amazon delivery vans delivering packages to the very same people protesting against the buildings construction, which, ironically caused traffic back ups on that street.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="74">1:14</a>:36 Correcting the word "listen" with the word "detect", was incorrect on the Amazon employee's side and was done at least twice in this documentary. To "detect" insinuates that the device would be obtaining information from "other methods/other senses" not just listening. But to my knowledge the device isn't looking at you, it's not touching you, it's not scanning your body with a heatmap & trying to read your lips. It is in fact LISTENING, which was the correct choice of word description.

The more I listened to this documentary the more I was able to see and hear the real Amazon. Certain responses given by the CEO let me know that they couldn't care less about their employees. Just because someone shows up to a job everyday doesn't mean they like it. Some people work because they are trying to take care of their family. There are all sorts of reasons why people stay and people leave. This CEO is so out of touched with the employees but he doesn't care. These men are driven by results. If you can't do it, they will find someone who can because they think that they are powerful enough to dictate outcomes. Simply put, their evil. In their minds they are good guys, but they are totally detached from reality. They only see numbers.

As an Amazon seller, I can honestly say that that they don’t care about us. They invite you to sell on their platform and when you find items to resell or even have them manufactured, they gather this data and then go,directly to the manufacturer and undercut you and you are stuck with inventory you can no longer sell at a profit. With time you have to learn to time it and get in and get out before Amazon takes you out.

My son went from working hard on a hay farm to being a package driver for Amazon for one dollar more an hour. He loved it at first but that love quickly wore off. As he kept making his delivery time goals each week, they kept pushing him more and more without any bonuses. It was never good enough. He was working 12 hour shifts. He was exhausted, going up flights up stairs carrying packages daily. The better he was, they more they worked him until he completely gave out. Once he tripped on a step snd he was terrified to tell management so he wouldn't get yelled at n get a mark against him or get fired. I cleaned his elbow and super glued his elbow skin together and put butterfly stitches on it and sent him back to work. A year later, after 2 years of no raises, tighter goals to meet, no recognition for safety, and reaching his goals, he gave up n quit.

What people don’t realize is that you cannot continually improve and grow as a company without having employee turnover. At Amazon, they have obviously realized that they MUST have high turnover to keep improving and growing. Why? Human beings want comfort and stability. When humans are comfortable, they like staying comfortable. A comfortable organization, just like a comfortable person, will stop improving. You cannot improve your abilities and talents without discomfort. So, Amazon realized that every human has a limit, and that people will leave when they reach that limit. It’s a simple factor that Amazon has accepted and built into its business model. It sucks for the burned out employee, but there are 100 people waiting to take every employee’s position. Especially the positions that require little talent or skill (like driving, sorting packages, pushing buttons and pulling levers). Keeping people in those positions for 5-10 years isn’t realistic so rather than struggling to make employees stay, Amazon sees it as a natural process and they’ve set up their business to account for natural human behavior. As soon as the high turnover positions and work can be done by AI and robots, there will be no more of those jobs. Right now it’s just cheaper to cycle people through those positions, accepting that people will leave after an average of __ months on the job. If people want a comfy place to work, they shouldn’t choose to work for any of the most successful organizations in the world.

Amazon keeps using the phrase "obsessed with our customers" --- seems appropriate, because they actually do seem a bit obsessed -- like stalkers wanting to know everything about us and capture all of our data. The documentary makes good points about the "listening devise" alexa. I didn't know it was inspred by Bazos' love of Star Trek TOS. But the world he is creating is more comparable to Caprica (Battlestar prequil) than Star Trek. Finally, I saw an interview with Bezos on the Lex Fridman podcast, and he comes across as an innocent philanthropist with nothing but good in his heart. Now I'm thinking, ha ha ha (evil cackle).

I never once left there feeling physically exhausted and pretty sure I never broke a sweat. This was in early winter, but it was also in South Carolina. I think people confuse mental exhaustion with physical exhaustion, but working there was definitely mentally exhausting for me personally. The structured workflow process necessary for a company with that amount of product volume is one that “feels” very overbearing in nature, especially for this extremely soft and fragile society we’ve created in this country.

Eh no. Both of those statements suggested, can be true at the same time, namely that wealth can make a person evil and it can expose that evil in oneself. I would suggest that it is very difficult to resist the recruitment to evil that wealth invites one into the belly of. Name me one example, other than Chuck Feeney who GAVE up their wealth completely to do good.

@@cdeignan47 I disagree. The actions you take and choices you make are yours and yours alone. Others may influence you, but evil is inside all of us. Like others and the op have said, it simply draws out the true self. Poverty tends to cause people to exhibit humility and wealth the opposite. The duality exists in all of us and cannot be extinguished. God bless brother! 🙏🙌

@@BigManJay69 Bro, have you even read about what progressives have spoken about Amazon? Both the neo-liberal and conservative side of things do not mind Amazon or as a matter of fact any of these big tech. Case in point when congress called these folks for testimony, all conservatives cared about asking is how conservative voices are being silenced. Even the new-liberal wing of democratic party was asking Amazon about how they were killing competition. Dont take my word for it. Just listen fully to the very recent anti-trust hearing in Congress. Now also listen to Bernie Sanders (or your so called boogeyman told about Amazon). Lockdowns are not just put forth by compliance left. It is exactly how its being tackled every where in the world. Except for Brazil, but do you really want that comparison.

I've worked for about 28 years and for 30 different companies in different industries. So far it's been 6 1/2 years that I've worked for Amazon as a regular warehouse Associate and gotta say I like it more than the other jobs. It's hard work and definitely not perfect, but overall it's a solid company to work for. Grateful.
