To the point where they don't fire this one girl my friend works with who cussed out another co-worker because she was annoyed with him trolling the work chat

My co-workers are lucky that this isn't my friend's girlfriend who was the boss or else she would have fired her for cussing out another co-worker and threatening to beat his ass.

Does the Amazon warehouse hire trash people like her all the time or something? How can they not find classy and proper people to work for them?

You don't need to be classy to work in a warehouse. You need to be able to move boxes and pee in bottles.

I would think it's better for the company as a whole to hire only people who are classy, well mannered, quiet, and (preferably) educated

because they run out of eligible candidates eventually in any region. once you get terminated a couple times, they literally will never hire you again. there are only so many people in an area who are willing to work there in the first place lol.

I don't know. Maybe at Amazon you're allowed to cuss, some work environments are different than others. I know offices have zero tolerance for cussing, but Amazon let's you smoke weed now too they're very progressive.

To tell you honestly, I'm kinda surprised they aren't concerned about how well behaved their employees are. We absolutely care here in TSA and would have zero tolerance for bad behavior.

Do they really want their reputation of their workers to be thought of as ghetto, trashy, and classless by a lot of people?

All the people I know with warehouse jobs are ex-cons. People fresh out of jail end up there or at call centers.

They are desperate to penny pinch. They know full well if they paid a livable wage and improved work conditions they would have lines for miles applying for a job. They want to pay the below the bare minimum and extract the absolute most value out of someone before they burn out and are thrown in the gutter

Thats me and I wouldnt take a warehouse job unless it paid well over 6 figures and had 1/3rd the amount of work I imagine current warehouse employees do currently. Thats what it would take to get me to give up my office job with an air conditioner, cushy seat, free coffee and applied knowledge/skills.

I do know someone who went from a Sam's Club Distribution Warehouse to Amazon and it was very tough for them.

Lmfao. If you can find a warehouse position that pays over 100k, let me know so I can transfer.

I know they dont exist. Thats why people with higher education generally wont go for a warehouse job unless they are desperate. That and the shit work conditions

Why would you get fired for cursing at a co-worker? A boss or customer? Sure. But two employees getting into a heated argument is pretty much the norm.

Yeah, they also hire trash people who troll people in the work chat who just want to get work done.
