In September, Billy Foister, a 48-year-old Amazon warehouse worker, died after a heart attack at work. According to his brother, an Amazon human resources representative informed him at the hospital that Billy had lain on the floor for 20 minutes before receiving treatment from Amazons internal safety responders. --- kin to all that throbs ...

I don't understand why anyone would willingly choose to work in an Amazon warehouse. Because a job is better than no job. This is the mentality that facilitates so many thousands of jobs for illegal immigrants. Some people dont have that luxury of being selective. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yea, factor life has been like this for a long time. Its hard work.
Stories like these remind me of the Jungle (book). Its a hard knock life. It is what it is. I have no doubt democrats would work to improve these conditions but unfortunately, republicans are in charge and they would prefer billionaires get richer rather than the common man have some non-savage working conditions. ...

A couple of days before, he put the wrong product in the wrong bin and within two minutes management saw it on camera and came down to talk to him about it Antifar posted... Billy had lain on the floor for 20 minutes before receiving treatment i know this was put in for dramatic effect but a company that notices when you misplace an item and responds immediately would probably also have an issue with a person who's stopped working for 20 minutes something tells me we're not getting the full story here ...

How is it Amazon's fault if no one saw him for 20 minutes? It doesn't say he was being ignored. As soon as someone saw him, they called for help.

I don't understand why anyone would willingly choose to work in an Amazon warehouse. They pay well, hire anyone without an interview, and bring lots of jobs to otherwise struggling towns.

Those two incidents were on completely separate days. He was noticed because he misplaced an item, because thats what the system is designed to do. Its not designed to track their every movement.
