The Thin Yellow Line
I’ll just leave this here…
I’m looking to ask current(or former) amazon employees around 20 questions in an annonymous interview about things like what its like working there, pay scale, things they see, ect. If you or anyone else want to be part of this series of interviews and get yout usually hushed voices heard, please dm me! Litteraly anyone at all, with anything to say!
Bad Decisions
I got fired for the first time ever on Friday, and I can't stop beating myself up about it. The company was awful, management was filled with brownnosers, and the last straw was when they tried stealing over a hundred dollars of my tips to cover a teller's mistake. But getting fired was unbelievable. As someone with the mental and social challenges of being on the spectrum, I'm used to employers taking advantage of me. This is a new level though, when they had me sign a damn harassement and misconduct file for my termination. All I can think about was how shocking and terrifying it was to be locked in a room with two men of authority speaking in monotone voices that literally couldn't understand at times, and being forced to sign something like that. I feel so ashamed that I couldn't stand up for myself enough to quit…
If you disagree, why?
Work Injury & Ready To Leave
I’ve worked for my company going on 11 years . 5 months ago I injured my back on the job and have been on workman’s comp . During that 5 months I went to school and got my CDL license. I’ve applied for my first trucking job and if everything goes right I should be starting next week. I want to know can I still collect workman’s comp while I’m working at the other job just long enough to see if I can do the job without re injuring my back? And how do I go about asking HR for some kind of separation package?
