It’s shameful that one of the wealthiest companies in the history of the world can’t pay for security and repairs. This exposes how they value their employees.
The employees don't value their own time by keep working there though. And where's all the good hearted people creating better jobs?
It’s not the place of buisness that should be held responsible, that should be put to police. Our streets should be safe and free from these people. Blame the bad government for not giving us enough funds for police.
@@DiscoMiata Exactly. You should take the locks off your doors.
It's not that they can't; they simply don't.
How do you think they get rich?
Went to meet a Tinder girl at an Amazon warehouse(she worked there) and wow it’s surprising how easily you can walk onto a multibillion dollar companies facility. Junk yards are harder to pull up into😂
and perhaps why so many items are never delivered?
They're too cheap to have security and cameras though ❔
Might also depend on the location. Other warehouses probably never had a problem with criminal activities outside at the lots.
Did you smash?
@Panamera Ghost yeah the one in my city takes its security seriously and has someone watching the camera all the time
They told her not to leave valuables in the car she proceeds to leave her gun, purse and other items smh 🤦🏽♀️. Amazon need to do something about this it's ridiculous. People work too hard to have their stuff stolen by low life thieves.
You should be allowed to keep a gun in your car, it's your car.
@Z Jones I agree you should however if I know that car break in's are the norm you can believe I wouldn't be leaving mines in there.
Obviously you can leave your belongings wherever you like, just be aware of the risk involved so you’re not surprised that you’re no exception to crime.
It's hard enough to find someone who is willing to work in the first place..
@@zjones9876 so you buy a gun and leave it in the car? It’s not like she went to a government facility where she had to leave it in the car. She is just another dumb gun owner buying a gun & not utilizing what it’s meant for.
“In training they said not to leave valuables in your car.”
*15 seconds later…”My window was gone, my gun was gone, my purse was gone, all my valuables are gone.” Here’s your sign!!
When she said my gun I was shocked..so casual.
@ariamason where else would you keep your gun ?
It was my first day at Amazon. & during training they said cars here were tended to get broken into. They said this while my car was outside. Thinking the cars on Amazon property would be protected. I couldn’t bring my bag inside due to Amazon policy. So I hid it. Regardless if I had nothing in the car, they still would have smashed my window to get inside. There is no protection for the employees
@@queentori2096 then leave your doors unlock or dont work in the hood lol
@@queentori2096 these are less likely to smash a window if they don't see anything to grab.
There are lots of cars to look through... It only makes more sense to open the ones that are clear valuables inside.
What's absolutely ridiculous, is that I hear nothing about any security guards or security cameras, and yet they know this is happening all the time 👁️👁️ ❔
Can’t afford them.
The security guards and cameras are INSIDE pointed at the employees.
@@murphine969 don't believe it
If you have guards and they see a crime and try to stop it. They or the criminal might get injured or killed. The lawsuit will be massive. Only way they would have to do something is if someone is killed and they are sued . Like the Walmart they arnt going to put a finger on thieves.
People talk!!!
Why on earth did she leave her purse and a gun in her car though? It’s bad they were stolen, but I would never leave a purse in open sight.
You can't bring a GUN into a Amazon warehouse....duh....and she left her purse because they probably are concerned with workers stealing.
Some business don't have employee locker room, like my old job.
Everytime you go to work, you have to leave your personal effects at home or in the car.
They just don't provide lockable storage locker room with individual cabinets for the employees to use.
Wear clothing with zippered pockets, don't attract attention by carrying bags and purses.
Don't dress nice and don't wear any jewelry.
Don't drive fancy and expensive cars.
@@motleyassortment5512 why not lock it in the trunk where it’s out of sight? Don’t get me wrong - it is tragic that criminals are taking over multiple areas of the country and doing things like this. There’s no justification for it. But I’ve traveled many places where I didn’t want to carry a purse or belongings in and I locked them in my trunk before I even leave home. It sounds like she was fully aware that she was at risk this way.
@@grafxgrl8030
Criminals know by now, that is the most obvious place people will hide their personal possessions.
If they want it bad enough, they will find it.
People have no respect for other's personal property as long as it is free and they don't have to pay for it.
Steal: wife, husband, girlfriend, boyfriend, children, pets, cars, any assets you have , money, food, anything and everything that catches their eye and appeals to them.
You have package thieves and mail thieves.
You just have to watch everybody and don't ignore who's hanging your surroundings.
@Grafxgrl didn't she say it was like her 1st or 2nd day on the job?
Warning or not, there should be available resources and personnel to secure the facility and its employees vehicles/belongings.. I work at the other South Fulton facility, where there is mostly if not always a marked or unmarked Police Car stationed, alongside a Allied Security unmarked vehicle that patrols the lot throughout the day and night. The facility has maintained a protective fence surrounding the property. It took just over two to three months for Amazon to provide this level of security to this specific facility after assumingly finding out what occurred at the other facilities surrounding. I see a lot of these comments about it being the employee's fault, when she was giving a clear warning, which was also given to us when we first started as well. At the end of the day, we shouldn't have to worry about our belongings being taken or our vehicles being damaged if we have a multi-million dollar company that provides a "safe work enviornment". Amazon, y'all gots to do better if you don't want to keep losing employees due to careless actions of on-site "security".
Security costs money & Bezos's car hasn't been broken into.
If/when a pattern of criminal activity on private property is established/documented by local authorities; the property owner(s) are responsible for damages and or personal injuries obtained on said property.
@TheGothicdolphin no. No they're not. They have warned those coming onto the premises. That's enough.
@Rock On your wrong; it's called Assault on Business or Landlord Property. The employees need to contact attorneys. One of the best for this type of representation is- MORGAN and MORGAN law offices.
maybe its on purpose?
Criminals have no fear anymore. There are no repercussions as we've gotten so soft on crime. Votes matter.
When did criminals have fear and when did they stop caring?
@@can_you_guess_my_new_username 40 years ago.
@David Hyman omg. Criminals had fear before 1983? I tried to do some quick research and gather some data from 1983 to see what happened. I can't find any interviews of criminals saying they used to have fear but now they don't because there are no repercussions for crimes anymore. How did you come this conclusion and what happened in 1983, my friend? Thanks in advance because I like learning.
I looked up graphs and they show that the incarceration rate in America has increased since 1983. That doesn't seem like "going soft on crime".
@@can_you_guess_my_new_username You just need to do more research and I've not the time to educate you. You can either be aware of what's going on, or not. Your acknowledgment of it has no bearing on its existence.
How low do you have to be to steal from someone while they’re at work
Steal from someone while they're at church or the hospital. Seen those stories.
But welfare and free housing and ebt is cool? Thats all payed by stealing from my paycheck.
Our "elected" officials do it their whole career.
Hey man they're probably looking for job applications...
That's when most thefts happen
It’s all Amazons not just this one. Happens at my facility in Ohio all the time.
Thieves talk to each other and words get around of where are the easy picks. Walmart had to close many stores in the high crime area due to shoplifting.
@@mandatorym_y_o_c_a_r_d_i_t_i_s lol, where did you hear that? I ask because it's not true.
@@mandatorym_y_o_c_a_r_d_i_t_i_s oh, ok, so they're closing almost 240 stores across the United States that aren't performing as well as they would prefer. 4 of them are in Chicago. Must be because of shoplifting. Tha's what one specific news/propaganda source seems to believe anyway. Do you use critical thinking at all in your day to day life?
The thieves part or the Walmart part? The Walmarts closing in many parts of the US is definitely true. The thieves part? Not sure.
Though many organized rings do communicate to each other so I wouldn't put it past them either.
@@GymnasticsCoach83 they're closing stores that aren't hitting whatever corporate metrics they have in place. It's 140 nationwide. There are organized thieving rings, they've existed for as long as there have been things to steal. Some news organizations has been using the closures to signal that crime is so out of control that wal mart can't even stay I'm business. But wal mart never said shoplifting had anything to do with the closures. Those store just aren't performing the way wal mart wants them to.
It’s places like this that can afford fencing and security but don’t do it.
The real PATHETIC thing about this is that same distribution center (and every Amzn d.c.) have *HUNDREDS* of cameras INSIDE making sure employees are not stealing from Amzn and are not spending "time off task". Shows you where their priorities are. 🤦🏼😠🤷🏼
I worked as a driver at a company that parked in a lot and we took them to the business and back to their cars. Just to let you know it was one of the drivers he had a passenger who would do it and the driver was the look out.
I was thinking if they're not checking who is coming in the premises they may be in on it.
Yeah, a tow truck came into my husbands at night, when he came out without a car on the truck. When my husband got off work his car was stolen. We got back 3 weeks later with a parking ticket we had to pay and damage.
So sad this is happening to people that actually wants to work, what is shame Amazon needs to step up spend some of that money on your employee safety and well-being
They’re smart if my workplace gets dangerous I would quit and find a another job too
Yeah they dont get paid enough to keep fixing broken car windows
I quit the same day because I came to work at Amazon part time. Then my car got broken into, and I ended up having to pay to get it fixed. I did not feel safe at that property
@@queentori2096 that happened to me up there I had to pay for all the damages
I used to work at this location in 2021, I never experienced this. It was so packed in the lot that you couldn't find a parking spot most times and would have to use the shuttle from the East Point location. They have a security guard at the door when you exit the building that just sits there. Why not have them patrol the parking lot. Amazon also needs to invest in cameras as this seems to be a problem.
That security guard is only there to protect Amazon from employee theft.
Location matters. This is why I don't work or LIVE in run down hood areas.
@@OmarHudson our warehouse isn't even in the hood the nearest neighborhoods are suburban's
@@suuriz I am literally looking at footage of the parking lot. "Hood" is subjective. And from what little I see. I would not work there. If there is broken glass all over the pavement and you see a whole bunch of older model vehicles...um yeah, I Ain't working there. (Unless this is a dirty factory job that involves manufacturing of some kind or an auto body shop of course)
That’s cause having a roving guard would cost way more
Atlanta. Enough said.
This is what happens when you vote Democrat. More crime because less consequence if they get caught!
I feel bad for the victims. My car is my pride and joy. I'd feel so bad if the company I worked for didn't do anything to help.
If the thief does not see anything of value or if the driver has removed all things inside car view, the thief won't break into that car. It's that simple.
@@cecilcook3557 not necessarily. In certain areas they break in to cars that are too bare or put together because they think you are hiding something if its too clean. It's almost better to leave your car unkept, junkie, dirty and have it looking like you keep trash in there.
1:20 why did she leave valuables in her car when she was told during orientation TO NOT LEAVE VALUABLES IN THE CAR!!!!!!
i think a better question is why did she show up to a job that is actively telling employees not to leave anything in their cars
Stolen comment. And this the second time I caught you parroting. You try working there. You'll be lucky if your ENTIRE car isn't stolen, jackass!
My thing from a former security guard not with Amazon just to make that but a company is required by law to give you a place to put your valuables in your property and it has to be safe and secure just by law they got to give you a bathroom with running water or access to running if not it is deemed you can leave and they treat even fire you because they would be wrongful termination just like a prism cannot house a prisoner without a bed or working bathroom
So with that being said I think Amazon a multibillion-dollar company should be at least able to pay out for some decent security and not just let s*** go on because it's not just the security that's just laying it go on sorry to break it to you Amazon hires a security company to come out there and work the warehouse and property so their fourth it's up to them to pay attention and see that their security ain't doing their job and firearm and get a new company that will actually do their job
@@mybedroomtv I think the best question is, is Amazon heads behind this or another high up entity who doesn't like Amazon? Or is it all just an act?
If/when a pattern of criminal activity on private property is established/documented by local authorities; the property owner(s) are legally responsible for the well-being of persons [invited/required] to be on said properties including financial loses resulting from damages and or personal injuries incurred on said property.
I’m more concerned that there’s another unaccounted for weapon in the hands of street things who smash and grab as a fun night it with friends activity.
I understand where you’re coming from. Yes I do. Unfortunately I live in a area where as a woman I have to have some kind of protection to get around. Many people from my area are not as blessed where they don’t have to constantly look over their shoulder. Union city has a high crime rate. Sadly people steal from people. The police have the serial number and all the information of the gun that was stolen. I am not the first person who gun was stolen and won’t be the last.
@@queentori2096 If your Weapon was secured Properly, You wouldn't be adding to the weapons issue in America. IF you "have to have some kind of protection to get around" You would Still have your weapon...But, because you did not need it, and did not secure your weapon properly, you Lost yours because you Left it where you could not Use it to protect your property. Ironic I know. No one to blame but yourself.
@@redneckhippiefreak Let me guess you are going to say she should have had it in the trunk. First, how do you know she did not have it there. Next if they had time to break into 20 cars they were there for some time
@@redneckhippiefreak I assure you that I can remove a police officers AR-15 from their turn in under 30 seconds, faster if it has a remote release
@@redneckhippiefreak People kept on saying that she left it out in plaint site. Sorry I thought you were one of those people. I should have asked what do you mean by secured. So many people were saying it's secured in the trunk.
In 1987 I worked at a nice grocery store in which they told employees to park on the side, not in front where customers park. Break ins of employee cars were regular and I was driving a nice 1979 Mustang Indy Pace Car. After I started working in the evenings I started parking at the far end of the customer parking lot. Managers would tell me to move my Mustang and I did a few times. I finally said no, go ahead and fire me which they didn’t. They ignored employee complaints about break ins. I quit a few months later.
i used to go to college in an area that had a LOT of car break ins and thefts. I bought a cheap car that nobody would want (i wasn't worried about it breaking down because I chose this college because I could take the train there as well) If I had evening classes I would disabled the vehicle under the hood (so it couldn't be hot wired / stolen, and i left the doors unlocked. I made sure there was nothing inside (I locked the trunk latch though). And I left a sign on it, car is disabled/nothing inside/doors unlocked (i never had a problem with windows being broken or attempts to steal it). But this was years ago when you didn't have to worry about catalytic converter thefts (I am sure that would be an issue now, even if you buy the converter security cover, they just saw right through it).
Lol i enjoyed this story. That's how to deal with them 😂
What a shame
Back at Stanford, my dormie who was an electrical eng major, bought this crappy Datsun and intentionally left one of the headlights hanging by wire and the back tail lights removed. So it looked bare bones. But when he drove it out of campus, he simply re-attached everything in seconds. He said he was the only one in that area whose car wasn't broken into.
Same thing happened at Amazon in Forrest Park Ga too they even broke in a managers car too
You left your purse and gun in the car? Seriously?
They don’t have personal lockers at this Amazon. Then you’ll say she should have left the gun at home? She lives in Atlanta! You need to carry a gun for your safety.
@@A_World_Full_of_Lies union citu is NOT Atlanta and you cannot bring a gun into the facility.
@@A_World_Full_of_Lies gun is useless if you don’t have Access.
I'm sure she wasn't allowed to carry a gun into work so what other option is there?
@@A_World_Full_of_Lies she could've at least hid the gun in a better place in her car than the glove compartment know what she knows about the break-ins
If the thieves ever faced REAL justice, it wouldn't happen twice.
The employees are breaking into each others cars..
In San Francisco there is so much broken glass from car burglary the ground looks like snow ice hail. They leave the windows open down and attach a note that says; 'all valuables are removed'. Glovebox open
I would assume the people breaking in would be the people that quit over low pay?
This is what makes me so angry. Amazon makes billions upon billions of dollars every quarter but they can’t provide security for their employees? Horrible! 🤬🤬🤬
They would be called racists for busting the obvious suspects.
Yes they do it’s just that location 😂. I delivered to many Amazon warehouse’s in the United States that has security
They told that dummy not to leave valuables in her car... Now there's another stolen gun on the streets of atlanta 🤦♂️
Agreed.
she most likely got paid for that gun. it's an trick criminals use to get guns from legal buyers that they conspire with to make it seem stolen.
So you believe she could lock her gun up inside the facility?
So what was she supposed to do with her gun, genius? Bring it to work? I agree about the purse but Amazon could afford a security guard or a gate that requires an ID.
I came here to say just that.
The security services at Amazon facilities are absolute joke. We have experienced literal ambulatory needs for employees in my state, but if it occurs outside the doors the security people ignore it entirely like they don't see it. Too busy watching their phones. Their job is to secure the interior of the facility and that is it. Once you walk out the door and if you're heading to your car on their grounds they are not responsible. You could get shot and killed and it's not their issue. That happened in Lakeville, Minnesota recently where woman was killed by her boyfriend after an altercation in the parking lot. Security didn't even bother to go outside to figure out what was going on. Complete joke.
When I worked for amazon they definitely had security. Only problem was that they were sleeping half the time and they were borderline obese. This lady is an irresponsible gun owner who probably shouldn’t own one imo.
I remember that story! Oh wow smh
Amazon doesn't supply their worker's with lockers for their shifts? Who leaves their purse with all their ID in a car? At least take the wallet out.
Lockers would break amazon.
And the gun,
I find it difficult to believe that ANY woman ANYWHERE in the world would leave her purse in her car. But yeh, please leave the gun (with a trigger lock on it in the USA).
Put it in the tru😢before you leave home
People who are homeless but still work
This is exactly what's going on with the DHL Company located @ 6000 Studio Way Union City GA. Lack of Micromanaging as far as security patrol around the facility during the night instead of day, & also lack of security with camera roll across the parking lot. How do you expect to have employees with no security needs?
Everyone of them should collectively file a law suit against Amazon, because they are responsible for the safety of their employees. This is a billion dollar industry and they need better security measures.
We're talking about cars here, not someone's well being. Hell, we should all collectively file a lawsuit against the government for not not looking out for the safety of its citizens. This same nonsense logic is often cited by Amazon employees about having metal detectors on the way out, but not on the way in and that someone could bring a weapon inside. What about the millions of other businesses. Do we not care about their employees safety, or should everyone be checked before we enter any business.
They have no obligation for the "safety" of their employees cars, Williams. Don't pretend that you have a clue.
Dude really blaming companies for rampant crimes in Atlanta.
Yes a law suit should be filed
What baffles me is that every Amazon facility I’ve been to they have security and they have cameras all over the place. Maybe there’s one particular one is different
Nope the break into the ones in Memphis too with guards gates lights....
It’s the 2nd parking lot they are talking about. The main parking lot is secured and gated. They didnt have enough parking so they built a second parking lot which has 0 protection. I live 3 minutes from the facility. It’s damn near brand new. They knew better than to not secure it. folks have been having problems there for months now. They just dont want to pay to address the issue.
They mostly care about just watching their workers just work.
All a camera does (if they even look at it) is shows a guy in a hoodie breaking a window..
They hit all 3 Amazons in the same area on that same night. They got 20 cars at HGA6
Such a lovely community!🤣
Good for them
In a famous Nevada court case, a famous casino lost a lot of money because they knew their parking garage was unsafe. Instead of fixing the problem, they removed their security cameras to prevent them from being vandalized resulting in a horrible crime not being filmed. Hopefully Amazon will pay as that casino did. The warning to the employees was proof that they knew. The unfilmed crimes proof that they did nothing. My dog could win that case and hes not even an attorney (but he is a smart border collie). Let's stop blaming the victims and go after the problem. Even in my very rural, crime free neighborhood, this would have been caught by cameras. Cameras I bought from AMAZON.
That would be nice, but in this corrupt world big companies don't have to be just. They do what they want and lawer up.
The one question I would ask if I were this news crew would be: Where does the management park?
I'm willing to bet that the management parking lot is secure and monitored.
Sad to see so much victim-shaming in these comments. It was obviously safer & more appropriate for her to leave her belongings in her locked vehicle. A thief is labeled a thief because he or she steals, not because of what someone else appropriately does with their own things.
Thank you! It was my very first day at this location. During orientation that’s when I found out that they had a break in issue. When I clocked out that’s when I found out my car was broken into including 19 other vehicles. It’s a lot of victim blaming but it’s fine. That’s the world we live in. The victim catches hell while the suspect/their etc gets the opposite.
Oh FFS 🤦🏻♀️ a warehouse Job is NOT a SideHustle....
Yeah, I think all employers should supply a place where you can put your valuables-you purse, etc-and have enough spaces so each individual employee can have a space and can lock it.
They need security for the parking lot. An ID on the car would be SO easy to apply to all cars. Don't have a numbered ID - you don't get in. Easy peezy. BUT not gonna happen. It COST too much ...right?
Wish Amazon would put half of the effort tracking the criminal rather than their customers or employees
Well if they told you when you first started not to leave valuables in the car, why would you leave your gun, GENIUS?
Because she’s not allowed to carry it on her while at work. Very common. And she may or may not have had it locked away in a metal lockable gun container. But if they are breaking in they can break into that as well.
Sounds like proof that a gun is needed in that area but that they don’t let them into the building genius.
@@myvenusheeler keep your gun on you what good is it in your car, are all people sheep nowadays and do everything they are told the crooks don't
@@tomgiorgini9154 Okay genius.
Warm home sweet home feeling living there.
Walmart has a security truck patrolling the parking lot, especially for the Christmas season. Then again, Walmart has "quit" some cities because of theft.
Walmart has quit because they are not as profitable as they once were and it isn't due to theft ...that is a cover story. People have been stealing from Walmart for decades.
Same thing was happening at the one off camp Creek and Washington Rd.
I bet i can tell you a few things about who broke into the cars. But that would be racist, right?
What did we do to you besides rob your houses and impregnate your woman ? 🤔
They looked like you and yes I am a racist!
Don't leave gun in your car. It's useless if you don't have it on your body.
WTF 🤬
You leave your gun unsecured in your car on a side gig job. WOW
Wonder what race is doing all this jacking?

Don't forget, Bezos ASKED the public to help HIS employees during covid, poor TRILLIONAIRE just trying to make ends meet.
The Bezos Yacht says it CAN. 🤣🤣🤣
WTF Amazon? Too cheap to provide proper security to protect your employees properties ?
Amazon is liable due to the fact that people are being allowed into a facility which ships so much merchandise and is a no brained to protect their place entirely including employees’ vehicles
Amazon cares about Amazon.. not the employees 😊.
No employer is required to protect your personal belongings. Most employee parking lots are not secured.
@@jessicak958 Bezos cares about Bezos.
She's better off working for FedEx
@Liberal Culler Plenty of unsafe dangerous places in America and employers aren't required to "keep them safe". New York, San Francisco, Chicago, Portland - there'd be no employers if your logic was true. They did their due diligence by informing employees of the dangers. Amazon has no liability.
@@namehere4954 ? This.. Do you think 💭 the big head ceo’s at Amazon would accept this type of treatment to there cars? No they would not! There only doing it because they look at them than less than non important peasants workers who are replaceable and should be grateful 🥹 for the opportunity 😌🫡 which is sad 😢
They need to gate that facility and have security!
Should be two armed security guards in golf carts riding around the parking areas during the shifts. And should be lockers for all employees to use to keep their valuables during the work shift. The job I just retired from we had lockers just down the hall (behind two sets of locked doors) from control room office area inside the plant. I was mister get it done -had to go purchase or pick up parts and supplies for the facility almost daily- there was 19 buildings- had keys and access cards for those buildings. I had a work or job wallet that I kept in the locker when not on shift and when I would arrive each morning I put my personal wallet- keys etc. in the locker picked up the job wallet and keys etc. and it was here we go around to check buildings, work orders etc.- work for the day. Peace.
*A simple guard shack at the entrance with armed inbound and outbound security officers would prevent all this.*
I work at a lumberyard and we employees we’re constantly getting flat tires, sometimes multiple flats due to the company unloading units of wood with huge staples that fall on the ground. I had three new tires going flat when I finally spoke up with the management.
I told them I’d be sending them the bill. They promptly fixed the problem.
Well you wanted to defund the police so there you have it
Who said “I “ wanted to defund the police?
@@queentori2096 it was a generalized "you"
Years ago, my brother parked his car in a parking ramp where he lived. He told me , leave the car open don't lock it. I ask why? He said they will bust out your window to get inside the car. This way they can just open the doors and look around. He never left anything of value in it.
I saw a news video about people in San Francisco doing something similar...leaving their car trunks open so that theives could see there was nothing valuable inside.
She was advised not to leave valuables in her car so she leaves her purse and a gun? If I am not mistaken Amazon provides workers with a locker and a lock to secure valuables. Advice and provided safety measures were both ignored The break-in is not a reflection of Amazon but bad personal decisions.
People must remember we live in some evil times.
You cant take a gun into work
Can’t bring a gun into premises
So what shes saying, is these theives now have a loaded weapon on the street, because SHE didn't have it properly secured?? She started off by saying "They wared us in orientation".. So "I didn't listen and left my gun unsecured for the criminals to get".. Probably should have chose a different victim.. If you worked at the Mall, they wouldn't be watching your car for you!!! Its on YOU to be RESPONSIBLE!!!
To all those questioning her leaving her purse in her car if you have ever worked in a warehouse (which I'm certain none of you have) you don't take a purse into a warehouse that has no safe place for you to put your belongings. You should lock all of your items in your trunk and that should be adequate security. She was informed that she should not leave her positions out where they can be seen. She may have tucked everything under the seat, but that's not good enough. Until these companies wake up and start paying adequate wages and hiring people that don't have college degrees for decent-paying livable wage jobs this is the new world we have to live in... welcome to the hunger games. Our pain is entertainment for the rich. The worst of us will make it to the next round.
I work at GYR3
You don't need a college degree to get a good job.
To all those questioning her leaving her purse in her car, you NEVER leave something valuable in plain sight. And I guarantee that she didn't shove her purse under a seat.
LOL I hang my bag on the wall in plain sight of everyone and easily seen from my work space.. I never allow my weapon to be out of my control either. Id rather face being fired and a trespassing or a weapons' possession ticket rather than find myself adding to the gun problems or be found needing it and not having it on me. My job is not as important as my Rights and is simply put, not worth relinquishing my life for. I simply refuse to bend to cooperate demands that encroach on my Rights as a Citizen..
@@lc6636 FACTS!! I retired at 35 as a High School drop out.
Amazon here in California don’t offer enough breaks nor any breaks longer then 10 legally say we’re given 15 min and they say we are given 5 minutes to walk to break area and back but it takes 5 minutes to walk to break area and takes 5 min to walk back and if we’re late by a min we will get written up and eventually fired; Jeff should give more then 5 min of break.
jeff Bezos should reimburse all of them.
hey she was warned
- I drive a POS…carbureted, 5spd w/slipping clutch- powered nothing, no radio (listen to sounds of valves/lifters)…. don’t even lock door 🤷🏻♂️
I wonder what marginalized, misunderstood group is committing the crimes. Nothing will ever change until the criminals realize they will pay for their choices.
Also, maybe their mothers will start turning their angels in to the police for carjacking, robbing, assaulting and for terrorizing society. Then again, maybe the mothers will continue lying to themselves that their sons are innocent angels who are always being blamed for crimes never committed.
Lmao
Working at amazon =high school mixed with county jail 🤣
Well who is the mayor of Atlanta and do you see the pattern it’s the same one that’s going on around the United States name the city that’s imploding A member of the Democratic party, Andre Dickens
Go cry about it to BLM
@@JohnWickkkk Boy isn’t that the truth BLM certainly turned out to be one of the most corrupt BS organizations going everyone got duped
But this occurred in Union City, a totally different location from Atlanta, Amazon does not have a Warehouse in Atlanta and never has.
" During orientation, they said don't leave valuables in your car "......... so I left my purse, gun, and brain in the car, and they stole it !!!!
They told me during orientation to not leave anything in my car due to the history of car break ins at their location. If I knew they had a car break in issue there I wouldn’t have applied. I learned all of this on my first day. When I clocked out 19 cars including my own was broken into. I did not know.
This happens at alot of Amazon warehouses. And they say it's not their responsibility
Vote accordingly
Wait didn't she just say in training they said "Do not leave any valuables in your car" then in the next breath she is going "They broke my window and took all my valuables from the car"?
Training videos that informs employees that their personal property is not safe is an employer one should not work for because they don't care.
car is just a tool for transportation, my advise is, just get an old scrappy domestic car and put a new engine and parts in to make sure it runs good, and that's it, trust me, no one will want to break in for anything
Soft liberal laws keep these thugs out of jail
It's obvious that the Union City Police Department is well aware of the concerns at this location and nothing has been done about it. It looks like Amazon doesn't care for the safety of its employees let alone personal property that belongs to the employees
Lack of armed security to patrol the parking area
Welcome to Atlanta!
Same thing happened when I worked at DHL back in 2016. I made the staff park inside the truckers lot where the fences were to protect the workers. If was the same group over and over again. Once they say we moved all our cars to inside the gated the thieves moved on somewhere else.
same thing at the Vancouver airport. MOST employees have a mile long parking lot to park in their designated spaces. My parking back then took me a full 10 minutes to get to the workplace by foot (yeah, that far) and of course, when it's winter time, who would want to stay out and police the lot?
For a multi billion dollar company. Not even gates with badge scanners.
Or security that drivers around the facility.
❤Your so right.
This happened to me at my last job, and without asking the company reimbursed me for the cost of the damage. And they are nowhere close to the size of Amazon.
At Yamaha, in Newnan, you can't get past the guard unless you have a work badge. If you work there and forgot yours, they won't let you in. Even if you get dropped off for work you have to walk past the guard and show ID badge.
The scariest part of her testimony is that her "gun" was gone. It's being done by a gang of teens that live within walking distance of the place and know the layout of the entire area. I've been a victim of this at my college parking lot. I left a $50. radar detector visible on the dashboard, and somebody put a rock through my drivers side window to get it. Cost $400. to replace the window. The campus police told me when I reported it that "it happens all the time" and there's nothing they can do except file the report.
No security cameras? Really… 😂
Sounds like Amazon could invest a few pennies into security......
After being WARNED FELICIA STILL LEFT HER ">>>>"G U N"" in the CAR....DUM DUM!!!
Yet, they were warned not to leave their stuff in the cars.... and they did anyway... well guess what.
A lot has changed since 2016/2017. I used to work there around that time. We had no problems with that. They must have changed security companies. I'm surprised this is happening.
I also quit because they kept breaking in cars right here in Memphis Tennessee at the Amazon on citation road and the company does not care
What a shame for these people.
the funny thing is 😅😂 they know they are coming and still can't stop or prevent it LMAO
This happened several times at the Amazon MQY1 site in mount Juliet, Tn.
I wonder who could have done that?
sooo glad i work at gm & they have all gates around and u have to go through security to even get in🤞🏾. still then i dont leave my valuables in my truck honestly
my work has issues with this , and they do nothing ...
I work at a urgent Care in Jonesboro, Georgia. Approximately 3 weeks ago someone broke into 11 cars, most belonged to the doctors and nurses caring for the sick patients. A few of the patient cars were also broken in to.
That’s sad Texas could never
