Hey man, nice seeing you. I noticed you from the start
Oh! You the one that recognized me. Sorry I couldn't chat longer as I was on the job doing my training. =D
@@BeatTheBush You are famous! :P
@@BeatTheBush good, I probably be bored...
You’ve beaten the game and you’re coming back to finish the side quests.. nice
Somehow that comment is very flattering. Thank you.
Such a nice way to look at it ❤️😊
Once you've beaten the game it's best just to start a new game than go back.
"Malfunction with the drug test" - Yeah bro, we've all been there maaaaan
Lmao
yup, esp. when youre early retired
He just experienced it ! 😂
Lol... everybody saying the same thing! Well I did pass the second time around since the first time, the cotton swab broke off.
10/10 comment. I can not stop laughing
Can't wait for the next video: I Got Fired Working at Amazon Fresh.
lmfaoo
That might be! We shall see.
Why did you get fired? 😯
Now that he’s retired he beats around the bush full time.
The bush is well beaten
I didn't make a video of the actual beating yet.
Lol
Its so funny seeing a millionaire get excited for an everyday regular job😂😂 no hate bro been following you for a couple years now. Keep up the good content
If you can imagine doing something new is fun.
lol....BTB, from self-employed millionaire to working a 9 to 5 job, and getting caught as the TH-camr that you are, I guess the major objective in life is to have enjoy life, have fun and experience new things! ;)
Indeed, even going to the job interview was fun and exciting.
I'm intrigued. I worked at Amazon as a 2nd job for investing way way in the beginning before all of the hype, and it was fun for a while. Yet, after awhile the physicality and toll on my body was not worth net result.
I'm glad you're having fun!
They probably have a lot more automation now.
Is this why my Amazon Fresh grocery bags have been coming with a little tear here and there? ;)
Lol... when I do it right, it doesn't tear. =D
This video brought me so much joy
=D
That’s kinda funny… outta the hundreds of videos you’ve posted-he remembers you as “the YT guy who doesn’t want to do videos anymore” 😆
Maybe he just watched the most recent ones?
The bag opening trick😂😂😂😂I like💙!!! In the grocery store you would knock the cashier out and the register!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
You prob cannot do this at a grocery store.
@@BeatTheBush We were specifically told not to do that when i worked in a grocery store.
I love hearing your experience working at different places. It sounds like fun :)
Fun only when you are in the learning phase.
YES! I love these, please McDonalds or Walmart next
Stay tuned! I might just go for it.
Imagine BTB handing you your BTS meal at McDonald’s….that’s too much..😄
Amazon shopper job is not glamorous. It is very boring and many disgruntled people.
I suppose I'm gamifying it trying to be the best.
Really want you to become a quantum leap type character and just work at different companies and change people's lives.
You gave me a GREAT idea. I'm not sure how I can help but I could talk to people and see how I can help them with my knowledge in finance.
Have you had chance at making any new friends yet ? That's your engineering mind opening them bags like that, looking at a task that needs to be done and thinking how can this be done more efficiently. How about designing a machine that can dispense a ready open bag haha
I met the two that did the training with me. A bag opener? I am almost sure they have those.
Lots of people get paid to play video games these days via streaming, with the more successful ones earning 6 figure salaries. I feel like you could have success as a streamere
Might be fun but then I'm no longer that into video games.
BTB like those tourists who have excursions on the farm for fun to see how the locals actually work and live.
Why pay for a tour when you can get paid to tour?
honestly i enjoyed bein mailman for a summer years ago before i got my software development job. It was fun because i could drive around countryside for money (it was farm area) and i had to drive in total over 120km (about 65 or 70 miles) once a week and teice a week once a month, ofcourse the money was pretty bad but it paid for my (used) car and the summer weather was awesome and i got to pet alot of cats and dogs that came to greet me! basic low paying jobs that seem bad are usually not that bad and if youre good worker you can appericate those times when you're older.
That does sound fun for a short time. Do some dogs not just bark at you instead of being friendly?
You talk about kilometers, so you don’t have employer provided, but you have to pay for, health insurance. Which country? My insulin is 150$ per vial w/o insurance & my BMI is on the low side of normal, so I’m not overweight.
I clicked because of the title and I’m still not sure why lol
=D Thanks for watching!
Starts around 10 minute mark
might tear your rotator cuff swinging that paper bag
It's super bad for him I hope he will figure that out quickly!
Really? I still like doing that but maybe not if I have to do 1000 bags a day. But I think baseball players have it much much harder.
If you're reading this, hope you have an amazing weekend! You have unlimited potential and I hope you have a very successful week ahead!
I'll try!
BTB: I retired early. I’m bored. I’m going to work for Amazon.
Me: I retired early. I’m bored. I’m about to travel the world.
I sort of did my fair share around the world. But working at a new place is more exciting than visiting a tourist destination for me.
That what 99 percent of what peoples want to do. Due is like 0.001 percent.
An engineer optimizing the paper bag technique. Mr. Miyagi would be proud. :-)
I can say, I'm using that technique and it works.
If you are wanting to try a fun and exciting job, try being a baggage handler at the airport. The work is pretty fun, you get to drive around in tugs, operate heavy machinery and be around cool planes. And you get toss other people's luggage.
BeatTheBush must be VERY bored
I have A LOT of time now that I do not have a full time job.
@@BeatTheBush Love to hear it! Can’t wait til I can retire 😎
RIP amazon fresh workers being publicly shamed by the title/ thumbnaill.
Until you know the reason why.
Professional bagging competition next!! We used to do that back in the day.
I wonder where they have those? I'm sure it's far far away.
Why don't you get back to your engineering job? You had 5 years break
The bag trick is gonna be in upcoming trainings lol
First. Make sure no one is around. Then swing half circle!
did you know that opening a bag like that at Mickie D's is a NO NO. at least it was when I was working there it was? I do know that Founder Ray Croc made it a rule and your training included no flapping rule.
I think that might be because McD usually is very cramped and you'll hit other people doing this. In the warehouse, I have to make sure no one is around before I go swinging my arms.
Pine nuts aren't really good by themselves. It's better to eat then in pesto or on a salad or something. Also a lot of people are allergic to pine nuts so watch out for that.
I had them before but long ago. I guess I just wanted to try them again.
I always wanted to try work as a garbage collector once I'm rich. But I'm not rich yet.
Garbage collectors make decent income. 🤷
In my area, it's all robotic that does the lifting of the cans. So you're not a driver and garbage collector.
@@BeatTheBush Here they usually have one driver and two guys bringing the bins to the robotic truck to dump the can. I wanted to be one of the two guys. Looks like a good workout, too.
If I win the lottery, I would like to try working in an underground sulfur mine.
Barista Fire
I would like to be a barista as well. =D
Your drug test malfunctioned?
Remember, weed is legal in California!
Hey BTB----measure your waist circumference right now before you go back to work, then measure again at some point in the future. Your method of opening the brown bag and putting it in the cart is like a waist whittler. Do that forc8-9 hours a day for a few weeks & I bet you see a difference!
Hmmmm. I sort of have an idea how fat I am by seeing how tight my pants are.
😂great video btb
Thank you!
I worked @amaxon fresh for 2 years. It awful n boring. I wish they gave us those hats in our warehouse.
I can see it can get boring very quickly. How long did it take before it got boring?
@@BeatTheBush well, probably after learning everything. Afterwards, it’s just work. Sometimes I listen to music and hide them when I’m in the chilled section. Since, I don’t want get caught and written up.
Boxable home by Elon musk. I plan to purchase they cost $50,000 but. Whole install is $80,000. I found a trailer park which they are planning me to install. I will pay about $500 a month to lease there land. I hope it. Goes through. Downey California
I really enjoy your Amazon videos👍🏼I don’t hear any negative points of working at Amazon warehouse it’s such a pleasant change‼️I can’t wait to start Amazon Fresh Warehouse ❤️
Geez you got sun burn on your nose
Hey question! I am thinking about working at Amazon Fresh as flexible shift, I can’t seem to find anywhere online is it a “contact” position like 1099? O
Try Uber eats see how much you can make
I figure it's largely similar to doordash. Plus, I should use my M3P hauling food.
Nice video
Let me guess. You tested positive for opium because you eat poppy seed bagels?
Lol. Cheek swap cotton broke in half.
Ever tell your coworkers you are a millionaire?
Nope.
Make sure you follow ergonomics as you open bags
Good idea.
Watch out! With your expertise in efficiency they are going to want to make you a supervisor.
That would be great!
This guy is wild!! Why not live abroad? Korea is fun.
If BTB says more nice things about working environment and experience in Amazon facility, Amazon recruiters will love him.
Lol. I try to be positive. But really, nothing negative stood out this time for me to mention.
Over here in Germany, Amazon works with a ton of sub companies mostly for delivery. These companys will pay less and have a worse work environment. I wonder is there a similar system in the US ?
That's what I read in the news as well.
Yep. Nut Thins are good.
The cheddar one seems to not match well, but the ones I had on camera are not bad.
Lol. That's awesome.
Beep. Beep. Beep.
Fun fun!
Cool!! Love your videos
Thank you!
im currently working at amazon fresh and they never tell me to take the drug test.
It's because of those poppy seed muffins 😄
could be!
were you allowed to pee once per day? We’re you paid during the pee time?
I pee'd many times and any time I wanted at least during the first two training shifts.
Had to leave a comment just for the "boom!" innovated way of opening the grocery bags. Made my day!
your way of opening the bag requires alot more energy. u would need to eat 1 big mac b4 your shift to break even with the other method
Possibly. The sum of 10 smaller moves might cost as much energy.
That bag opening technique will cause danger to anyone close by you. It might be an option when you are by yourself but that rarely happens when you are at a store or work place. Be careful, man.
On my 3 week truck bed camping road trip I found Snack club Tajin peanuts with chili and lime and hiking in the grand canyon they recommend salty food for electrolytes with plenty of water and these are like sour and salty and have fiber they have crunchy ones on amazon in nice packages like those pine nuts they have a sweet wheat flour crunchy shell
Sonic fan! Excellent. I recognized bag, lol. There's a Ding Tai Fung in San Diego!
Oh yes. I like eating there.
Oops, oh no!
I found apple chips at my local grocery store "Salted" with cinnamon and sugar
Also checking dates I usually keep a certain amount of things like one bag of each chip so I try to run out before they go bad jalepeno chedar corn chips seasoned wheat pretzels salsa canned seasoned tomatoes cans of corn peaches pears chili diced tomatoes I really like the little debbie or entenmens chocolate chip or blue berry muffins blueberry pop tarts coconut whipped cream is the absolute best get some carmel iced cream and half and half hot chocolate I stay stocked up on peanuts and cashews mini wheats cheese is good for a couple months sometimes I'll get a bag of cinnamon rasin bagels and a thing of whipped cream cheese frozen texas toast is the best 8 minutes and a warm oven wet the bottoms with some water from your hands and use reuse parchment paper get it just up to temp soft warm 5 cheese garlic bread I get 6pack 20oz bottles of arizona and I have a mini fridge I get a case of red bull and I'll fill the arizona with water and I always have refridgerated water flavored drinks 12oz cans of sweet tea I get the big 1.5 liter bottles of water and gallons and reuse them a few times I work outside so they get dirty and I just buy one every once in a while and rotate and swap in new stuff
nice video! Thanks for sharing your experience and feeling.
I love macadamia nuts and they are about $29/lb. Many co-ops sell pine nuts and macadamia nuts in bulk, so you can buy as little as you want. Also, bulk is usually less expensive. Check out your bulk aisle sometime.
Pine nuts are hard to come by! Maybe at Sprouts.
Working there you can see what other people are ordering like oh that sounds good I'll try this or I'll try that and spending so much time at a place like that you can find out what they can get and where they keep everything so you can find some real fancy exotic or special stuff with no effort
It sort of lets you get a view of what is good just from the volume.
Can the webull stock be converted to cash? $1,000+ is pretty crazy just for signing up and depositing a penny!
Read the fine print. It's UP TO $1000+. So there is a chance you get something that valuable. You just sell it to get the cash but you have to pay short term gains taxes.
Why don’t you learn how to draw instead of working at Amazon? You would acquire a great skill and it’s much more intellectual and better for your brain than doing warehouse work. Not that there’s anything wrong with warehouse work. Just a suggestion.
I don't really like to draw. Just my preference. Actually my brain is working overdrive trying to optimize my work so that I am the fastest. After I find a maxima, I might just start repeating which then will get boring.
@@BeatTheBush Ah okay. Got it.
Coincidentally, I just got hired at Amazon Fulfillment, too. Cuz I’m bored. How exactly does the $1000 bonus work? And did you get paid for vaccination?
$1000 is 50% first month, 25% second, 25% third, they may change this to something 1 month slower. For fresh, yes I did get a vaccine bonus.
why are u working in a warehouse sir? you hold a masters in elec engr
For fun but the fun doesn't last very long.
Do you get a free amazon prime membership by working there?
Nope.
There's a whole world of possibilities out there of things to do and you go back to work. It's really depressing you can't come up with something else.
One at a time!
Yeah working with food makes me hungry also 😋🥦🍎
😋
CAN YOU MAKE A VIDEO ABOUT AMAZON WORK FROM HOME
I cant because I don't have a work from home type of job.
Whole food free delivery is no more next month
Yep.
I'm going to work a 12 hour shift today construction!
Work safe!
Why did training take you 9 hours for bagging groceries?
They have procedures you must follow. And systems to use.
Can't you apply to engineering companies and get a bigger sign on bonus with your resume?
I'm not optimizing for the most money.
If you shop one order per hour or package or deliver 1 order to a car per hour and you work 8 hours you basically get paid $10-$20 per order to shop bag or deliver to car which is a good price for what you do as a job and what it saves you as a customer from shopping your own order it can be all online and you know exactly what you can get without walking around and searching aimlessly
I think I pack way more than 1 order per hour.
@@BeatTheBush I meant if. Like a well paying valuable service and an easy job I did this at a local grocery store at the same time I worked at a sort center part time
Is working at Amazon hard on your body?
4 hours wasn't too bad. It was a lot more sore working at the fulfillment center.
dang. only 5x to know DSP and IC design. yikes
Yes. ONLY. Remember it's 4-5x more. But if you think about 4 or 5 guys working, and you make as much as that, then it's pretty good?
You will hurt your shoulder one day by doing that.
Hmmm, you might be right! From repetitive motion.
Do you have any interest in going back to an engineering job?
Low interest.
NEXT VIDEO: WHY BEZZOS IS SUING ME
ORLY?
CC is generated in Vietnamese language. Wanted in English subtitles.
Lol. I didn't eat any of those.
I don't get. Why work at amazon? Again?
It's a different type of position.
Did you that fact that you were an engineer on your application? and did they ask about it?
No qualifications are needed. So engineer position is omited.
Everytime you upload I drop everything and tune in
Thank you!
Just curious, what kind of health insurance do you have?
A pretty basic one I pay out of pocket in full and not under any company.
Thank you for your video, question I remember you making a Citibank video where you have to to contact an organization to straighten things out. Can I have the link of the video please. Thank you 🙏
Try this: th-cam.com/video/yp4Jq3NCtqw/w-d-xo.html
Thank you very much my friend
I always get the ad paper but is it a store you go to or you order on amazon fresh section?
You order directly on Amazon but the fresh section you can select a 2 hour window for delivery.
The hat looks great on you! Glad you’re enjoying working at Amazon as a change of pace.
Thank you!
Great video and good luck with your job!!!
Thank you! Will do!
Good to hear your having a good time at it. With my back I couldn't do it but sure would like to and it's not for the money but for the fun of it. Anyway thank you for another great video.
Back? Hmmm yes, there are some heavy lifting for some items such as 24pack water.
Have you told your colleagues that you have a MSEE?
Nope.
Why? It's irrelevant really.
Awesome, love this type of content.
More to come!
You look happy :)
It's fun... for a while....
Omg they give out free Amazon merch?!?! :O!!!!
Not really. These are used for working.
@@BeatTheBush if you are able to keep them, I consider them free merch Lil. Imagine a job where they require a uniform/gear/equipment except you have to pay for it out of your own pocket? Yes, there are many jobs like that lol
