All the more reason to have unions, provided they are reasonable and good organisations, some unions in some parts of the world are not always forces for good.
Amazon pays less than it's supposed to for warehouse employees. Calling it a fulfilment center doesn't change what it is, a warehouse. Second, the wage has not kept up with inflation for years. It should be 25 especially for a multi-billion profit company.

There is no reason for Amazon to work its employees that hard or have restrooms that are football fields away. I have worked in industrial factory and warehouse buildings and a lot of them added restrooms for human decency in their older buildings and newer ones made sure restrooms and fountains were accessible. Further, the time limitations on Amazon workers is unrealistic. If they have to work 1 worker that hard, then they need to hire 2. Better pay is not going to make 1 worker, especially in a physical job, work like 2 workers.
Amazon is a good company with a good policy and of course if you own a business you expect your employees to work.

Correction: wages for other warehouse jobs are usually almost twice as much as Amazon in the US. Maybe compared to worldwide Amazon may pay more but in the US, other warehouse jobs have actually reduced wages over the last few years due to the low wages of Amazon making the warehouse labor market workers cheaper.
That is complete and utter bs. Show your source. Amazon's avg hourly wage is $18/hour. You mean to tell me that, on average, others make $72,000/year working at a damn warehouse?

There does also need to be trusted leaders within the Union. Mismanaged unions are one of the reasons they vanished in the 1st place. Keep dues low and membership high. Maintaining unions can be even harder than forming them.
yup 100%. many unions became an institution that it was designed to protect workers from. like all institutions with men many unions became super greedy. theres stories of union reps making like 4x the amount of reg union employee with union car n a lot of other extra benefits like that. pretty much all unions start off as good and over time thats what has happend to so many unions so hopefully this time around they can keep themselves in check for the greater good of thier work force.

I live in Australia where unions are a huge part of its history, influencing not just the commercial sector, but the political sector since the nation's inception in the late 1800s.

You don't understand how this works. When the bottom rung pay goes up...pay for every rung goes up. The "educated" obviously didn't learn they are underpaid, as well! When a CEO of a corporate burger company makes 6000 times what the burger flippers makes...everyone from the burger flipper up is underpaid! If the CEO dies today they will still sell the same number of burgers tomorrow. If the burger-flippers walk out the CEO will not be able to don an apron and flip 6000 times the burgers as one of their lost cooks. Proof nobody is worth 6000 times someone else. That's just evil greed...
@@DarkPesco I agree with your views on CEOs. I also believe these people need a raise and better working conditions but they need to be more reasonable. Going from 15-30 dollars an hour is ridiculous. 30 dollars an hour is as much as some medical professionals are making in some states with a 4-6 year education and student loans.
Which can happen because the NLRA rules allow management to use these divide and conquer tactics, since they have no provision I'm aware of to allow employees to unionize systemwide.
I think $30/hr is too less too Warehouse workers should make $90k minimum It's a very tough and demanding job. Lots of brain and muscle work is required. They should fight until they get $90k. Or just get another job that pays well.

We can’t even get over 5 days in Chicago. I’m in the burbs. Some Amazon jobs in the city have escorts behind them in the very high crime areas. Ups & FedEx as well. I did Amazon delivery & it’s not that ideal
Americans need to support unions to rebalance fair working conditions and living wages. I don't buy from amazon and will not until a majority of their warehouses are unionized. Since 1979 inflation and wages tracked together, after that time inflation has gone higher than wages can keep up. Back then if people would have bought union items made in america instead of buying cheap chinese stuff this could have been avoided. Vote with your dollars.
If you work at amazon and you don't support please reconsider for your own good and the good of the labor unionization movement. This is bigger than just you its for the future. Worked at UPS and left before the union got the approved pay so I didn't get any retro pay. Big disappointment but its the past and the job sucked anyways. If you want more you have to combine together its literally the only way. Either you force their hand or you make them bow to your will.

I think the whole idea of career is insane, asking people to perform the same tasks for years and eventually reaching a plateau of no growth. We should be encouraging people to try new jobs and skills not end up in a career just because that is what society has told you to do.

Which is why Amazon workers should try to unionize under the Railway Labor Act, which would allow them to unionize systemwide instead of one facility at a time.
It's unfortunate that Amazon can't form their union on the basis of the Railway Labor Act, which would allow them to unionize system wide with a single election. The NRLA rules requiring the organizing of one facility at a time allow management to divide and conquer, which is materially unfair.

Unfortunately, the laws of the land allow this nonsense to continue.

its why people aspire to a salaried position as opposed to an hourly one- no- brainer.
@@tommurphy4307lol salary is the worst because it doesn't adjust for cost of living increases, I'd rather get payed per hour and this is why all these old folks are working at 75 because of a fixed income, I drive for myself so no matter what I make money. Even if the economy is bad as long as I do more work I get payed more but a salary is for fools who love to be a slave
@@tommurphy4307 Salaried positions hold employees to working overtime (very often) w/ no overtime time or Holiday bonus. Equals to burnout and same as hourly worker. Fact.
Either way you look at it, it's not the company who determines wages. It's the government.
Y'all had no problem when the government dolled out trillions of dollars out of thin air, and when those with sense said it would cause inflation, you just scoffed and took the cash.
Now you are crying because everything is more expensive, and your wages stayed the same as three years ago.
You voted for this garbage. You get what asked for. Don't cry about it now.

Correction: wages for other warehouse jobs are usually almost twice as much as Amazon in the US. Maybe compared to worldwide Amazon may pay more but in the US, other warehouse jobs have actually reduced wages over the last few years due to the low wages of Amazon making the warehouse labor market workers cheaper.
That is complete and utter bs. Show your source. Amazon's avg hourly wage is $18/hour. You mean to tell me that, on average, others make $72,000/year working at a damn warehouse?

I believe in unions. Union dues are only a lil in comparison to what the company would take out per week for healthcare.
There does also need to be trusted leaders within the Union. Mismanaged unions are one of the reasons they vanished in the 1st place. Keep dues low and membership high. Maintaining unions can be even harder than forming them.
So true. My mother works for a company that unionizes. She never stops complaining about its union’s management.
yup 100%. many unions became an institution that it was designed to protect workers from. like all institutions with men many unions became super greedy. theres stories of union reps making like 4x the amount of reg union employee with union car n a lot of other extra benefits like that. pretty much all unions start off as good and over time thats what has happend to so many unions so hopefully this time around they can keep themselves in check for the greater good of thier work force.

I live in Australia where unions are a huge part of its history, influencing not just the commercial sector, but the political sector since the nation's inception in the late 1800s. In Australia unions are a balancing force, not a dominant force.

I work in a union shop and can say it's not all great. My union has sold out workers, not defended workers when they should have, and some of the stewards support some of the workers being sent home for the day. It's not a perfect situation. I'm grateful for higher pay but don't think all of the crookedness is going to come from management. The union has a slice of corruption too, and it's a big one. And I used to be about as pro union as it gets. Be careful, watch your back and don't trust everything the union tells you either. Trust me.

I’m all for unions. This is good news.
Level entry jobs should never be making more than those who worked and sacrificed for an education. Good luck trying to get 30 dollars an hour…
You don't understand how this works. When the bottom rung pay goes up...pay for every rung goes up. The "educated" obviously didn't learn they are underpaid, as well!
When a CEO of a corporate burger company makes 6000 times what the burger flippers makes...everyone from the burger flipper up is underpaid! If the CEO dies today they will still sell the same number of burgers tomorrow. If the burger-flippers walk out the CEO will not be able to don an apron and flip 6000 times the burgers as one of their lost cooks. Proof nobody is worth 6000 times someone else.

@@DarkPesco I agree with your views on CEOs. I also believe these people need a raise and better working conditions but they need to be more reasonable.

@@heyhihello9677 atleast 18 dollar then increase 1 dollar per year sound fair
By your logic why do ups and usps jobs exist then , who's delivering your stuff ?
And now watch them "cheer" when Amazon slowly filters-out work from this joint because these people start demanding 50 bucks an hour.
Which can happen because the NLRA rules allow management to use these divide and conquer tactics, since they have no provision I'm aware of to allow employees to unionize systemwide.
I think $30/hr is too less too
Warehouse workers should make $90k minimum
It's a very tough and demanding job. Lots of brain and muscle work is required.
They should fight until they get $90k. Or just get another job that pays well.
So give these unskilled workers $90000 each. Then they will need to raise their product prices. Then customers will leave.
Here in LA working 10 hours a 6 days a week, getting in and out dropping 250 plus packages in high double triple digits hot days is no joke. Eating on the go, and if you gotta go pee, if you're a guy they tell you carry a plastic bottle, worse if you gotta take a 💩 and have to make a pit stop fast food restaurant.
We can’t even get over 5 days in Chicago. I’m in the burbs. Some Amazon jobs in the city have escorts behind them in the very high crime areas. Ups & FedEx as well. I did Amazon delivery & it’s not that ideal
Americans need to support unions to rebalance fair working conditions and living wages. I don't buy from amazon and will not until a majority of their warehouses are unionized. Since 1979 inflation and wages tracked together, after that time inflation has gone higher than wages can keep up. Back then if people would have bought union items made in america instead of buying cheap chinese stuff this could have been avoided. Vote with your dollars.
Sad to say amazon will just fire those people
More than likely relocate like Walmart did. Close warehouse and relocate
LOL!!!!! Google employees, making min 80k a year, want MORE money?!? LOL!!!

If you work at amazon and you don't support please reconsider for your own good and the good of the labor unionization movement. This is bigger than just you its for the future. Worked at UPS and left before the union got the approved pay so I didn't get any retro pay. Big disappointment but its the past and the job sucked anyways. If you want more you have to combine together its literally the only way. Either you force their hand or you make them bow to your will.

But how do you define a "career."

I think the whole idea of career is insane, asking people to perform the same tasks for years and eventually reaching a plateau of no growth. We should be encouraging people to try new jobs and skills not end up in a career just because that is what society has told you to do.

It's unfortunate that Amazon can't form their union on the basis of the Railway Labor Act, which would allow them to unionize system wide with a single election. The NRLA rules requiring the organizing of one facility at a time allow management to divide and conquer, which is materially unfair.

See that's the thing that makes me really sad. I'm a disabled person. On Social Security. There's a lot of people in my building that is hungry. I go to the food bank every Saturday and get food for the people in my building that I know that's hungry. And the food bank here in Seattle Washington they give at least almost $200 worth of groceries every week. And it's from these wealthy stores like PCC sprouts Central Market all Costco all the big stores most everything we get is organic. And everybody that's 600 people in my building the people that's been here for a while all of them know me as the lady in the blue scooter. My stepfather was from Genoa Italy he taught me to help people that's the way he was and all his European friends we had a grocery store he used to put people on the book and make sure they had food to eat. Anybody that came in the store he would make sandwiches and give them food to take with them. My daughter is not 40 what she looks like she's 20 when she was three and a half almost 4 years old I took her on the streets and she resed the homeless people I'd have her to go give them food. And why did I do that for one reason my daughter is biracial and she's really very beautiful and I did not want her to be one of these beautiful girls banging all she thought about was herself I wanted her to think about other people and she still does to this day.
