They operate off of the concept of people who want services pay for it. Hence they are affordable and do what they say.

I bought a thing that didn't fit my car, wanted to return it, they just refunded me and now I'm stuck with these things

Whole Paycheck? I went there because it was close, and I will never go again.

Its a shame they’re peeing in bottles, but do they have to toss the bottles all over the roads?
herejusttopointouterrors
lol. people love things. things above people. Amazon is anything but sad. it's fed on greed. that will never die
IAmDeer
Stop buying things through Amazon. Be the catalyst for the change you want to see in the world.

Geez, Amazon wouldn't be so massive if people weren't lazy as fuck and just went to the damn stores themselves.

Amazon's moneymaker isnt their storefront. It's AWS

Yeah, Wal-Mart is practically bankrupt because people are so lazy... did you give this ANY thought before posting?

I work at amazon, I've never had nor Ever told to pee in a bottle in the two an a half years I've worked at amazon.

Don't forget that they murdered brick and mortar bookstores!

To be fair they should have been selling books not brick and mortar...

Burned them down with Kindling.

Plus, I'll never forget in the early 2000s, Walmart got butthurt that amazon shipped to people's houses, back when walmart refused to.

The bookstores here seem to be doing fine (waterstones)

Oh, they're trying to murder gamestop, but they sure as FUCK won't!

GameStop is murdering GameStop, bro

Increased storage has finally made getting thing digitally more convenient. Amazing has nothing to do with them dying.
Amazon* stupid auto correct.?

Gamestop is basically a bloated corpse that only moves when somebody's jumping on it, anyway. Let the poor thing rest.

NZSheeps
No, that was Fox Books

Don't cry, shopgirl.

No, no... I'm pretty sure it was millennials who did that.

And not paying taxes. The UK PM just told us we're all paying more National Insurance. Then a story broke that while Amazon made 40 billion
sambaah05
Your numbers are wrong, I knew there was no way Amazon made 40 billion in the UK. Their total revenue was 20 B. Check your numbers. Sauce:
https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2021/sep/07/amazon-uk-arm-pays-38m-more-corporation-tax-despite-19bn-sales-rise
during the pandemic as profit, they're only paying 43 million in taxes...like.. bruh...Amazon could pay for the NHS all by itself...
I think they threaten countrys... like "if we have to pay taxes, we will leave this country "
roofield
Best Buys have closed just as Illinois raised minimum wage. Coincidence?
Probably. They probably don't say it like that. "We'll have to cut back our business operations in this region if the tax rate increases".
TBH they are probably paying kickbacks to the Tories (they're basically our Republicunts) so they don't have to pay for some BS reason.
Look into your state's enterprise zone program. Amazon is not the only leach
Exactly, kinda scary how much power they have..
Clockworkdancerobot
And the insane amount of waste they generate. Just trying to keep things in warehouses they destroy tons of perfectly good products.
IconicM
I mean, it would just be different warehouses if it wasn't Amazon.
Not really. The store products for sellers, who just throw tons of stuff at them, and instead of paying storage fees later, trash it.
And what do you think those sellers would be doing without Amazon?

I worked in shipping and receiving at a Walgreens warehouse and the losses due to damage are considered acceptable at 10% on arrival

Wow, did people ever like steal stuff and claim it had been damaged instead?
No, but people were fired for eating candy from damaged packages.

One of the reasons my company won't allow anyone to take damages, repair or rubbish.

My neighbor received a package of mine by driver error, she called to tell them and they told her to throw it away! She gave it to me.

Not to disturb the gathering pitchforks, but it has nothing to do with bloat or greed. They can't verify that people didn't tamper with it,
IRememberLarryInAlbuquerque
Ah the crisp autumn breeze of logic.
I called them and asked was that their policy and couldn’t get a consistent answer from anyone I spoke with.
korothesilverwolf
A new one than it is to keep people honest. Glad to see she needs no keeper 2/2
Iirc bc your neighbor has it and she might lie and keep it they can't verify it reached you for sure now that she has it. Easier to send 1/2
Sounds like a bloated corporation.
Sounds like a customer focused company. Any problem I've had they fix it in days. I bought a meal kit from Kroger, realized some ingredients
Had gone bad, tried to take it back, and they made me drive home to get the receipt. Amazon would never do that.
