Ten reasons to avoid Amazon | Ethical Consumer in c/technology@lemmy.world

This just happened to me. I purchased shoes and they shipped via Amazon even though I didn't buy them there.

I think that's part of what people don't understand. Amazon isn't a website that sells stuff, they are a dozen infrastructure based industries.

Shut down their website and they still have the logistics to fulfill for the sites you shop on and their servers are probably hosting them too.

Goes to show, he should have made a run for it and hit a bunch of people with his car. Then he'd get a reduced sentence.

If they only spent this time and money on training the managers to...well, manage their employees.

Stop thinking "time at your desk" is a kpi and start measuring results instead. It cuts the crap employees that are worthless and that in and of itself is a reward to good employees and team morale.

I would rather have a productive employee get results in 4 hours and then leave than a crap employee who needs the full day to get the same job done. Then the good employee will learn to streamline it so they can get the job done in 3 hours and I win because my efficiency went up. They win because they get another hour of their life back daily...or dare I say, they want more work and I give it to them along with a pay increase.
