They opened up two that I know of here in Mass and it looked like they were paying $14-17/hour for warehouse work which seems phenomenal for unskilled labor

I thought they used mostly robots these days? And aren't their warehouse workers overseas somewhere striking?
 
I believe that in exchange for the gigantic tax breaks that Amazon gets for building these warehouses in certain states they are required to employ X amount of people, specifically low-skill positions

I'm one of those that believes most jobs take a skill to do them right. There are very few jobs that you can just walk into without an ounce of training. And warehouse jobs are usually hard work. I doubt I could do them. Back killers! :lol

I'm glad they have to hire some real people. Maybe those real people will put more than one little air sack in a huge box when shipping my order.
 
Mr. Green working at Amazon warehouse job now, lol. They do use robot but it's not what people think. The robot have no arms but nothing more than moving square hand jack. It move into position and lift the pod around. The pod require people to place item into them for storage, call Stowing, and require people to pick them for customer's order, call Picker. They do hire all age, ***, nationality. Most of the positions are labor intensive but some lucky few get to do light work like auditing and problem solver.
This is their strategy of bringing the product/business closer to the customers. The warehouse is like 2 to 3 square blocks. It takes 5+ mins just to walk back from break.

Their delivery men need some skills on handling packages. I had two today they left on the step, that could of easily fit in the door.
 
It's just not about skills. Some people just not good at hard work or quick enough physically. A tall, strong, young guy can easily sucks at some of the station they have.
 
She couldn't be the bigger person and let it go.
