Holy crap Amazon is on a roll.... They plan on hiring over one hundred thousand people in the next eighteen months.

And old school retailers will let go 120K workers?

About 15K retail job losses have been announced so far this year. Even Walmart is predicting job losses.

It's business Darwinism. The last 3 years I have bought a few thousand dollars worth of goods and services from Amazon mainly as well as some from eBay and Newegg.

It's a changing of the guard.

^ government policy has nothing to do with this and I am sure the *red hats* are well represented in the workers who will lose their jobs.

Probably a lot more

The McDonnalds around me are installing those little self order stations. Seems the $8.50 jobs are no longer safe... What will GFY webmasters do?

poking fun at them while you yourself said that you work in warehouses (not exactly much different league than fast food jobs).

This is good news!

Barry-xlovecam · 01-12-2017, 08:25 PM

I got me a new job -- meet your new boss -- meatbag!

Amazon has completely changed my hometown of Seattle the past few years. Driving one of the biggest home markets in the country. They occupy so many buildings right in the middle of downtown it's insane. Bringing a lot of tech talent into the city though which benefits us.

Barry-xlovecam · 01-12-2017, 08:32 PM

Macy's, K-Mart, Sears and Walmart are not technical wonders ... case closed.

I don't actively work in warehouses.. I do it from time to time and when I do I make more than $8.50/hr.. It's good to keep skill sets in use and I like driving heavy equipment. Taking a job, when you don't really need it is a lot different than taking a job and working the daily grind. Personally I don't mind working, I tend to do it in 2 to 3 month stints anymore than that and I get tired of it..

Last place I worked, I was making $18/hr and a short term contract job and I walked away with a bit over $10k worth of items for my resell biz. (They were shutting down part of their company. I worked for them in the past and they needed someone to come in to inventory their stuff for auction.. I bought a lot of it. It was like printing money, I inventoried it and have access to the PO's so I knew exactly what stuff cost)

I'm not really money hungry, I make enough to do what I want to do and I'm not worried about buying fancy cars or whatever, I enjoy the freedom of being able to go where ever I want with out worrying about what I'm leaving behind.. It's called "FREEDOM"..

Sears and Macys. Sears will most likely just go directly out of business at this point. Their CEO is an ass who seems to be more interested in lining his own pockets instead of keeping the company going.

I am the same way. I did buy a new router at Best Buy, but that was because I needed it right then, not in the morning. But at this point we buy most of our stuff through Amazon.

We should form a bowling team. Finally somebody who understands economics and the American economy.

It's incredibly evil what McDonalds are doing, to combat it we need to create jobs by knocking down bridges, GFY poster's can then get jobs rowing people across the rivers

Paul Markham · 01-13-2017, 02:43 AM

100,000 jobs that will cost 200,000 shop jobs. The only difference is the wages Amazon pay and the tax revenues.

The real loser is the taxpayer, less paying in and more taking out.

This is inevitable, the problem will hit you soon as the pool of people with disposable income shrinks.

This is how it will affect those in the webcam business. 100s more webcam girls will be online as independent girls. Taking business away from you. Also, a few more managers who could afford webcam girls, now can't.

But you are right. Government policy to stop this rot is nowhere to be seen.

OK Paul; you hope I fail like you did and become a disillusioned, bitter old man ...

You are a communist you want the government to take from the elitists and bourgeois and give to the proletariat. How is this to your benefit -- you are in the proletariat class now?

No 100s of camgirls will be online independent just like it has been since I started in 1999.

Having their money frozen at Paypal or trying to use Western Union.
Having stalkers chase their messenger name.
Losing or having to lose their messenger name and make a new one, try to contact all the customers and update to the new name until the next time they get stalked, rinse and repeat.

That gets old and then they quit camming or move to a professional platform.

Or they get a job at the new Amazon warehouse in their town

Amazon's new own delivery service is AMZL_US, and it's terrible.

The problem is localized to whoever Amazon hired to deliver their packages in your area. Quite literally it is a average person carting Amazon packages in their own car. I have seen one driver pull up in a beat up Honda, filled to the brim with packages, and with his mother manning the GPS. Nothing wrong with it (except security), but some of these people scan items as delivered to meet a delivery quota, mainly because they can't make it in time (before 8-9pm). They will scan it as delivered and either deliver it very very late (> 8pm) or early next morning. Its something Amazon is aware of, let them know you are having a problem if its happening more often than usual.

Seems like Amazon is now using some Uber / 1099 contracting business model to deliver packages?
