It just made it more fun. There was a liquor store nearby so drive to it on the 30 minute break, pound a couple 100 proof 100ml bottles (99 Apples), back to it. That job was more fun than stow.

If you're curious can read the subreddit /r/amazonfc

They did recently start allowing you to buy their own approved headphones but before you'd get written up for being on your phone/having headphones in



Could this be just a real preview of post scarcity? Intellectuals imagine it as a world where everyone researches warp drives and ancient texts all day, but this - everyone perpetually working safe and drunk sorting trash in eternal pain - sounds potentially more realistic than that.


I appreciate the irony of your optimizing your own experience as ruthlessly as Amazon optimize their operations.

Hate the game, not the player.


I’m always amazed at how easily ppl admit to drinking and driving..


We would drink in the parking lot before walking into work

Then 3 hrs later the buzz is gone by next break

I have an amazon shrine haha to remember
