I'm constantly wondering how Amazon keeps finding workers at all. The pay is not that great. How are they convincing people to break themselves? I know we all get desperate but it has to be something more than pay right? ๐

Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.
Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

They hire literally everyone, including people that don't normally ever work that type of job. Only like a third stay after the first week. And it's still more money than fast food.
There are a lot of people out there struggling to put food on the table, to afford rent, and to pay their medical bills. When you have no other options, does it matter whether the pay is great or whether it will break you? When the problem today is surviving, you can ignore the problems it creates for tomorrow.
