I quit using Amazon because the third party delivery company locally is owned by a neighbor that hates me. They sided-lined 10 or 11 packages in a row or just wouldn't delivery them from their distribution center. I'd call support and they said the company just refused to delivery. They would send a ticket to the center. And they would ignore it.
And amazon would sit on the return for months because the delivery company would re-route my packages to have a delivery date months out. So amazon would sit on the refund for months waiting for the delivery date.
One driver apologized that he had to ask my neighbors first before delivering anything to this address.
And Amazon didn't care shit in my opinion. No privacy as my packages were opened. No nothing but some folks in another country on the phone telling me call back in a week.
And that jackass delivery owner is a rich, blackmailing, federal agent piece of shit in my opinion.
Amazon is just another criminal sycophant-making machine in my opinion.
Bring on the robots.
I mean, we are about to hit a tipping point where there will be enough poor, unfed masses to rise up and tear down this disgusting charade of a society. We have been running on fumes for so long, I can't even believe modern civilization is still standing.
The only reason why we haven’t toppled (at least in the US) is because not enough people are missing their 3 meals. The second that happens for a large enough portion of the population the country will disintegrate. Food shortages are a massive destabilizing force and will force massive changes to compensate.
You are way more positive about the future than I.
The robots are there to replace the apologetic delivery driver, not the rich asshole. They'd never let that happen.
Bots can just as easily be programmed with an address blacklist. At least a delivery driver with a spine could choose to ignore that list, if his livelihood wasn't on the line...
A great example of only caring about something when it effects you.
I dunno, this is way more personal than what the idiom usually presents, it isn't really representative of most experiences. Now, I quit Amazon when they started pushing the 51st state merch, cause I can get most of what I used Amazon for straight from China and cut out the fascists playing scrape the value in the middle
Call your state ag and report them.
If it were me I’d be out there with a camera every fucking day reporting a single blade of grass out of place if i could.
Contact the irs and tell them you think they are cheating taxes ffs.
I would not fuck around.
