a 30 pound box fell several feet right onto my fucking head today and i’ve had a migraine since then. feel super fucking tired, like i’m trying extra hard to think normally right now. and our safety team told me i can go back to work because i seem normal
while everyone else including my manager expressed concern at my still being there. and then in addition they kept me in the exact same process that lead to me getting hit in the first place!
and no i’m not going on private because i want this company to burn to the fucking ground!!
and the reason i got hit?! my department has been put under immense stress and pressure by operations, and in order to go FAST we have to cut corners! this includes not having time for certain safety measures! or even certain quality standards!!
so i reached above me to grab a box, didn’t see a box was directly behind it/on top of it and the second box crashed down onto my fucking head.
meanwhile operations are trying to get their numbers by overstuffing the conveyors, i.e stacking up boxes that as they come down the conveyor, fucking fall off and strike associates. i’ve been struck countless times from boxes falling off conveyors.
maybe i’ll delete this thread later but i’m pissed, everyone should be pissed. i’m sick of hearing “thank u am*zon associates for working so i can order my dumbass nonessential stuff during these unprecedented times!”
i don’t know if people realize the fucking hell we are going through on TOP of working through in an overcrowded facility from over hiring, new cases being reported in our FC, and getting written up for not being 6 feet apart.
it’s really fucking hard to be six feet apart when there’s too many fucking people staffed in each area and they keep. fucking. HIRING!! and then they have no places to put us! so they let the extra people go around with a clipboard writing up associates for not being 6ft apart!!
