Should we consider ourselves scabs for working on International Worker's Day while others are striking against Amazon for terrible working conditions?
OK, I'll avoid Amazon Requester stuff.......oh, hey, I already do that. So, I'm good(within reason,.. well, reasonably good, that is).

Yah, it's a tough one. Labor really needs a revival. Hopefully, a lot of "low-skilled" jobs getting labeled essential will help incentivize that.

Morning all. Happy May! Some people say, the best people, that it's a tremendous month.
must be your birthday month. :)

verdict is still out for me - last month of strong spring winds related to changing seasonal weather pattern vs. last month with reasonable daytime temps before the mega heat arrives in June. :thinking:

Nailed it. And I like the weather where I am at during this month also. Still get some rain showers, but it's warm enough that they are enjoyable at this point and not too warm.

Way off-topic, but has anyone else noticed way more ads on Youtube - it's in between every song new on my playlist

Happy Birthday, Katarina! I'll bake you a ? when mixes return to the shelves.

back online!
Jan's alive! :celebrate: ?

well in that case, I was wondering how much more difficult has it gotten to grab hits now that covid has everyone home? Is it as bad as people say it is? I ask because I have not had TOO bad of a time grabbing hits
you're probably doing all the HITs the rest of us don't want to do. :LOL: I find catching decent things a struggle while short, low-paying things a little easier.

Should we consider ourselves scabs for working on International Worker's Day while others are striking against Amazon for terrible working conditions?
hard to feel bad for our isolated, safe working environments. availability of work and some of the pay is a different story.

Yah, it's a tough one. Labor really needs a revival. Hopefully, a lot of "low-skilled" jobs getting labeled essential will help incentivize that.
let's work on improving the skills first. i'm not sure empty shelves at the grocery store means the back area is totally empty awaiting the next truck from the warehouse. when i go to a restaurant, it'd be nice if i was not handed an incorrect order at the curbside (happened twice out of about 8 times i've ordered food for curbside pickup). Let's not take promised month, actual 2-3 weeks to ship me my amazon order.
