    The sad part is these people are not really employees of Amazon, they are hired by a third party that partner with Amazon. If Amazon ever end partnership with the third party then their job is closed. If the third party ever end business with Amazon then their job is in jeopardy. If they got hurt or injured during the job, Amazon won't take responsibility. If the job there's any emergency occurance happen during their job, Amazon wants no part of it. That's the danger of working for Amazon through their third party affiliation.

    I hope the Amazon workers join the Teamsters Union! No, being a Teamster is not a perfect utopia, but they will get better wages, benefits, and possibly a pension! I’ve been a Teamster for 27 years! Best thing I ever did in life!

    Good luck to the teamsters, standing up for worker rights by lawful, peaceful protest.

    This is coming from a former Republican: pay Amazon workers what they want. Where is the government? They should be supporting the workers.

      Ask Biden he's the president, and why should government get involved? Amazon is their own company, besides there isn't any employees striking, it's a Teamster protest, involving contracted drivers for manipulation

    Here's the deal, it's not Amazon employees striking, it's a teamsters protest. The drivers that are there are independent contractors who are trying to get Amazon employees to unionize. My opinion it would be stupid to unionize.

    Is Amazon too big to fail in the 5 Boros? I wish the Striking employees well as employment outlook across the board..doesn't look promising for 2025.

    Great video! 🇺🇸Tom-We need you bad! USA has allowed-13,099 murderers & 15,811 convicted of sexual assault allowed to walk into our country, on top of that there are 1,900 pending homicide charges & 4,250 pending sexual assault charges. Imagine the amount of additional CRIMES that are committed in our country, they also receive money on a monthly basis from taxpayers

    I get it and worked as a mgr for the efficiency engineers and opposite as a union Stewart.
    They are not employed by amazon, like hiring a Christmas help for your gift shop.
    Amazon will drop those subcontracting after Christmas, and they are all out, just stating the facts like it or not.

    The media is crazy. The real Amazon workers are inside working to sort and load the packages into the van for the drivers. Real Amazon workers don't wear blue uniforms which are worn only by third party delivery people. I hope the driver who got pulled out of the van and arrested will be paid his day's wages by the Teamsters; and, they will have to pay his legal bills as well. Do some real reporting!

    If those employees think that Amazon is going to fold to the unions they are truly mistaken. The union is misleading these employees when he says that the rest of the Amazon employees from other states are going to join the strike. Almost 45 states of the 50 states are right-to-work states. These guys are going to lose their job over pressure to join a union. If you're not happy working for Amazon, just quit and find a union job somewhere else in the city. I wish you luck, if you can get one and see if that union rep is going to pay your bills, including the rent

    That sounds like a trump dodge, "they aren't Amazon employees" sounds a lot like "I've never met that person before." when something goes south.

    As they should. Workers should be paid more than what they already have to make ends meet and it's their right to protest for it 👍

      All I'm saying is if you sit on your ass all day to the point you're on UA-cam, finding a better job is a lot easier than it is for them. Especially because the economy is terrible right now. You're ignorant and weird.

    Ugh u don’t have to work the full 10 hours!! If you’re not lazy or a shitty worker u can do 142 stops in 7-8 hours no matter what and u don’t have to rescue people it’s not mandatory so u can go right back to the station…..that’s light work!!!!! I was a dumbass and went super fast when I first started and kept getting hit with 187 stops but I still banged that shit out by 7-8 no later and we’d leave the wear house at 11:55 so these people are just lazy or physically aren’t fit to do the job smh

    What happens after Christmas and new Years?
    They'll all be fired and arrested for trespassing.
    Amazon can always refund and replace packages and it wouldn't do a dent in profits.
