      I agree, it's achy and repetitive, When I started to rotate from stow to Induct Unload, boy was my lower back in a world of hurt.
      It took 4 months to finally correct my biomechanics on how I go about work.
      The achiness went away like magic. Poof. Gone.
      Having correct form is undermined and not emphasized during training. There needs to be shadowing and hands on training, not Knet alone.

    I just got through my 1st 4 days and it's hard work due to the heavy packages, but the actual task of doing the job is easy. You have to move fast and if your body isn't used to physical labor, it's going to wipe you out in the 1st week. Hange in there because it'll get better when your body gets used to it all. GREAT JOB MIKE!

      It’s funny but not ha ha funny coming across this comment cause this is exactly why I’m looking for something else. No stranger to hard work by any means. Experience being in Sports, Fitness instructor up to 4 classes a week, strength training like Rocky with heavy weights to this day 4 times a week but at our center. That belt goes at that pace for 8hrs straight, having to cover 3-4 aisles. The only time it slows down, is your break, lol. This doesn’t include the work that goes into picking for about 3 hrs when your body is already done, where we’re timed to 10 minutes a cart or less. With the cart being filled with 9 bags or at times 40 boxes. OW’s included of course. We are seriously undermanned and it’s not even peak season. They want to get as much work from a small group than paying more money for more people, no sir.

      Or you could use the wristband on your leg instead, just loop it correctly and make it lose to make it comfortable, it's much more efficient as well as you won't have to be worried about forgetting your scanner since it's already on you ( especially when a bag is full or you have to scan a bin ).

    In this position, you need to scan 215 boxes/jiffies per hour. If you hear the "lee loo lee loo" it's a miss scan and you need to not do that too often because they can dock you for it.
    The thing I don't agree with is his dropping the overhead boxes on the ground. He should do the overhead boxes first, second the jiffies, 3 ird the boxes in the middle rack and last the top shelf boxes.

    I have gotten better with stowing. Muscle memory obtained. I did buffing, which isn’t too bad, but stressful when I am constantly getting heavy oversized packages. Even if I get team lift assistance, packages are moving fast down the belt. Stowing can make one tired, but I notice that the shift goes by faster for me.

    • @mikeeonfiya
      @mikeeonfiya  Рік тому +2

      Glad to hear you’re making strides with stowing! I really hate buffing, I’ve only done full shifts of picking/buffing a handful of times…but I enjoy the pre-sort picking/buffer which is only an hour.
      At the moment I’m bouncing around to induct/unloading next to stowing, time really flies by there..
      Stowing is really fun when you’ve stowed each bag properly, utilizing all the space neatly, so then at the end - you’ve got room to fit in that last big box that always comes last.. then you’ve become proficient. And you’ll be able to help neighbors if they’re behind

      @@mikeeonfiya I try to stow with proficiency, but also anticipating wide boxes. Most of the stowers who “help” me in other rows just stow jiffies and then place jiffies face down on top. They basically make avalanches. I constantly have to rearrange my stow totes. I told my managers about it. I don’t wanna be audited for a slow stow rate, if I have to constantly readjust stow bags so that I can fit a wide box into a tote. My bosses have told me that it’s better to have things stowed neatly and organized than to rush stowing. The learning ambassadors who trained me seemed to have a different idea, which is to be fast no matter what.

      You don’t have a clue how stow thousands of packages and understand the quality needed to arrive to the customer. My nephew gets toys from Amazon, so when I see toys it reminds me that I’m responsible to stow it correctly.

      Ask the PA’s about your stats, and take in stride to become better everyday, whether it’s to increase stow rate (pph), or precision by deceasing first scan failed attempt (FSFA). This is a way of turning the job into a game and having fun.

      You’ll be working RTS shift. The end of your shift around 1230-2am, you will unload Go-Karts and stage it for Unloaders at Induct.
      Or you’ll handle packages undelivered from drivers returning to station.
      You might digitally open bags as they are opened physically earlier in the shift.
      RTS shift is more autonomous and relaxed compared to Cycle 1, where the speed of work slows down significantly.

      Especially Stow; you can get ahead, stay ahead, keep the Picker from overloading the Buffer rack and help other aisles in need. I was only assigned to Pick maybe 5 times, I was horrible at that.

      unfortunately, this footage is quite old - I've only gotten neater with my stow and how I arrange it.
      My goal is to abide by standardized operation procedures SOP; where we stow in what they call 'Library Style' so that boxes are on the left, jiffies on the right, and Tetris-style to utilize all the space.
      Some stowers don't abide by SOP, they stow messy, and don't have room for bigger boxes towards the end...thus they close the bag, and open a new one. The new one will then only have 1-5 pkg inside, so less deliveries for the drivers.

Remember you can come back and clear Racks and Jiffies later if you have time... Also Remember You Don't going to be every night 300 - 400 + Stowing ...

      Yep, they offer voluntary extra time (VET). I was a part timer at 25 hrs a week, but I would usually get 27-30 hrs.
      I’m full time now, so I believe the same will be for you if you stick around for 3 months and work hard.
      Take care out there

    To anyone looking to work for amazon or works at amazon you will get injured just a matter of time doing the same repetitive movements over and over they don't care about you that job will work you till you are worthless then toss you out managers have easy jobs and supervisors you just have to be hartless and treat other work colleagues below you like cattle I was there 2 years and it's a meat grinder people that get fired after a few months are the smart one's if you need cash apply for amazon and do the bare minimum amount of work get whatever cash you can then dip that's my best advice 👍

      When a floater comes by I catch them and let it be known I fly solo. It's all good harm no foul...they'll understand when you voice up and say I got this, I prefer to stow on my own, I've got my own pattern and stow etiquette.
      Yeah, trying to maintain 400/pph club membership is hard because I spend too much time reorganizing as I go...fastest is probably 380.
      check out my latest upload..its my last upload to show everyone how to stow in sequence, using smart stow, stow cart, OV's, and 2 empty jiffy method.

    I feel like youre working way too hard. Im a stower myself, and i go at pace, but you're burning yourself out. You dont want to end up to the hospital. When i see you running it worries me. Please dont do it just to impress your managers. They have to understand. Just go at a good pace. I can see that youre a good worker though.

      Our warehouse is small, it ranges from 39-50k volume.

      They restrict air pods, but I jam on my Milwaukee m12 jobsite speaker.
      Music makes work fun and thinking back, the song that I remember Amazon is “Interworld - Metamorphosis (Slowed + Reverb)” - I played that song every morning driving to work at 255 am…
      Only the street lights glowed and instrument cluster in my car while its dark out before starting your shift. I’d play that song through out the shift to amp me up.
      Amazon was a fun job, so I’d recommend bringing a personal speaker to make it more enjoyable (although I heard they have PPE type ear buds now).

      @mikeeonfiya  Рік тому +1

      On this day my stow rate was 351/uph, and total stow volume was 1,580.
      * Edit: To hit 400/uph, you’ll need to average out ~7 pkgs per minute e.g., 5 pkgs a min, 60 mins in an hour = 5 * 60 = 300/uph
      ….or 7 pkgs a min, 60 mins in an hour = 7 * 60 = 420/uph
      You’ll hear 100% of the time that jiffies is how you can achieve 400-500/uph, but don’t get it twisted…box pkgs can equate to ~ 5 jiffies.

    • @mikeeonfiya
      @mikeeonfiya  Рік тому +1

      Single cycle sort and pick means you’ll be doing the last handling of packages coming from fulfillment centers, and you’re responsible to induct them, get it on the conveyor belt (receiving/inbound stage) pick packages belonging to pertaining alphabetical aisles, then stowing them into bags (like what I do here.)
      At the end, you’ll do route picking, and put the bags on a cart to be ready for drivers to pick them up and deliver to the customer (load out phase).

      7 months for me. I resigned recently but will probably reapply.
      Amazon has been without a doubt, the most fun job that I've ever had.
      I have a bachelor's degree, but when it comes to my Amazon DS - all of us Associates are equal; which I like.
      There is no talk about your accolades, your merit, your socioeconimic status, education acheivements, blah blah none of that, we all work together cohesively as a team, from start to end, making sure the packages arrive to the customer; from receving FC trailors > Water Spider > Unload > Induct Conveyor > Induct Non Con > Push > Divert > Sort > Pick > Stow...and ending in Pick & Stage. Physically open bags if we are ahead.
      Take care out there!
