😅 well that’s good your PPE is provided. girl yes - working that schedule definitely gives you the opportunity to feel like you have time off…you can recover and still have time to take care of personal business without using leave. 👏👏 this was a very comprehensive guide!
Love your analogy of the pros and cons. Very well communicated. You appear very well educated and look at others options within Amazon that better fits your education level. Im sure there's a waiting period before you can apply for other areas. But, best of luck to you!
timberland pro's are pretty comfortable. I just got mine coz this lady "KIZAJ" also on yt highly recommended them, theyre very comfortable no break in required. Timberland PRO TITAN® Alloy Safety Toe Black Full-Grain Leather. Merrell Work Siren Alloy Toe are my second choice.
Greetings, from all I've seen of Amazon videos. May I add a con, please.. Why, no, Bayer aspirin? Some ppl ride Ford, and some ride, Gereral Motors. ❤️Bayer aspirin, & Ford.❤️ Now let's knockout a shift. 😉 very nice professional video too, btb.👍(did the bed, just say, thank-you?)🙃
I work at amazon, it’s very hard work but I never found a job with so many extra hours opportunity. I always am able to do overtime. My pay is 16.30$ - 16.80$ an hour but over time is 25$ an hour so it’s very high opportunity for someone with no degree or anything
@@ALLTHINGSARRIE oh ok that’s awesome to hear!! I hope you doing good. I’m watching some of your videos right now acually about amazon and it’s very informative. Thanks!
From reading so many Amazon horror stories, you would think that management would see that it would be a good idea to have employees work have to shift doing one type of position and the other half doing another type of position which would give their bodies and opportunity to not be so sore or kind of rejuvenate. They probably keep a lot more employees if they would do that rather than have an employees do so many hours at one job. Almost like cross training employees.
The no music thing is a safety standard by Amazon. If an associate is injured at the time music was playing, he/she could say they were unaware of the hazard because of the music, a case that Amazon would likely lose.
Your hair is pretty 💛.. thanks for the video, very informative and the pros are great but that con on standing on your feet the whole shift is got me second guessing 🤔😁
Hey Arrie, I just chanced on your video and I find it really interesting. Can you share with me your thoughts about the Area Managers and what they do? Do they have seats?, also on their feet all 10 hours? ..any information will be helpful. Thank you.
To be honest I’ve never seen the area manager in person so I would say so…. They just said if we ever saw her to watch out because there was trouble😂….. daily direction and management came from The PA’s and assistants..
It really depends on where you live and your facility..you would just need to check to see if part-time positions are available at the one you would want to work at
I love ur hair like this 😍 .. what? Weekly paychecks.. shoot im sold on the no dress code.. hello pajamas lol you've got me thinking about applying! I'm just worried about people with pets outside 🤔
Congratulations! The problem is that steel toed shoes are required… the best shoes for statins all day is “Hoka” and they do not make steel toed shoes from my search. I feel it mostly depend on your arch. I do recommend that you get your arch checked to make sure that there are no issues before you start working. Anything with a good arch support and memory foam has worked best for me… Skechers has some comfortable ones to me
At first you will do the same job task all day… then you will be cross trained on other task. Usually at the beginning of your shift you will be assigned to where you will work for the day, but sometimes you may be pulled during your shift for other tasks
Vacation time is accumulated every pay period… it’s not given to you up front…. Depending on how long you’ve worked there depends on how much you get and if you work full time or part time…. I think for a full time new employee you can accumulate about 10 days a year
@@Melisa-356 I just checked and there is no Amazon Warehouse there in Kenya….. they do offer work from home positions but I’m not sure if they are hiring in Kenya or not
Oh no! It’s definitely rough on the body at first! I can say that it gets much easier as your body adjust. I have to make sure that I treat my body after each shift and get plenty of sleep since that’s when the body heals. Take good care of your body hun… praying it gets better 🤍
Now with ADP's Wisely card & anytime pay, you can access your pay as soon as you clock out and your shift registers as over. It is the best!
Oh wow! That's so nice!! I think a lot has changed since I was there
Her hair and style is a whole mood.
You’re so adorable and seem so genuine 🥺 I’ve been working at Amazon for 3 weeks and already used all my PTO bc I’m hurting so bad!!!
I’m so sorry … this job is definitely hard on your body! Are you hurting all over are just your feet?
The pros definitely outweigh the cons for me. Thanks for keeping it real.
Yes… always!
Girl I'm digging that shirt! It's different 🥰
Thank you! Chris got it for me at the pop up girl!
@@ALLTHINGSARRIE you gotta tell me about those pop up shops again!😁When&where they are? I think you had sent me the link or something 🤦

You seem like a good woman, I worked amazon for a few days and was real sore and eventually resigned.
Thank you…

Managers are also victims. Managers control shit at Amazon.
The no music thing is a safety standard by Amazon. If an associate is injured at the time music was playing, he/she could say they were unaware of the hazard because of the music, a case that Amazon would likely lose.
Most definitely! Everyone can’t focus on the task at hand as well as listen to music as well… I know I cant
@@ALLTHINGSARRIE I always have a song in my head regardless lol. I'm known around my building by my strut 🤣
Your hair is pretty 💛.. thanks for the video, very informative and the pros are great but that con on standing on your feet the whole shift is got me second guessing 🤔😁
😂😂😂😂😂😂yea girl… but with time it gets better💞
I agree with everything u say, I almost quit on day 2, the standing is too much for me OMG
Right!!!
Yeap I worked there!!! We were fighting for that time off at my location
Whew 😥
lmao I sit on the floor when stowing or re-organizing the bottom row of the totes. This is in a delivery station.
I’m so jealous!! I long to be able to just sit on the floor for a second 😂…. They kept making us get up every time we tried🤣

Good Input- AM
Thanks for this! Does Amazon allow part time work? I would only want to work 30 hrs because I have another part time job
It really depends on where you live and your facility..you would just need to check to see if part-time positions are available at the one you would want to work at
how many hours do you work each workday ? thank you for the great video !
10 hours… 4 ten hours days then off 3
OMG!!! Here in CA people won’t work a job that pays $15.00/hr minimum. They have to offer at least $17.00/hr to get ppl to apply 😨
Well the cost of living is much cheaper in the south…. Minimum wage is still very low
thanks for the video
Excellent vlog , and it gives me more idea bcoz I always love shopping on Amazon , see later .
Thanks so much!
Omg I’m about to cry, I just started last week and on Monday they just smacked us with a new policy for us flexRT shift no more UPT for us.
No way!!! Did they substitute something else?
@@ALLTHINGSARRIE yap points up to 7 and it will expire every 60 days.
I love ur hair like this 😍 .. what? Weekly paychecks.. shoot im sold on the no dress code.. hello pajamas lol you've got me thinking about applying! I'm just worried about people with pets outside 🤔
😂😂😂pets outside?
@@ALLTHINGSARRIE lol yes! My cousin said he came across an emu 🤣 I was like oh hell no!
@@SheilaKrisma 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 maybe it’s by facility’s… so far I haven’t seen any animals…
I start next week at Amazon in my area what kind of shoes do you think is best

You make a young boy smile 😍
How do you know what job/tasks you are doing all day? Do they assign you the same job for the 10 hours?
At first you will do the same job task all day… then you will be cross trained on other task. Usually at the beginning of your shift you will be assigned to where you will work for the day, but sometimes you may be pulled during your shift for other tasks
How about vacation? How many days of vacation do they have?
Vacation time is accumulated every pay period… it’s not given to you up front…. Depending on how long you’ve worked there depends on how much you get and if you work full time or part time…. I think for a full time new employee you can accumulate about 10 days a year
Is the unpaid time off for part timers also? And how soon after you are hired can you use it?
I’m not sure about part time… but you can use the time as soon as it’s available to you
*How often do they do drug test ? What if you take prescription medications ?*
I’m not sure how often they test… but they don’t test for Cannabis From what I understand.. other hard core drugs are tested for
Hello ma'am how much do you get paid and are u packer or stower?
18.95.... I was a stower
@ALLTHINGSARRIE oh wow that's gd money and thank u
@@RashadSims-bh3zz yw!
Very informative.
Thanks Marquita! 💞💞💞
Can people wear night pants?
Yes as long as they are decent.. I see people wear them all the time 😂
@@ALLTHINGSARRIE awesome.. I like the mens night pants, comfy ones👍🏻
I also just started working, if I apply for the dental, vision insurance do they take out money from my paycheck for insurance?
Yes they do… but it’s super inexpensive!
🔥🔥🔥
Very informative thank you for making this video. Wait... you just said you're over 40? You look like you're 20!
Thanks so much!!!

Are the 30 minute breaks paid or unpaid?
We have two 30 min breaks… we clock out on the first one and we don’t clock out on the second.. so the first is unpaid and the second is paid.
