    Yeah, Asura and Lebowski have it right. As a director of a UK company it’s your legal obligation to maximise profit. Besides that there’s the fact we’ll be waiting a long effing time for Amazon to be nice to everyone who works for them of their own accord.

    They need to be legally forced.

    Haha, Brad, your post. Buying **** you don’t need just because it’s discounted - the true spirit of Prime Day!

      If maximising profits means mistreating people then it's time to ditch legal obligation in favour of something of far greater value - humanity.

      Besides which, these huge corporations are not autonomous machines and therefore unaccountable for their impact on people and the environment. Human beings run them and put the practices in place. The decision to track Amazon workers using GPS, the decision that talking with fellow colleagues or arriving to work one minute late or spending longer than 3 minutes on the toilet earns a strike and 3 strikes and your fired wasn't dreamed up by a computer; a human being put those rules in place. When an Amazon picker broke her foot and was told to take a pain killer and finish her shift, it wasn't a robot who told her that, it was a human being.

        Oh yeah, people are arseholes. People are the worst. That’s why we need legislation though, because people are always gonna be like that. People should be nice. But they’re not and it sucks.

        ive depressed myself now.
