"We are not anti-union, but we are not neutral, either."
Lol. The double-speak is absurd.

...so that means you're pro-union?
"We believe that unions are a threat to our customers, shareholders..."
...ohhhh.
But a welcomed threat!
"We're not anti union, we just believe that unions are a direct threat to our business model and need to shut them down quick."
If you refer to hints of union activity as "warning signs", then you're anti-union.
"Vulnerable to organizing", lmao. Yes, they put quite some effort into reframing.
for any capitalist to admit "vulnerability" is hard enough on its own lol
If that isn't the most punchable face I've ever seen... 100% the artist had a job but they didn't agree with the message
Unrelated, but it kinda bothers me that so many of these videos now feature one of these barely-animated characters. It's like they shake a doll in our face to try to keep our attention.
What a disgusting video.
Greedy, manipulative, despicable behaviour like this is why I take no issue with people who just repair their broken things by ordering a new one on amazon and sending the broken one as a return for a full refund. I'm not sure how a person could even feel remorse while pissing in the face of a company pushing shit like this into their employee's faces.
A surprising amount of people I know like to upgrade their graphics cards this way, returning their old card in the new box, getting free cutting-edge upgrades as soon as they become available on amazon's dime. Seems to have worked pretty well for them over the years 🤷
You haven't screwed over Amazon by doing that, though. You've screwed over whatever poor schmuck paid full retail price for a brand new GPU and got what you returned.
Sure, but they return it as well for a refund or new item. Both the seller and new buyer get reimbursed in full by amazon. Plus, it makes amazon a worse place to shop overall, and I don't think is a bad thing if irritated customers choose another site to shop from, loosening the near-monopolistic grip they have on online shopping.
Don't get me wrong, it's a shitty and immoral thing to do, generally speaking. It would make me feel guilty thinking about the poor schmuck who gets whatever junk I send as a return. I've been the guy who receives a busted piece of shit in my "new" package from amazon, and it's irritating as hell. But I think amazon suffers most from that type of shitty behavior because it poisons the overall trust people have in them, and makes it more inconvenient to use amazon's services.
So you might disagree, and that's fine, but it's because of the negative impact that shitty immoral behavior has on amazon that makes me feel 0% guilty overall, and hope the same scummy return scheme spreads like a plague to a point where amazon and wish have a similarly iffy reputation. Because I think they deserve to fall from their throne.
Fucking despicable.
I wonder if the guy who did this voice over is part of a union.... Probably just AI.
Don't scab for the bosses
Don't listen to their lies
Poor folks ain't got a chance
Unless they organize
