The Awaited Reply

The good news was an Amazon representative did reply to their plea but what they replied was nothing closer to what they had expected. A representative of amazon named Aisha replied in the comment section expressing her concern “Oh no! I am so sorry your daughter received this note in her package, Kim. We’d like for our team to look into this for you. Please fill out this form at your earliest convenience. Thank you.”

Overreacting?

The couple was in utter disbelief with the reply they had received. Kim and her husband then thought this might be someone’s prank and that’s why the company didn’t take it so seriously. But was it so?

The Discussion

The other day, Kim had a discussion with one of her neighbors that made her more suspicious than ever. She too pointed out the recent controversies regarding the amazon employment practices which were quite absurd, she said while doing an interview with the daily mail.

 Investigation

When they started to investigate further, another case came into the light where, in November 2017, an investigation was brought up which acknowledged the kind of treatment the amazon employees were getting. And what came out as a result of the investigation left everyone in surprise.

Another Incident

In the warehouses in Tillbury, Essex in the United Kingdom, the company was accused of making the workers work till all their energy was drained out and they even had to take certain workers to the hospital every day due to the exhausting number of hours they were made to work. So was the note true and not a prank?

Reports

The reports revealed that the work in the Amazon warehouses was so tiring that they had not a days’ target but had an hourly target which they had to accomplish which included packing the goods in every 30 seconds, also they had time bondage regarding toilet breaks. Due to exhaustion and uneven hours at work, some workers were found sleeping in the shift.
