I don't agree with it, but two day shipping is the silver bullet that separates Amazon from the competition. I don't hear these stories about Walmart or Costco's warehouses, clearly there's something about the way Amazon does business that causes these problems.

I hear a lot of horrific stuff about Walmart working, actually, including their anti-uninionizing efforts. Costco IIRC actually just plain cares for their employees and is doing well in its niche.

Sam's Club (Walmart) != Costco

Please refer to this documentary about Walmart. They're not just anti-labor.

While Walmart didn't invent bad behavior, they're pretty good at it.
