Amazon to pay full college tuition for its front-line employees

My wife is currently finishing her masters while working 40 hours a week and still being a mom. It's very stressful, but she's killing it. One of the harder parts (aside from the long nights) was finding an internship that was flexible with her schedule.

I can imagine doing any two of those, with some difficulty. Doing all three is insane. Is her bloodstream, like, 30% caffeine?

I guarantee she's not delivering packages for Amazon.

I once heard they were suspose to deliver 500 packages a day.

I hope to a higher power I got that wrong.

That number is obviously wrong. Question your sources.

I would absolutely die with half of those responsibilities. Kudo to your partner.
