You riding your bike around waving at drivers disproves nothing. I often read warehouse workers are treated badly, threatening to strike, discouraged from unionizing and paid terribly.Are you telling me the news just makes this up?

You're obviously seeing what you want to see, and that's OK, just don't try push it onto others.

The context I made my comment was in regards to people saying "Amazon is awesome, I've worked there for 14 years.". I don't really see why warehouse workers shouldn't feel awesome too. If it's really a great company, they should feel pretty awesome.

tl;dr I don't believe Amazon is an awesome company based on how I see it treat lower skill workers, people who think it's awesome probably only feel like that because they're needed, as soon as you can be replaced by someone cheaper, you will be.

Do you think the blue collar workers who work at your company or probably outsource somewhere feel just as “awesome” as you do?

News alert: I bet your company would replace you with someone cheaper also.

Do you have outside investors? If so, founders get pushed out all of the time.
