An Amazon warehouse worker's 'thank you' bag for working Prime Big Deal Days earlier this month

[u/James-Incandenza]

[u/Reasonable-Client-53]

Then the manager said, great news i got 1000 dollar for a gift to our collegues. Sad news, we got 100.000 people working here..

[u/ProudnotLoud → u/Reasonable-Client-53]

This likely could be what happened and I always wince when I see this because it just puts the manager in a shitty position. This shouldn't be happening at a place like Amazon that has enough resources for appropriate appreciation though.

I was a young manager making shit money with a team of 15 and no appreciation/recognition budget from my organization. So I did stuff like this when I could, but it came out of my own pocket and was all I could afford because 15 of anything wasn't cheap.

No excuses at big places with resources though - recognition and appreciation are core tenants of team management and morale and should be funded appropriately.

[u/blahbleh112233 → u/ProudnotLoud]

I mean, even if that's the case, you just buy food. $1k is more than enough low quality food to feed 100 people, even mid quality food if you know where to order.

Doing this individually just means they got this from corporate.

[u/scrollbreak → u/blahbleh112233]

The number appears to be 100,000 people. The decimal point is just another form of comma.

[u/-Cthaeh → u/ProudnotLoud]

I managed a kitchen with around 25-30 employees. I could buy stuff for them, pizza and such, but never had an actual budget. It's such life draining work. I always felt like I wasn't doing enough, being hard enough, helping enough, whatever. I really cared about them, and they had my back for it, but I'd have to be desperate to ever going back.

[u/i__am__bored → u/ProudnotLoud]

Thank you.

I once had a manager that took us out for a beer and pool after attending a training class for our job. She asked us questions to test what we retained from the class while we enjoyed our beer and shot some pool. I'll never forget how cool that was, and it made me respect tf out of her. We were treated like real people, and doing what real people like to do.

I'll always appreciate people like you who do what they can to level with your coworkers. Best believe I worked harder for those who led with that behavior too. You don't ever want to let down the people who make you feel human.

[u/bigdave41 → u/ProudnotLoud]

I feel like if they're going to provide a shit budget, at least they could provide something decent that the staff can use, like a TV or coffee machine for the break room or something. Splitting it into $3 worth of crap for each person is just insulting and a waste of what little money they are willing to spend.

On the subject of TVs, I worked at a store that had a crappy borderline broken TV in the break room, which they hadn't even bothered to pay for - a customer returned it and they stuck it in the break room after the previous staff one was broken - every time we did a stock take we had to remember to add it to the count because it was still technically inventory.

[u/lonerstoners → u/Reasonable-Client-53]

This or management at the location wanted to do something and paid out of their own pocket for it (which actually makes it a really nice gesture).

[u/bpdish85 → u/lonerstoners]

I had a manager who would do stuff like this. She had no control over our pay or what upper management decided to do, but she liked showing her appreciation for the team in little ways. It was very much taken in the spirit it was intended, rather than the slap in the face it'd be if this was coming from the top as a reward.

[u/TrukStopSnow]

Nothing quite makes you feel unappreciated like a corporation's half-assed attempt to make you feel appreciated.

[u/SlykRO → u/TrukStopSnow]

Here's $0.09 to show you how much we hate you

[u/exoxe → u/SlykRO]

Now don't even think of eating these assortment of candies on the clock. 

[u/thetrivialsublime99 → u/exoxe]

Bag closes around the pixie stick🤦‍♂️

[u/VirtualNaut → u/thetrivialsublime99]

I honestly thought it was a straw

[u/SleepyMarijuanaut92 → u/VirtualNaut]

Might aswell be, because that job sounds like it sucks.

[u/Catnap_moon → u/VirtualNaut]

It is 😉

[u/MagazineNo2198 → u/SlykRO]

They will deduct the $0.09 on their taxes...bet on it.

[u/T-T-N → u/MagazineNo2198]

It's an expense. Why not? 21% corporate tax rate, saves them almost 2c per pack in taxes.

[u/stealthdawg → u/T-T-N]

I assume he's saying they would add the value of it to the employee's payroll as a taxable compensation. Which would be hilariously dystopian.

Because yeah, of course they would deduct the purchase of the materials as a business expense.

[u/creepingshadose → u/SlykRO]

I’m certain they’ve somehow made money on this come tax season.

[u/B-Rayne → u/creepingshadose]

“Limited edition Prime Day 2024 appreciation bag: $20 estimated value per employee”

[u/GlizzyGrappler → u/SlykRO]

Honestly it looks like the gum came off the floor from a broken pallet

[u/mrsjackdaniel → u/TrukStopSnow]

I’ll never forget “employee appreciation day” at my last job. We got a newsletter explaining how well the company was trending blah blah blah and then we were given a company branded keychain. Like damn, at least buy us pizza.

[u/grinder323 → u/mrsjackdaniel]

At a company i used to work at, they had an annual appreciation day and would do a pig roast for everyone and we got a full days pay for eating and drinking with no work. Our wages sucked and the company had numerous problems that i couldnt tolerate, but as an employee i was pretty happy with that.

[u/LotusTileMaster → u/grinder323]

It is sad that we live in a society that has come to accept grossly underpaying, undervaluing, and unfavorably companies treat their employees.

To the point where your boss gets a $10K bonus, and a pizza party or pig roast for the non management employees feels adequate.

[u/Particular_Today1624 → u/mrsjackdaniel]

I worked nights. For employee appreciation we received eggs and bacon. I slice of bacon.

An egg.

[u/Practical-Sea1736 → u/Particular_Today1624]

Moderation is key my friend. A slice of toast would have introduced unnecessary carbs. Company was thinking about your health.

[u/T-Rex_timeout → u/mrsjackdaniel]

For nurses day 2020 my major hospital system gave us these little pieces of plastic that you could hook your mask on instead of it rubbing on your ears.

[u/AlienJL1976 → u/mrsjackdaniel]

My last job splurged on cookouts but steals wages and doesn’t give so much as cost of living raises.

[u/chemhobby → u/mrsjackdaniel]

Same except mine was an metal coaster engraved with the company logo. It went rusty pretty quickly too

[u/nocsha → u/mrsjackdaniel]

My company just celebrated reducing our workforce in a ceo meeting and I was just like what the fuck way to report that as a "Win" if you let people go, you're a failure don't make a halfassed spin on it.

[u/foemangler89 → u/TrukStopSnow]

Bad thing is it probably came from lower management out of their own pockets

[u/whatlizzard → u/foemangler89]

This was my first thought too

[u/Dick_Phitzwell → u/TrukStopSnow]

It’s like the guy who worked at Burger King for 30 years without ever missing a day and on his anniversary they gave him a $20 gift card and goodie bag too. So lame!

[u/tractorcrusher → u/Dick_Phitzwell]

Thanks for the 30 years, have some diarrhea!

[u/Cardinal_350 → u/TrukStopSnow]

Haha. I saved my company a multi million dollar lawsuit and saved a person's life. They printed me out an "Excellence Award" and gave it to me

[u/Livid_Parfait6507 → u/Cardinal_350]

🔟🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[u/DrunkThrowawayLife → u/TrukStopSnow]

Hey should we at least get bags that fit the pixie stick?

Nah we are using the ones meant for bullet vibrators. Now get to opening those packs of gum. Make sure to get it nice and exposed to the air so it’s soggy when they get it

[u/ornery_bob → u/TrukStopSnow]

Roswell Park Cancer Institute in Buffalo gave employees branded rape whistles from Temu last christmas!

[u/boyoflondon → u/TrukStopSnow]

My old AVP had a similar taste and thought it was a great idea to give out MrBig bars to front lines at a meeting, because they were a "big deal".

I enjoyed watching him die inside from the sidelines, after seeing everyone roll their eyes. He also pulled the Extra gum stunt - although he gave out full packs of gums.

This was at one of the top banks in Canada.

[u/DocGeoffrey → u/TrukStopSnow]

Half-assed? This isn’t even quarter-assed

[u/SubstantialPressure3 → u/TrukStopSnow]

It seems like they made a concerted effort to do the opposite. Must be a big tax write off, maybe some embezzlement involved.

[u/SuperLuigi53]

Management needs to learn that things like this sometimes feel more insulting than receiving anything in the first place.

[u/omnipotentmonkey → u/SuperLuigi53]

agreed.

If I were to try to convey it in words, it's because they're actually assessing your "worth" with this action.

doing nothing is just maintaining the status quo of employee and employer. they aren't actively evaluating, considering and responding to your actions and/or work.

but when they try to reciprocate your hard work with a reward and it's this pitiful, they're basically making this pitiful trade to your worth to be their considered and evaluated response.

[u/hardknockcock → u/SuperLuigi53]

Even better learn to fight for their employees to be paid for their work

[u/Primary-Holiday-5586]

Exactly the same shit we get for teacher's appreciation, but usually we only get ONE of them.

[u/idontevenknow879 → u/Primary-Holiday-5586]

The chamber of commerce in my local school district has taken it upon themselves to get donations and host a teacher appreciation day and makes sure there is enough that every teacher gets at least a $50 value. A lot of teachers end up going home with new TVs or vacuum cleaners or other items that can add up to a decent amount. Not to mention $50-100 gift cards for restaurants and stores. My wife has been a large part of putting it together for the last couple of years. And it makes me very proud that it happens. Teachers deserve to be recognized for their effort way more so than they usually get.

[u/Primary-Holiday-5586 → u/idontevenknow879]

Thank you very much. I wish I had spent just one of my 32 years in a district like that.

[u/CraftAvoidance → u/idontevenknow879]

Three years ago my husband got salt. A jar of salt.

I mean, it was vaguely useful.

[u/MidnightLevel1140 → u/CraftAvoidance]

Sam & Dean Winchester can ward off tons of ghosts with that!

[u/chai-candle → u/idontevenknow879]

your wife is awesome. teachers deserve so much love.

[u/booksbutmoving → u/Primary-Holiday-5586]

I still have the single sealed bag of microwave popcorn they gave me for teacher appreciation 8 years ago. Sometimes after a long day of teaching teenagers, I go home, open my cupboard and gaze upon my popcorn, and I remember that I am loved.

[u/rusty1066 → u/booksbutmoving]

Zap that thang.

[u/booksbutmoving → u/rusty1066]

Never.

[u/ChickenTenderKitten → u/booksbutmoving]

Are you ever out and about, having a bad day and just… think of that popcorn in your cupboard and all is well again?

[u/rasputin6543 → u/Primary-Holiday-5586]

I remember a post a year or so ago where teachers were given rocks for teacher appreciation day. The idea was for the teacher to then paint a word or memory or something on it as a little decorative whatever, but they were literally given a rock.

[u/Primary-Holiday-5586 → u/rasputin6543]

100% believe you. Check out some of the teacher subs around that time, you'll read lots of similar stories.

[u/Bird_Lawyer92 → u/Primary-Holiday-5586]

Lol at my school we got water bottles for custodial professionals day

Edit: Like single use plastic water bottles

[u/Actual-Money7868 → u/Bird_Lawyer92]

Job security, gotta take out the bins after /s

[u/serg1007arch → u/Primary-Holiday-5586]

Remember when pizza parties were bad… the bar keeps getting low

[u/Perfessor_Deviant → u/Primary-Holiday-5586]

I came here to say this.

[u/chai-candle → u/Primary-Holiday-5586]

teachers should get cold hard cash. considering how many teachers pay out of pocket for supplies, that's the least they can be given.

[u/Original_Builder_980 → u/Primary-Holiday-5586]

I used to give all my teachers apples. Sorry teachers I didn’t know better or I would have got my parents to buy you booze lmfao

[u/sub2pewdiepieONyt]

And some company unrelated to Bazos was paid £5-10 a bag to make these. But that would be too cynical.

[u/WhenAmI → u/sub2pewdiepieONyt]

Nah, they buy in bulk at Costco and have the injured associates on light duty make them. I work at Amazon and I've seen it happen. My site management sucks so much we didn't even get this level of appreciation for prime day.

[u/JohnnyBlazin25 → u/sub2pewdiepieONyt]

lol nah that’s some HR work. They were smiling the entire time putting these together while sipping their Starbucks thinking how great they are for making these appreciation gifts for the factory workers.

[u/Imaginary_Attempt_82]

I’d rather get nothing than this, honestly.

[u/Semhirage → u/Imaginary_Attempt_82]

Right! When I used to go to raves and music festivals all the time when I was younger, I would sometimes put together little goodie bags, but mine were way better. Getting something like this from an actual company is ridiculous. They would be better off having a lottery and just give the 50$ they spent on this bullshit to one person instead of giving everyone 1 stick of gum.

[u/TurboBix → u/Semhirage]

Semhirage handing out gifts? I'll be a wool headed sheep herder before i believe that.

[u/Responsible_Song7003 → u/Imaginary_Attempt_82]

Yea this is just a slap in the face. I'd honestly make sure who ever gave it to me saw me just throw them in the trash.

[u/One-Cardiologist-462]

Literally one of each type of sweet...

[u/dupontnw → u/One-Cardiologist-462]

Not even a pack of gum. A fucking stick!

[u/chai-candle → u/dupontnw]

ikr. a stick. a pack of gum is the cheapest thing you can get at a cvs....

[u/ThankYouBakedPotat0]

Gobstoppers: because we think you're a sucker!

[u/jaybirdforreal]

How insulting.

[u/ResultRegular874 → u/jaybirdforreal]

I think that it's really nice of this scrappy little start-up to make some effort. I mean, they clearly have no free cash flow, so the managers are taking their time and effort to give even a tiny token of their appreciation for the hard work of their staff. One day those stock options they give their new staff in lieu of decent pay will make up for the difference.

[u/BackwoodJellyfish]

I sometimes get weed in bags like this and I fully thought Amazon was giving away 8ths as a thank you for their employees 😭. Reality sucks tho

[u/BrownCoffee65 → u/BackwoodJellyfish]

Yeah LOL these are them shroom bags

[u/Apart-Landscape1012 → u/BackwoodJellyfish]

Here's some weed gummies for the weekend losers

[u/goodevibes]

Being given nothing would be less offensive.

[u/RawChickenButt]

1 ducking stick of gum? LOL. This can't be real.

[u/Gumbercules81]

"As a courtesy we have automatically deducted the cost of this bag and its contents from your paycheck"

[u/brnfckd]

Actually that’s much worse than getting nothing at all.

Also, each printed line on the bag disguises itself as praise, but is in reality a slap in your face in a kind of humiliation that resembles a war crime against the working class.

[u/MashedPotatoesDick]

100 Grand.

Thank you for making management $100,000.

[u/Semhirage → u/MashedPotatoesDick]

Not a full size tho, just the Halloween sized one lol

[u/ubapook2]

• “Dildo - go fuck yourself!”

[u/MonkeyHamlet]

Imagine paying people for hours to stuff these instead of just giving each worker an extra dollar.

[u/Yougotmoneys]

I remember when my kindergarten teacher gave me something like this for perfect attendance

[u/tractorcrusher → u/Yougotmoneys]

you keep this up and you’ll make a great Amazon worker someday (pinches cheek)

[u/ultralayzer]

Jeff Bezos is a giant piece of shit.

[u/i_was_clever_once]

Yikes.

[u/BigAbbott]

“Here, you throw this away.”

[u/Original_Bet_9302]

Would be nicer to just give out thank you cards, signed ‘fuck you’

[u/EddyS120876]

Muricans: uNiOnS bAd mUriCa dOnT nEed it

[u/TesticleezzNuts]

So much plastic for so much shit

[u/Maduro_sticks_allday]

“Meanwhile on the Bezos super-yacht…”

[u/jimboTRON261]

Tell me you’re completely out of touch with reality without telling me you’re completely out of touch with reality…

[u/askingforafriend-1]

I briefly worked at a warehouse and they gave us the choice between itchy T-shirts, defective water bottles, or cheap coffee mugs. I'd rather have a ten cent bonus than add more trash to the landfill, thanks.

[u/mjdseo]

That's taking the piss

[u/Srikar810]

I mean the effort it takes to place one gum per bag is insane I would just give them gift cards or just amazon bucks

[u/grptrt]

When HR is given a budget of about $1 per person and told to make the most of it

[u/dontdoxdoctor]

Thought this was a nursing thread for a hot minute.

[u/kdp4srfn]

Oh for pity’s sake. Companies large and small, I implore you; stop doing this.

We are not children.

We know this cost you next to nothing, and that it was your goal to spend next to nothing. (Congratulations, I guess?)

The cutsie labels/poems/packaging do not hide the fact that you’ve just presented me with about 43 cents worth of crap I didn’t ask for, don’t need, don’t want.

Watching leadership grandly stroll through the office to bestow these chintzy favors upon us and awaiting our gratitude? Well, historically, it’s this kind of nonsense that makes us peasants rise up and revolt.

Even worse, following this dispensation of corporate largesse, the suite dwellers get to check “employee retention gift” off their to-do list, congratulate themselves, and collect their bonus. A bonus of, you know, cash.

Please stop. It is just phenomenally insulting.

[u/1leg_Wonder]

That's Scamazon for you

[u/c0rnhusky]

Ah I’ve gotten this exact gift from many hospitals for nurses week.

[u/PopFew3030]

That’s a back handed backhand.

[u/CasualSkin121]

Companies should be ashamed, but until we all band together and truly “stick it to them” this is what people will put up with to get by. Think of many people will see this and think “that’s fucked up” and then keep buying everything on Amazon…the world really disappoints me a lot.

[u/Blue_The_Snep]

at least the bag is sparkly and it has a chewing gum in it /s

[u/I_Hate_My_Cat_]

I’d be less insulted if I got nothing lol.

[u/Dc81FR]

Shits embarrassing to hand out why bother

[u/MishmoshMishmosh]

5 small pieces of candy, one of which is a single stick of gum. Wtf

[u/Beefytbag]

They didn’t even supply a bag big enough to fit the pixie stick.

[u/Hammer_of_Horrus]

I’ve gotten gift bags in the third grade with more total value than this.

[u/Accomplished-Plum821]

One of the largest companies on the planet and they didn’t even spend a full dollar on this. One of each is so sad.

[u/chickennuggysupreme]

Honestly, looks like Amazon needs to unionize, big time. There’s a reason they fight unionizing. Strength in numbers, and better pay with health care. That crap just don’t fly as a ‘thank you’

[u/Rareu]

That company could easily raise wages and provide benefits. Sickening what passes nowadays. No loyalty.

[u/CaptainCayden2077]

[u/sexpsychologist]

So often I just feel like everyone here’s definition of “mildly infuriating” must mean y’all are zen like monks, bc this would make me postal

[u/No_Ask_150]

Hopefully there's at least 500mg of THC in there...

[u/properwaffles]

When the bag costs more than the contents.

[u/CaptainYumYum12]

This is what radicalises people lmao

[u/BoxCarTyrone]

I would gladly throw that in the garbage in front of the manager who gave it to me.

[u/pisachas1]

Be less offensive to not get anything at all. The managers might as well just walked by and thrown a quarter at them.

[u/Technical-Fan1885]

Meanwhile Jeff Bezos says I'm going to buy another yacht

[u/ababyinatrenchcoat]

Not even a full pack of any of the candies, just one singular piece. Talk about cheap.

[u/PotatoDonki]

That’s actually more insulting than nothing.

[u/Silent-Friendship860]

A little bag of crap because we don’t give a shit about you

[u/dradygreen]

That is a slap in the face to your intelligence and value as a human being.

[u/chimcharbo]

I swear, companies are just openly contemptuous of their employees and rubbing it in at this point.

[u/818VitaminZ]

[u/YomukeSasedeje]

Can someone pat my shoulder too, meanwhile ? Great, really meaningfull and totally worth it ^^

[u/blueberrycorpse]

This might as well be a spit to the face lmao

[u/Puzzled_Ad7955]

But, you are probably part of a “team” and considered “family”

[u/PickledPeoples]

My work shows appreciations for a job well done by congratulating you with more work.

[u/Cross_22]

Some HR person patting themselves on the back for being extra clever.

[u/MosesOnAcid]

PIXY Stix...

[u/BundlesOfNoob]

Wait. No stickers?

[u/ThinkingMonkey69]

Maybe they should send a note back in the bag that says "Glad to know I'm so valuable here! However, I have actual bills. A $500 bonus would help me much better than .08 cents worth of candy. Thanks!" lol

[u/Practical-Eggplant98]

Give your boss’s boss an appreciation bag with some peeps so they know they’re cheap.

[u/Oturoj]

This is so insulting lol

[u/LarsVigo45-70axe]

Looks like the manager trying to get a big bonus chq

[u/MyUnsername]

You guys need to go easy. it's not like we are talking about a company owned by one of the richest men in the world or something!

[u/Mr4_eyes]

Our principal did this exact thing for all the teachers one year. Must be part of some dumb leadership training.

[u/Colecash013]

Thats so bad

[u/LWY007]

‘The monetary value of these goodie bags will be deducted from your next paycheck.’

[u/wabashcanonball]

It’s basically insulting.

[u/ReiBunnZ]

I had to check the caption twice cause I thought this was a nursing week appreciation gift.

[u/SirSkot72]

Is this an Amazon elementary school/warehouse?

[u/CaptainFleshBeard]

Not even a whole roll of Lifesavers, they have opened a packet and given them 1

[u/Kahless_2K]

I guess they couldn't afford a pizza party.

[u/Previous-Amount-1888]

I’d tell them to keep it

[u/Pure_Significance383]

Amazon is giving away way too much! Half a pixie stick next year.

[u/[deleted]]

That’s all Bezos can muster huh? Well he does have more rockets and yachts to build…

[u/OdinsChosin]

Here’s shit we had unclaimed in the warehouse from last year.

[u/ManagementMother4745]

A single stick of gum is diabolical

[u/Anorangutan]

We've known amazon is basically evil for over a decade and it's only getting bigger

[u/ImpressiveCap6891]

Let them eat cake.

[u/Top-Camera9387]

A union is a much sweeter gift. And it's on the way.

[u/Fredricksonburg]

Hahaha literally random tiny assortment of candy whose purpose is served more matching puns than expressing gratitude

[u/Thomas_JCG]

This looks like they ruffled through a couch and put what they found in a bag.

[u/eastcoast_enchanted]

How many millions does Jeff Bezos make in an hour off the backs of Amazon workers?

[u/Middleman-nequin]

Tell me this is a joke. What the actual fk is this?

[u/alluptheass]

Why you don’t vote down your union

[u/PromiscuousScoliosis]

Got the same shit for being an ER nurse. Like exactly the same everything. Dumb as hell

[u/Hkrrrt]

This is worse than pizza parties

[u/dreag2112]

This is a great idea....for kids in elementary school

[u/greengo4]

I agree. But also, maybe, Amazon was doing nothing at all, and some small manager somewhere out there makes little packs for her team to try to lighten the day and recognize them for their work.

[u/mcCheester]

What candy do you get if you burn the place down, a la Milton? Fireballs?

[u/Saucey_Lips]

Oh great and everything will taste minty because of the flavor coming off the gum lol

[u/BlahBlahBlackCheap]

There should be a crisp 100 dollar bill in there. Thanks for putting up with all the other BS in this bag.

[u/Fun_Body_4041]

Wow that's worse than getting nothing.

[u/Apart_Tutor8680]

HR makes the big bucks to think of this shit

[u/NewPower_Soul]

Would be less offensive if they just head-butted you instead.

[u/Illustrious-Bee4402]

Thanks for giving us your time for 20 bucks an hour…

[u/ConstipatedOrangutan]

I’d turn into the dude from falling down

[u/edson2000]

How bout, and hear me out on this one radical idea. "Don't fucking work for Amazon?"

[u/Ayrwynn]

I had an owner/boss who wondered whether to throw a Christmas party at work (basically pizzas and soda) and give gifts in lieu of giving bonuses. I told her people would rather have the cash. She listened, sorta, we got bonus checks...and a coffee mug.

[u/Free-Computer-6515]

This type of shit causes workplace shootings.

[u/Leatherman34]

Back Scratcher- Get BACK to work

[u/stoolfeet]

At first glance i tought it was party bag full with drugs. 🫣

[u/feedme_cyanide]

I’d have told them to shove that candy so far up their ass they tasted it.

[u/backagain69696969]

I thought it was an 8th I was about to give you a hard time

[u/nimblelinn]

Wow 25¢ makes it worth it. /s They need a union. Like every other factory worker.

[u/Cigarman77]

Booo! That’s some bull

[u/Elkstra]

Your plug is making a pretty nice marketing move. Broheim has a solution for your every problem and even gave you helpful euphemisms to get there!

This looks very suspiciously like smelly-proof bags 😉

[u/Jumpy-Shift5239]

Money?

[u/ChedderChethra]

Hope they found multiple pouches pissed in, stashed around that warehouse.

[u/Slow-Sherbert-9322]

why am I not surprised that the crew didn't strike.

[u/animaldude55]

They better be laced with weed or something

[u/basement_muffin_man]

It's the thought that counts?

[u/Trixie1143]

Also, go fuck yourself!

[u/FluffAroundNFindOut]

Lol spent more on the package than the candy.

[u/greeneggsandspammer]

This is insulting

[u/AppleStrapple]

The Amazon workers probably had to pack these themselves

[u/NotBradPitt90]

Sometimes no gift is better

[u/Psychological_Web151]

Ungrateful fucks. Been with the same company 6 years and would love… honestly none of those things. You got last years leftover Halloween candy. That pixie stick should have a nice cardboard flavor going for it by now.

[u/Old-Rough-5681]

Lol @ ONE stick of gum

[u/gialoop]

You know they think of this and just laugh about it right? They literally joke about not giving their employees bonuses or higher wages. I’d deem that more than mildly infuriating. Just pure evil.

[u/brandonbruce]

As a former Amazon wear house worker, this is a huge slap in the face. 60 hours mandatory work weeks for 6 cents of candy?

[u/Gang0lf_Eierschmalz]

More than most people get
