Help Wanted: Amazon Picker/Packer. Sturdy Sneakers a Must.
EW.com’s Popwatch picked up an item from Huffington Post linking to a job posting for holiday workers at an Amazon.com warehouse. Such jobs are known as picking and packing – that is, when a customer order comes in, you must proceed to the sector where that book is shelved, remove and prepare it for shipment.
Given the acres and acres of Amazon fulfillment centers (this one’s in Kansas) and the volume of orders, much of the task is automated, you may be sure. Nevertheless, according to EW.com, “You have to be able to walk the equivalent of 10 to 15 miles a day. A day!”
How about a sled with eight tiny reindeer?
