If the 1000 win, it shows a path to the other 1.4m. How do you eat an elephant?
One bite at a time.
Black Friday? Oh, you mean International Buy Nothing Day!
I once had to make an emergency Amazon purchase on Black Friday due to needing a cable that was stopping me from doing my job and I felt like an asshole. But it was that or my job.
Pretty much done with my shopping anyhow. The deals aren’t really that great.
The deals aren’t really deals. Price increases just to “lower” the price for a faux sale.
Maybe 10 years ago black Friday deals were actual deals.
For the last three or four years I’ve only seen prices go up for items I have waited on during prime day, black friday, cyber monday etc.

Thanksgiving should really be pushed to the Friday, why Lincoln went with the damned Thursday of that week I simply cannot comprehend, and why Nixon’s Monday Holiday schtick didn’t affect it too I especially don’t understand
Every store I ship from has already had sales. Shit maybe I should buy something for Christmas 😋

It’s 1000 out of about 70,000 actually. Because it’s the UK you need to look at how many people they employ in the UK. This is because Amazon UK can change its working conditions without the need for the rest of Amazon to.
Once Amazon UK have improved their working conditions, pay and benefits people in other countries may say “well, how come Amazon UK staff have better benefits than we do. Maybe we should do something about it”
In 2021, a grand total of 90 QA workers went on strike at Activision Blizzard for 6 weeks. There are 1100 people in QA across the company. Over 400 QA testers worked on Warzone at the time. During the strike, several major issues that normally would never make it to live, went live. We’re talking placeholder art, broken optics, invisible operators, and many more severe issues. The numbers might seem insignificant, but it never is.
Funny how businesses always think you’re replaceable or even irrelevant until you stop showing up to work.
