Chris Smalls is a hero, an amazing person. Haven’t shopped at amazon since 2016, never whole foods. #demexit
https://youtu.be/EsNYaHekI5M & https://youtu.be/-3chVxRfeVA THIS IS YOUR SO CALLED "HERO", MR. SMALLS, WHO RESPECTS WOMEN & CARE FOR HIS COMMUNITY BY PUTTING HIS CAREER ON THE LINE MAKING A STAND AGAINST AMAZON… RIGHT CHRIS???
To call this a revolution is a bit of a stretch imo. If you think about it from a business stand point, you can't just suspend operations. The world needs supply chain and it seems like businesses are doing the best they can considering the circumstances. I would say if you don't want the risk of being infected, find a different field to work in.
I support you bro
so Called rich
If nobody was willing to do these crap jobs the big corporations offer crap pay, bad conditions, etc then they would be forced to pay people properly. If I stuck a knife in my eye I would be blamed for it but if I pick a crap job people blame the company offering it? IMO these people bring it on themselves.
They take a job they know is crap pay and crap conditions and expect it to be different, or they take a job right out of high school and are entitled and think they deserve as much money as someone who spend thousands of dollars and years getting a college/university degree to do.
No reason to protect against a hoax. Regular flu virus get over it.
Excellent interview, thank you.
When they attack Chris Smalls, they attack me too. Only through unbreakable solidarity will we find happiness.
I am onboard to boycott Amazon. What is an alternative for getting supplies. I am very rural.
I cancelled my Amazon prime, and boycotting them. That is the least we can do. Share this video keep this movement going or nothing will ever change.

God loves the worker.
U.S. Postal Service workers should be included in this fight since their jobs are also on shaky ground.
P.S. What Took You?
The Awakening finally started. since 2014 my first work in amazon months later me and few when after work talk and share the things of what we find concerning work related procedures. i voiceout my concern am vocal when something are not right.
but majority of workers(associates) starts to pick on me and some considered me as a rat, asshole, stupid etc except from the few who felt same way as i do. these are a time that Amazon considered as getting people work and savior. must be protected..
