Absolutely monstrous; Amazon seemed to have even less regard for the lives of their delivery drivers than they did for their ill-fated warehouse workers. Driver was literally explaining why they believed their life was in immediate danger and dispatch’s response was still “if you come back one minute early you’re out of a job.”
Driver : How about for my own personal safety, I’m going to head back. Having alarms going off next to me and nothing but locked building around me isn’t sheltering in place. That’s wanting to turn this van into a casket. Hour left of delivery time. And if you look at the radar, the worst of the storm is going to be right on top of me in 30 minutes.
Driver : It was actual sirens.
Dispatch : “If you decided to come back, that choice is yours. But I can tell you it won’t be viewed as for your own safety. The safest practice is to stay exactly where you are. If you decide to return with your packages, it will be viewed as you refusing your route, which will ultimately end with you not having a job come tomorrow morning. The sirens are just a warning.
