Yeah, definitely don’t put any of those profits toward a living wage though. Make your employees trauma dump for the chance at a few extra bucks! Probably comes as an Amazon gift card, too.

Amazon is asking workers experiencing hardship to write a letter to its company mascot, Peccy, this holiday season so “some of their holiday wishes can come true”.

True Christmas spirit right there. Totally not a dystopian shit show at all.

Amazing that they can still think of new ways to demean and humiliate the workers who make their profits.

Peccy, I’ve thought about what I want long and hard…I want you to swallow a box of razor blades and drink 2 handles of cheap tequila. 🥰🧑‍🎄

And yet not one manager’s car is on fire in the parking lot.
