  @amznsellerhelp @AmazonHelp @amazon The order was not picked up yet again. It was dropped at the hub today as well, but the issue continues. This repeated failure is becoming extremely frustrating

  @ZOrtiz9919 Have been doing Amazon Flex for years. Picking your hours is great. Every once in a while, they'll try not to pay you for a block you take & show up for but Amz has an internal issue & we get sent home. They did it to me again even though the c.s. person assured me I'd be paid 🤬

  Gave $40 to @amazon to help protect my health during a scheduled power outage. They dropped the ball, & now I get to pay $140+ to fix their issue, or $1000000 for the ER trip. Thanks for putting my health at risk.... without proper notification or a heads up. 🙄💀 <-- me soon...

  Funny, instead of @amazon dealing with the problems of their "delivery drivers" deliberately and carelessly destroying packages we pay for and dealing with it properly so it doesn't happen again anywhere in the world...this is their solution.

  @AmazonHelp Ronda, this would not be happening if Amazon and KDP were resolving my issue. Since publishing my book I have had a recurrent problem that has not been resolved after several weeks.

  A poisonous plant got a FSSAI licence number, got packed in a food-grade pouch, sat in a warehouse, and went up on three of the biggest grocery platforms in the country as something you could add to your cart. The story here is just so crazy. Datura grows wild across India. Most of us have walked past it. It has a place in Shiva worship, which is why it gets sold in the first place. But the plant contains three tropane alkaloids, atropine, hyoscyamine and scopolamine. If you eat it, symptoms start within about half an hour to an hour. Pupils blow open, mouth goes bone dry, heart races, and then confusion, agitation and hallucinations set in. Severe cases go to seizures, coma and death. The effects last a day or two and sometimes longer. The part that makes datura genuinely dangerous is that its strength swings wildly. Toxin levels can vary about five times from plant to plant depending on the age of the plant, the soil it grew in and that season's weather. There is no safe dose because there is no consistent dose. Two identical looking fruits can behave completely differently. Now, the Karnataka's food safety department found datura fruits and seeds listed as food on e-commerce platforms. Packets in warehouses carrying FSSAI licence or registration numbers, being offered for sale online. Representatives of the three companies appeared before the authority. Amazon submitted no response. Instamart asked for more time to produce documents. BigBasket said it had stopped selling and would fix the labelling to say "Not for human consumption" in future. The regulator called all three responses unsatisfactory and suspended the food licences until further orders. Compliance reports are required before anything gets restored. We know how this plays out when datura reaches a food chain by accident. In Uganda in 2019, a batch of fortified corn-soy relief food got contaminated with jimsonweed, which is the same plant. 293 people fell ill and five died. Investigators later found atropine and scopolamine in the samples. Now the bigger question this case actually opens. For years, marketplaces have argued they are noticeboards. A seller lists, a buyer buys, the platform just connects them. Karnataka has gone at that argument from a different direction. It did not chase the small seller. It pulled the platform's own food licence. If a listing sits on your platform under your FSSAI number, the food is yours. It is also worth noting how food safety law got written everywhere else and why we must applaud what has happened here. Bradford, England, 1858. A sweet maker sent someone to buy plaster of Paris to bulk out peppermint humbugs, a normal practice then. The druggist's assistant handed over arsenic by mistake. About twenty people died and over two hundred fell ill. Britain passed the Adulteration of Food and Drink Act in 1860 and the Sale of Food and Drugs Act in 1875, which became the foundation of modern food law. United States, 1906. Upton Sinclair published The Jungle about the Chicago meatpacking yards. Within months Congress passed the Pure Food and Drug Act and the Meat Inspection Act. United States again, 1937. A company dissolved a sulfa drug in diethylene glycol, which is essentially antifreeze, because it tasted sweet. Over a hundred people died, many of them children. There was no law at the time requiring a company to prove a product was safe before selling it. The 1938 Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act followed, and that is the law that built the modern FDA. China, 2008. Melamine was added to milk to fake higher protein readings in tests. Around 300,000 infants were affected and six died. China rewrote its entire Food Safety Law the following year. India, 1998. Mustard oil in Delhi was adulterated with argemone oil. Around sixty people died in the dropsy epidemic and thousands fell ill. India, 2013. Twenty three children died in Chhapra, Bihar, after a midday meal cooked in oil that had been stored in a used pesticide container. Almost every food safety law in history is written in the past tense. Somebody dies, the country gets angry, the rules change. Karnataka has acted here with no body count. No hospital ward, no funeral, no headline about children. Just an inspection, an order, and three licences pulled. It is rare to see this kind of enforcement and it usually gets no credit precisely because nothing happened. However, the real gap here is upstream. Somebody issued an FSSAI registration for this. Somebody's listing approval process let it through a food category. Neither of those is fixed by suspending a licence for a few weeks. The next step must be to find how this landed in food pouches, and catch hold.

  @bryanrbeal Hey so I live here in WA. Were currently dealing with the Tech bubble popping (People who worked in any job like Amazon, Microsoft, Expedia, Bungie) have gotten laid off. Those jobs inflated the housing market. Leading to houses like that beaing so expensive. Woodinville is also just a fancier side of WA. Theres a ton of houses just not starting to hit the $300-$400 range (Which is still too much but projected to go down) Source. Wife and I have been house shopping for 2 years now and the longer we wait the more were saving atm,

  Amazon $AMZN is about to find out whether drone delivery is actually a business, rather than just a very good demo. Prime Air operates from only 11 US locations today. Amazon wants that to become nearly 500 cities and towns by the end of 2026, which is a huge jump in a few months. The drones are the obvious bit, but I’m more interested in what happens to delivery costs if this starts working at scale. More than 60% of Amazon’s most frequently bought items are apparently small and light enough to go by drone. Think chargers, cosmetics, medicine, small electronics and household bits. Anything under roughly 5 lb and around shoebox size. Some deliveries can be at the customer’s house within 30 minutes. Amazon has already made hundreds of thousands of drone deliveries this year and wants to reach 500 million a year by the end of the decade. Ambitious, yes, but the reason for trying is pretty straightforward. Amazon has spent years making warehouses faster and more automated. The awkward bit is still the final journey to your house. Vans, drivers, traffic, fuel, routes, failed deliveries. It all costs money. A drone doesn’t sit in traffic and it doesn’t need to spend 20 minutes driving between two houses. Industry estimates suggest drone delivery costs could eventually get down to around $2 per parcel. I wouldn’t treat that number as gospel, but it gives you an idea why Amazon is interested. Prime members currently pay $2.99 for drone orders below $50 and nothing extra above $50. Non Prime customers pay $4.99. So if Amazon can eventually deliver some small parcels for less than it costs to send a van, this stops being a novelty very quickly. The retail business is already getting better too. North American sales rose 16% last quarter to $116.2bn, while operating income from the region increased to $9.1bn, from $7.5bn a year earlier. Across Amazon, operating income rose 43% to $27.5bn. Prime Air is obviously tiny beside those numbers for now, and there are plenty of reasons this could stumble. Noise complaints, local approvals, weather, payload limits and, above everything else, safety. One serious accident could slow the whole rollout. That’s why the next few months are worth watching. Going from 11 locations to nearly 500 cities and towns is aggressive enough that we should soon find out whether Amazon has cracked something useful here or whether drone delivery remains a niche service with good PR. Wall Street is still firmly positive on Amazon. Current consensus is a Strong Buy, with an average target around $327, roughly 25% above the recent share price. There’s no dividend, so nobody is buying Amazon for income. I also wouldn’t suddenly value the company higher because a drone can drop off someone’s AirPods in half an hour. But if Amazon eventually shifts hundreds of millions of small parcels without needing a van and driver for the final leg, that is worth paying attention to. Delivery is expensive. If Amazon can make that part cheaper, the droneswill matter a lot more.

  On April 6, 2026, a 46-year-old Amazon worker collapsed at Amazon’s PDX9 fulfillment center in Troutdale, Oregon, near Portland. A 911 caller reported that the worker appeared to be dead and had significant bleeding from his head. A CPR-trained coworker reportedly asked to help, but said a supervisor told her, “It has to be management or safety team. Please get back to work.” When she persisted, she says the supervisor told her, “Just turn around and not look. Let’s get back to work.” Multiple employees told investigators that workers continued sorting/loading packages while the emergency response was underway. However, there is an important dispute. Amazon says the viral characterization is misleading. The company says trained personnel immediately performed CPR and used a defibrillator, that the area was secured for emergency responders, and that operations were shut down shortly after EMS arrived. Amazon also said the worker died because of a pre-existing medical condition.

  🚨An Amazon driver punched a 71-year-old man in the head… from behind… over a parking spot. The old man was walking away. Still got dropped on the floor of a gas station. Concussion. Neck injuries. Felony battery and elder abuse charges. Amazon “offboarded” him. Fancy word for fired after the fact. If you’ll sucker-punch a senior over a parking space, you have "issues".
