  Miami Dolphins Flag Guy (@clay8269) reported 2 minutes ago

  @branderson7474 @AdamSandler I watched so many people retire from the miliary buy a brand new flag fold it place it in their shadow box. I want my flag to have a story not some brand new flag straight from Amazon. The value is my flag will have a story I can pass down.

  @SOOPLLC My advice after routing for many, many decades and not having a traditional publisher: there are two routes when it comes to publishing. You don't necessarily have to make them mutually exclusive but you either get published by a publisher in some scenario or you self-publish. There are different versions of each one. My recommendation is to decide upfront what you want to do, which route you want to pursue. Again you can do both but you've got to put time into whichever one you decide to do because if you're going to do traditional publishing then it requires a different approach for that. You need to: - draft your book - write your books - do a rough draft - write them - get it to a final draft - get better readers - get it in front of editors - get it in front of companies That means sending out manuscripts to many publishers and waiting forever. The alternative is self-publishing. I struggled with this for a long time. I didn't want to spend six years of my life writing and just dumping my manuscripts out to different publishers, hoping someone grabbed it. What I did is I just said, "You know what? I'm on a right for the passion of writing and I make money off of it. Don't get me wrong but that's not the reason why I do it." I don't make a whole lot off my writing right now and I may never find with that but I finally had to decide that my passion is writing, not publishing. What I started doing is I'll write the books. I believe in the snapshot theory so I don't ever try to make my work perfect but I make it as perfect as I can at that point in my development. I'll write a book, I'll get it edited, and I'll normally go through about three drafts over time. I'll take breaks from it. After the rough draft, when I feel like it's ready to publish, I put it on Amazon KDP, drop it into Select, and leave it. I'll move on to another book. I try not to obsess over it. Some of them grow, some of them don't. Some of them, months down the road, will finally get some traction and I'm not a big-name famous author by any means of the stretch. I have very few readers in fact but I've made some money off of it and I've got some growth. I've had quite a number of reads and some of my stuff takes off, some of it doesn't, but it's just the fact that I have a passion for writing. My recommendation for an aspiring author is to decide which route you want to take and gear up to pursue that route with vigor because if you get consistent and keep pushing, you never know what will happen.

  @skinroja203 American business ceases immediately and zero imports come in. Walmart, Amazon, Costco shut down. No gasoline, jet fuel or kerosene. That means no trucks to deliver goods to the Canadian stores. All food is gone from the stores within three days while everything warehoused ruins on shelves. The major concern would be how are families going to be fed. A Canadian who sees his starving children while also dealing with other Canadians looting HIS resources that he might have. It’s bad. Really bad. Again, I hope it never happens because it would be complete and total devastation. That’s the power of the US war machine and economy. Factor in we don’t have to take it to the other side of the world but is right next door makes it even easier and more terrible

  Finding @amazon customer service on the site to get help with a real issue is like finding gold. On an astroid. In deep space. In another dimension. 🤨 It's almost like they hide it to avoid their customers. #amazon

  @akafaceUS A lot of malls died long before Amazon became a thing, due to security challenges & ridiculously high overhead costs, among other problems.

  Someone gotta shut down Amazon MGM Studios, because that's two game related shows under them that have had a star suffer a major injury-

  @AmazonHelp 12 hours? That's terrible customer service. Do better. I'm done being a customer

  @akafaceUS Here was the problem with mall design. They are massive. You park on one side at an anchor store for instance. It’s January so you and your kids all have coats on. You walk into the mall and there are no buggies/carts. You walk throughout that mall supposedly buying at many stores with only two hands that are already taken up with coats kids snacks drinks… are you gonna walk back to your car to drop off your packages midway through and then go back into the mall and walk another mile to get to another store to carry bags back? That was the reality of malls. And we did it because there were no other options, they were beautiful, and felt vibrant … so we put up with the . drawbacks. However, many got old, became a place that needed more and more security, and the downside design issues are fixed with online shopping . Amazon: you’re exhausted from a busy day you put the kids to bed. You relax on the couch buy everything you need and it’s at your door when you get home from work the next day. No-brainer. My vote would have been to fix malls. Online shopping should’ve been taxed and physical stores should have been tax free to encourage people to get off the couch, walk! and actually see the products that they are buying, and have a social day shopping with their family.

  1 Customer research. Involves digging through reviews i.e. Trustpilot, Amazon to identify recurring patterns, avatars, benefits, objections and their frequencies. This is the most crucial step. You get this step wrong & you will flush all the ad budget down the ******* toilet

  "Amazon is a machine. The machine might be broken, and this anecdote is a signal. It's a squeak in the machine - and that's not how the machine is designed to work." Listening to this clip from @ShaanVP on @myfirstmilpod, I think this idea from @JeffBezos will be even more important in the age of agents doing the work.

  @AmazonHelp The problem has not been resolved, no one has called me back and i am being sent around in circles. I am shocked by how bad the customer service is and hope this reached a wider audience.

  @ScullySherSpock @HailMaryLogs There has been differing interpretations of what was said. Amazon is likely waiting out until sales of the dvd release die down and then release the 4 hour directors cut…got milk that consumer money.

  @thsottiaux ChatGPT Work took over a live Amazon Seller Support chat over $82.50, then stopped monitoring despite explicit instructions. The chat expired. A fresh Work browser now blocks Seller Central, with no ETA or workaround. It caused the failure, then removed the way to fix

  @PlumbNick I also get these kind of harassing phone calls from recruiters claiming to work with Amazon who don't seem to understand that as a prior L7 that asking me to boomerang comes with terms and conditions that require they fix the **** that let made me want to leave and not accept L8.
