Looks a little shopped cuz the distance is different before the word "depressed".

Still a good fake text if so.

I do the double space thing on accident fairly regularly, so it's not a dead giveaway.

Genuinely; I wonder what happened to this person.

Did amazon/their supervisor recognize a potential crisis and give this person support, or did they just throw the book at them and fire them on the spot. I'm sure we can all guess what's more likely; but that's not guaranteed.

Whichever it was, I hope they're alright and not spiralling, or worse... Adult life is hard.

I would spend like an hour asking them about their employee mental health and if I could speak with the depressed person to ask why.

Amazon is not a company you give the benefit of the doubt.

They straight up do not allow their employees to piss.

That sudden corporate tone shift is hilarious. You can almost feel the “please remain professional” email being drafted in real time.

$54 BILLION in profit (2024) and can't let employees be alive and have physical and emotional challenges.

Fuck Amazon. imagine what we could be if companies just treated people like people instead of abusing them to be currency vacuums. This timeline sucks, greed is pure lunacy.

i've had people at bars corporate police tone me. where i live it's rampant and people talk corporate speak 24/7.

least to say I wanted to punch that person in the face, and I no longer hang out there because it's full of corpo zombie types of people who work 80 hour weeks and think 'synergize' is a verb for everyday use.

I know people who work for amazon tech.

They love it. They love the cutthroat work environment. I have a brother who used to work for a company like that, and all his jobs afterward he hated because they were 'boring' and 'not competitive' and he ended up quitting them all because he wanted everything to be blood sport. Now he is depressed and unemployed and puts all his rage into being a volunteer football coach.

They probably removed the word "fucking" there.

Yeah, I'm going to need you to do a better job as using 'Capital' letters when starting sentences and after a period or end break of a sentence. It looks rather unprofessional when you don't punctuate correctly. If you need a refresher course for how to type professionally in a casual environment, remember we're a family and we can set something up for you to assist you in the future.

They would make more money long term by not being pieces of shit, they just can't help but let greed get in the way of money. It's a mental illness at that level.

Oh, you are depressed? Let's add jobless on top of it. If Amazon would have done the right thing (lol) they would have mentioned it in the post.
