Amazon is consolidating its grocery business after a rough couple of years for its physical retail stores. The company told Marketplace in a statement it’s eliminating “a very small number” of jobs across teams working on Amazon Go convenience stores and Amazon Fresh grocery stores.
Fuck amazon and fuck whole foods, their subsidiary.
Advanced tech? What advanced tech? People watching you on cameras? The highest rate of wake word false positives? Something else I’m too dumb to understand?
Are these the same “completely unattended” Amazon locations, which turned out to have thousands of what essentially were middle-eastern slaves operating the shops remotely?
I thought they were Southeast Asian, or maybe I’m recalling incorrectly.
I think the operative word is “slaves”.
You gotta label the slaves correctly, it’s in very poor taste to not do so.
