Amazon doesn't 'employ' drivers, but hired firms to prevent them from unionizing
I'm always amazed at the stark differences between UPS drivers, and Amazon drivers.<p>UPS trucks are always clean. They follow the rules of the road. The drivers wear neat uniforms, they walk on the sidewalks, they're polite, they're just professionals held to a higher standard.<p>Then there are Amazon drivers. They park blocking half the road, music blasting, the vans usually look like they haven't been washed in a month, most of the time it's not even an Amazon marked van, it's just some generic white rental. The drivers often don't have Amazon clothing, maybe just a hi-viz vest, they walk through your grass and plants, lazily toss a package on the porch and walk away.<p>Reminds me of fast food employee who simply hands your meal out the window, no greeting, no thank you, no smile...
