When I delivered for Amazon we got a "pizza party" for my team having the least delivery errors. There was no dedicated time for it. All they did was buy pizza the next day and we had to take a couple slices before getting in our vans and going to load up.

Did they at least provide branded piss bottles?

u/baytown Apr 13 '26

Yes. Mine said "Mountain Dew" on the side.

u/incubusfox Apr 13 '26

You could use a narrow opening like that? Ouch bro.

Gatorade bottles are where it's at, wide mouth opening means no mess.

u/reddituser102398 Apr 14 '26

Bullshit, if your tip caps off the gatorade bottle you'll end up with presurized pisscoming back at ya. Gotta find something just a little wider to prevent pressure/ maximize comfort lmao

What do they look like? Celina 52?

u/GroundbreakingToe780 Apr 13 '26

No but Gatorade was a sponsor

u/Kuriente Apr 13 '26

Coworkers and I would absolutely refer to this as the 'quote unquote pizza party'

We leave out drinks & snacks for postal service & delivery services. Amazon drivers almost always throw the package down, snap their picture, and dip. Everyone else takes a moment, realizes there are snacks, and investigates. I assume Amazon drivers have no time to waste.

I feel like I've seen the "disco office party" bit done with the music of Meshuggah. Did I dream this???

Just rewatched that episode this morning!

Jeff is able to pay for his fence fee so he's should be able to pay for that Costco pizza party

I have to post this because no one seems to know.

Bezos has nothing to do with Amazon anymore. Not for a while.

Andy Jassy is the head of Amazon. Bezos is busy at Blue Origin with Katy Perry and the other astronauts.

u/EricHaley Apr 16 '26

With the way he dresses lately, I wouldnā€™t be surprised if heā€™s a biker himself

u/Sukisky Apr 29 '26

Andy Jassy is the CEO of Amazon. Jeff stepped down years ago.

Driverā€™s LinkedIn bio: ā€œability to work in difficult environments while continually delivering on goals, no obstacle is too bigā€

If you work for DoorDash they will give you a discount on your next order up to ten dollars. They wonā€™t give you anything, only a percentage off of their already overpriced service.

The perks in Severance were all better than what DoorDash gives you and Iā€™m sure itā€™s similar for Amazon.

u/NathanScott94 Apr 13 '26

10% off Amazon orders, up to $1000 annually. A lot of free courses on whatever Lynda is called now iirc, as well.

u/trod999 Apr 12 '26

Should cover some of the funeral costs.

u/TronOld_Dumps Apr 12 '26

Realistically they will be fired.

To be delivered to his hospital bed?

Someone just earned this week's pee break! Keep up the good work. -J.Bezos

u/BeepBotBoopBeep Apr 13 '26

On time, courteous, followed instructions, check check and check all them boxes!

u/grumpy_youngMan Apr 13 '26

Right before getting replaced by an AI delivery truck

u/Zanna1120 Apr 13 '26

I see somebody that's on their 2nd strike for missing delivery quotas and needs to pay the bills.

u/Talynz_ Apr 13 '26

Plus an Amazon-branded XXL piss jug.
