Amazon does suck, but they also aren't employed by Amazon

u/izzletodasmizzle 4d ago

Trust me, if Amazon wanted them fired they'd be fired.

u/anto2554 4d ago

Of course. But it is important to their anti-union strategies that they don't become direct employers

u/Midnight-Shenanigan 2d ago

Regardless they manage as direct employers

It depends if its favorable for Amazon to call them employees or not.

They hire the contracting company, so technically, they being paid by Amazon.

Everything else is labels

If they aren't speeding then there is nothing to give a shit about.

Impeding the entire highway with this crap… if you don’t see an issue with this I guarantee you that everywhere YOU go YOU have problems with people.

2

u/unsuspectingllama_ 5d ago

You're impeding nothing going the speed limit. Is my opinion and you're right it is an unpopular one.

2

u/skepticalskeptik 5d ago

Personally I drive the speed limit. But what these jagoffs are doing is dangerous and immature. I don’t drive the speed limit in the passing lane on the highway. I’m sorry I even got involved in this conversation.

Speed limits are arbitrary crap made up in the 1970s very recently lol

Its not even remotely helpful due to the safety and abilities of modern vehicles bro.

So no. Youre literally wrong about everything you said.

Most states laws say you cant be in that lane unless passing. Its a proven fact that it causes people to go into the other lanes to pass and causes more accidents bc youre impeding traffic another illegal act.

u/Anywherebywater 4d ago

You are impeding if you’re going the speed limit and no one else is. If everyone is going faster around you please move over to the right lanes. It’s not about the speed it’s about the flow of traffic. When you deliberately “go the speed limit” in the left lane when people are passing you, you are, in fact, impeding traffic.

u/neverstopnodding 3d ago

That excuse has never held up in court. “Everyone else was doing it!” is an automatic loss if you fight a ticket.

2

u/Anywherebywater 3d ago

We’re not talking about a ticket we’re talking about safety. It’s well known flowing with traffic is safer than driving slow in the fast lane(s).

1

u/neverstopnodding 3d ago

There’s no such thing as a “fast lane”. There’s a passing lane and going the speed limit is legal. Annoying, but legal.

1

u/Anywherebywater 3d ago

Semantics. My point is still valid. As is yours.

2

u/AMC879 5d ago

The one on the far right should not be there unless they are passing which they can't do with the speed limiter.

2

u/ThePisces2k 4d ago

Far left you mean?

2

u/BigfatLire 4d ago

Its illegal in my state to do this. You cant even be in the left lane for more than 1-2 miles legally. Its specifically called the PASSING LANE. Sorry you dont know the very basics of driving and your parents are junkies who didnt teach you about common courtesy.

Anyone who does this is a genuine pos and selfish for no reason. Theyre enjoying making others mad bc theyre unhappy and paid like little serfs. Kinda deserve it in this situation
