It is one week since a small town newspaperin pennsylvania broke open the story about how Amazon mistreats its employees (as brought to our/DKOS attention by samfish, thank you Sam.).
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY : Employees are treated like garbage. To save a few pennies on air conditioning, they have to work in 102 degree temprature in a large distribution hub. They get demerit points for fainting in exhaustion. The situation is so bad that ambulance companies stay next to the distribution center.
Amazon's Response: Crickets.
ACTIONS:
1) Please go here and write a nasty comment (no threats of violence please): http://www.amazon.com/...
2) Call on the AFL-CIO to organize a boycott which will not end until Amazon lets there workers unionize. http://www.aflcio.org/...
3) Please forward the above actions to your friends and family members.
