Working for Amazon isn’t fun — and I’m not just talking about during those moments when your life is in danger.
Amazon’s many labor issues are well-documented. However, what goes *less* documented is just how these shitty working conditions look on the ground. Workers go through a lot to get you that Independence Day Blu-ray the day after you order it, ranging from working endless hours to, as everyone knows at this point, pissing in bottles.
All of this effort can lead to injury. This is especially the case during winter, when snow and ice can bring about something like this:
In the video, we can see a man admitting defeat. “Yeah, I just fucking fell. I finna quit,” the TikToker says, still lying on the ground. Given the snow and ice around him, it’s clear that he just ate it on the pavement. In the caption, he adds, “Amazon don’t pay me enough im done.”
In a follow-up video, the TikToker reveals that he hit his head during the fall and saw stars. He started recording to create some evidence of the event, resulting in the video above.
I don’t blame him for his actions. As a user put it in the comments, “People don’t understand when you fall as an adult is a lot different than falling when you’re our child, you lay there and contemplate life.”
Still, we hope the TikToker managed to leave his job and find better work — hopefully, at a job that doesn’t require him smashing his skull so someone can put off a trip to the grocery store.
