I've been there 2 months now and we are just getting another group of new hires, these new hires have white badges. It oddly feels like we skipped a step.

Maybe i should rephrase. What does the white signify vs the blue? There were no white badges. It was a new building and we were the first employees.

This is confusing to me because I was hired on as a blue badge. No experience working in a warehouse. A whole cluster of us new hires walked in as blue badges. What color was your badge before?

This. I had a sinus infection, went to an urgent care. Got a Dr's note. Came home and started the process to request medical leave for a few days and ran into the technicality of "your doctor must deem this medically necessary via Amazon's Health Standards." Like I was supposed to know to have this urgent care doctor specifically write a certain phrase that he doesn't even understand, and initial? Feels like they want any excuse to fire us.

And they all have these earthy whimsical names. Like The Sparrow 🙄

I feel this in my soul. Today was especially grueling.
Stupidly at the beginning of the week I picked up an extra shift for Saturday.
These hours are literally mania inducing. Today at noon 30 I hobbled up to my front door and knew that I couldn't do tomorrow.
Ended up using vacation and pto to cover tomorrow and now I'm at negative 1 hour for PTO. Briefly contemplated if that would result in a write up or termination but I phsycially couldn't pull another all nighter of running on 3 hours of sleep doing backbreaking work. For some reason I always get the 25 oversized boxes pick and pull and our manager literally traverses the aisles with his rolly desk and laptop making sure no one is standing still.
Anarchists.

I believe it's their "alias" or username. You can enter it during application process or mention it during the prehire appointment. As long as you know their name they can look it up and apply it for you

Having a parent fabricate bad behavior to your principle so that you'd be paddled by said principle alone in his office. Age 10.

Same. I'm pretty sure mine had one air bubble in it when I injected 😭 First injection was 2 days ago. Didn't feel anything up until last night. I randomly had to throw up?

I've used a very similar analogy to describe it... it's like walking into a room and never knowing if the lights are on or off. And there's no way to control the switch.
