Can you imagine a Warehouse that size going up in flames...some sight I would imagine !!!!

[Kizzy]

You'd need a gps in that maze.. you could get lost and not be seen for days!

On BBC1HD and BBC1 now


The worker has a set number of seconds
to get the products

[Verbal]

They need to stop moaning and just get my ****ing stuff

[Kyle]

No wonder my CDs regularly come smashed to ******* for 33 seconds I'd be lobbing them all over the place.

[jackc1806]

It's not as bad as they made out

[DDRickyDD]

The staff should be thanking Amazon. Not only have they been given a good job, but they are also getting exercise in work time. They won't have to pay for a gym membership or walk/run in their own time.

Walking 11 miles every day is very healthy.

I watched this last night. Sounds like the job from hell to be honest. :shocked:

[T*]

Wouldn't be worried as Apparently they get good pay and benefits, don't know for sure tho
