If this isn't a sign for Amazon workers that their contribution is undervalued even at their current compensation, I don't know what is. For fucks sake, unionize and become millionaires!

Cutting to profitability. A tired and true way to make the books look good.

All the news today about them reminded me to cancel my prime membership. Thanks, Barbara Streisand!
23I always sign up for the free Prime trials just so I can get the satisfaction of cancelling.
20How often does that happen? What's the duration?
4I was mostly being facetious, I try not to use Amazon. My wife does off and on and has used a free trial 3-4 times a year.
The trials are 30 days (in the US) and years ago, 4-5, I would just use a throwaway email and do a new trial every 30 days to keep Prime. Not sure if they guard against that at all now or not.

But you know their product is going to go to shit in a few quarters, so be sure to sell high.
16And today I cancelled my prime membership and it feels great
11TLDR: Amazon is a cunt
9If you stop putting fuel in your car, the first few miles are very cheap i must say....
8Almost all of it is AWS. Which has a what, a 30% margin? Your money at work.
8That's generally how the economy works, unless you're in a recession...
6i mean yeah duh. that doesn't mean it's right or good to do mass layoffs
5Money for me, but not for thee
5Haven't ordered anything from their site for years and never felt better
3Does that mean that massive layoffs work?
3Nobody works after massive layoffs :)
