Albuquerque man accused in Amazon warehouse theft case

[jeishlynduran]

I work at an Amazon Fc and it’s literally impossible to steal. How do people think they can get away with it is beyond me..

[kayflip]

How can you even attempt to steal from Amazon? Their own stores have the technology to determine what you've picked up so that you don't even need to scan them before leaving the store. 🤣With that technology, Amazon would be the LAST place I'd attempt to steal from.

All he had to do was go to court and if you get a nice judge, you’ll probably get x-amount of community service and get it misdemeanor charge. But now he has chosen to be a felon.

[tacomuncher]

Its guys like him that make honest workers all suspects

I remember loss prevention at Amazon telling us new hires that they will let you steal a few times just to build a case against you large enough for you to go to jail.

[PentaRaus]

If you're gonna steal do it as a bank or a politician. It seems to go well.

😂
Got blasted by Amazon, good luck getting a job.

[visoroverwatch]

Of course he wasnt going to show up for court.

I hurt my wrist once working at Amazon. When I went to report it, they literally showed me video footage of three different angles of me working on the line to get the exact moment I hurt myself to make sure I wasn’t trying to finesse them out of workers comp. I learned then that they had cameras everywhere.

Jeez, he's actually making an honest living but he just couldn't resist.

[moneyinthemakin]

What he should have done was open a small regional bank, name it something cool like Valley of Silicone Bank, then place risky bets in bonds, lose all the money and then get the government to bail you out.

[terrydawley]

Of course they didn't take him to jail and of course he didn't return when he was supposed to this is why these people are committed so many crimes

[MrTophatreaper]

I work at amazon, and I feel like ima be accused of stealing for just putting my stuff away in my bag lol

[HerDyingVoice]

"Is he aware that he's being filmed?" As an Amazon employee, I'll answer this with detail. He not only knows he's being recorded, He knows there's over 100 cameras in there, he obviously knows not to steal, he knows that he can be fired for this, he knows that being fired from this LITERALLY means he can never work in an Amazon warehouse(or any other Amazon branded company)again. And yes you read that last part right, every Amazon employee in the world knows, If you get fired for stealing, you'll never be allowed to work anywhere Amazon or Amazon owned EVER again. You're completely banned from applying for life, even if you steal a phone case.

I work at Amazon and the only place people get away with stealing is shipdock. People in the trailers have no cameras on them, and the area managers don't have a clear view of the workers unless they get close. People working in the trailers can easily steal small items they can hide in their pockets (usually airpods), they can also get away with listening to music and being on their phone, some people even hit their vape or wax pen 😅. There also is no rate, you just need to clear the conveyor belt and make sure the light doesn't turn red. Because of all these factors, it's opens up the doors for other things. My coworker literally got head in the trailer, it's crazy, Amazon is pretty much like a highschool for adults lmao.

[SuperKamiGuru]

I used to do that same job along with other things at Amazon. It is impossible to get away with anything because of the thousands of cameras everywhere. If you take something, you will get caught.

[pauldavis]

There is a surveillance camera literally right next to him. How did he think he would get away with it? Some people literally have no brain.

[joeldriver-sprg]

What do they mean they didn't take him to jail?? You see, this is why crime is so bad in this country. We are way too lenient on thieves and criminals.

[thumperjdm]

Getting hired: "There are cameras, and electronic package monitoring at every step of the process."
His thoughts: "Yeah...but they won't catch ME."

[Sulfen]

I am honestly not surprised at all. Amazon goes through so many employees every day that they are running out of quality employees and hiring anyone these days. They offer them large bonuses to get hired and then set unrealistic picking rates and fire them. Some of them only stay long enough to get the bonus.
