[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I’ve found this interesting, thanks! Not sure if you’d know this, but is there any benefit to the warehouse workers if customers opt for slower shipping? After I read some of the articles on warehouse conditions, I started choosing slower shipping options for anything non-urgent, on the theory that it at least can’t *hurt* for warehouse conditions. But then I wonder if any of the less-time-pressure benefits actually reach workers on the warehouse end. Do my choices just turn into more profits for Bezos because the actual shipping is cheaper?[/quote] Not to my knowledge. If something had to be out of the warehouse asap it was called a hot pick. The picker would yell hot pick and you had to get out of their way and let them cut ahead of you so they could grab the item because it was leaving that day. It could be a hot pick because it was already delayed or someone wanted it same/next day but the workload remained the same. [/quote]
