Amazon's latest worker perk: Imagination Oh, the places you can go In a move that's sure to have employees jumping for joy (in their heads, at least), Amazon has introduced a revolutionary new workplace initiative: daydreaming. A worker in one of Amazon's fulfilment centres sent 404 Media a photo they took of a screen imploring them to try "savouring" the idea of something that makes them happy -- as in, not being at work, surrounded by robots and packages. That's right, folks. Why bother improving working conditions when you can offer a free trip to la-la land instead? Amazon's fulfilment centres are now doubling as zen gardens where workers can "savour" the sweet taste of escapism. The instructions are simple: close your eyes, think happy thoughts, and pretend you're anywhere but working for Amazon. The best part is that the management has presented this sage advice in a design so basic that it'll look like something I draw using PowerPoint. There's a bunch of white space and a stock illustration of a faceless person in an Amazon vest. An anthropomorphic stack of Amazon packages with wheels and arms is urging him on. https://fudzilla.com/news/58640-amaz...rk-imagination |
