Day in the life of an AMAZON WAREHOUSE PICKER

Thank you for your hard work everyday. Also thanks for sharing for those who may want this job in the future.

Looks like inside an Imperial Storehouse! Outsiders are Not Allowed Inside these Premises , so it is a real treat to be able to see how an Amazon warehouse looks like in the inside! Thank You So Much for sharing! 🌍

Working at Amazon is a thrill a minute. Everyone gets the one minute late "coaching". When you're new you have to pretend to care, after a few months you just say whatever. Fire me. The trifling management is the worst part of the job. The job is not cool at all in any way, but you get used to it and don't expect it to be. Never get used to poor leadership demotivating you and making it worse.

[@homewithdestiny]

Wow! I did not know that. I very much agree with you, Gary. Sounds like you had a very similar experience as me. Hope you're in a better position now. Thanks for the comment!

[@garybeltrand5802]

Yep, they'll try to get on you about any dumb little thing, even things that aren't your fault. TOT, "low" rate. Stuff happens that hurts your numbers that you have no control of. To be fair, it's horribly boring work and a lot of people there will screw around too much, work sloppy, and waste time if they didn't watch them like that. If you're not one of those people and work hard your whole shift, they should respect that and just leave you alone. The job is depressing enough as is. Quit a couple years ago. Safe to say, no regrets.

I recently tried picking. I grew to hate it as I was made to suffer for the incompetence of the stowers. I also once had to deal with a box glued to the pod by orange sticky stuff, something that neither I nor the process assistant had ever seen before

[@Jordan-f3k]

I enjoy it. But I'm also good at it. I pick 450-500 an hour , and that's going nonstop. It's mentally exhausting but I came from ship dock and I hated it so it's a breath of fresh air in comparison to the docks. The PA's don't bother me, probably because of the numbers I'm putting up. But I'm on flex so I can come and go as I please. I usually work like 20-25 hours a week , just enough to cover my car and rent, but they give me a shift diff for working certain hours so I get 5 more dollars an hour sometimes and I love it.

[@xoltarr424]

About the breaks, they tell us that too. You pick em, and I do ICQA. Since most of us are on the OP's, we have to leave what we're doing 10 minutes ahead of our break to find a spot AND to ensure no one will come by and steal it while on lunch.

[@luannkelly5071]

Outstanding! I just finished 10 weeks as a picker at Campbellsville SDF1. I was on Camperforce schedule of 4 ten hour shifts, 5:30pm to 4:00pm. I found it extremely challenging, yet addicting as well. I lost 25 pounds. It was old school, no robotics, pushing carts, climbing up stairs for 9 hours per night. I am starting soon at DFW7, we will see if that goes as well. Nice video!!

[@justanotherwaver9065]

Who you telling? I’ve been a hard worker my whole life but being a picker probably the only job that challenged me and took a minute to reach 300. Plus have my time under 9 seconds. And I’m picking overnight. Last night my PA challenged me to push for 400. I’m like woman I’m lucky to get 300+ based on my sleep schedule. Doing this for 12 hours straight is crazy.

This will be my 2nd job and I am 18

[@298enterprise]

They didn’t when I worked in a center during the pandemic. Plus my last night working at that same facility was a nightmare. I was working at one station and the person next to me had his music playing and his music was loud. It was so loud I couldn’t think straight. Even having those construction ear plugs in my ears didn’t help much. This kept going during the whole night. Never again. After clocking out, I gave them my badge and never went back. And if you’re wondering, it was a night shift.

[@reddawn5297]

Thank you for your service!

[@user-zc9zt2vl5s]

instead, just stop ordering so much stuff from online places. Do these people a huge favor, if you have to buy something big like such as huge bags of pet food, 24 case of soft drinks, then please drive your lazy asses to your local supermarket for crying out loud. Technology is making everyone so damn lazy. At this rate, robots will be taking over many aspects of our lives if not all.

[@lunchboxroxx]

400 units per hour is the minimum You have to keep your scan rate under 8 seconds.. which means you have 8 seconds to dig through over stuffed bins scan and move on… and god forbid you have to drink water or go to the restroom because your rate drops by 70 units in a couple minutes. Amazon isn’t made to be a career and they know it. They want a revolving door of employees..everyone is disposable.

[@bigboss-yv2nr]

don't buy into that 400 rate bullshit. This applies for anyone reading this as a picker or stower: Sign into FC games at your station and stay in the top 50% percentile and i guarantee you they'll never fuck with you about rate. 400 pick rate is literally impossible on a consistent basis unless you're working at an unrealistic pace, NOTHING goes wrong the entire shift with the pods or anything else and you get nonstop multiples and perfectly organized bins. Like i said, impossible. Seriously, don't stress. Stay in the middle of the pack and you won't have to worry. As a picker, worry more about not making errors and especially the golden rule: DON'T OVERFILL THE TOTES.

[@jaysrt21]

Did you guys also get the $2 raise that starts october 2nd? I’m 3 weeks in and currently under season position, but they said after 30 days you get a blue badge. I Think i’m going to stay since it’s $2 more plus i work overnight and it’s 60 cents more. Also friday and saturday turn into $1.25 more over night so that isn’t bad. It’s repetitive work, but keeps me paid

[@davidwebb091370]

what's your average pick rate per hour, Destiny, if i may ask? thanks!

[@homewithdestiny]

Hi! I would mostly average between 10 to 12 pick rate and maybe a 8 to 9 on a rare occasion. I found myself to be quicker in the mornings but got slower as the day progressed

[@davidwebb091370]

@@homewithdestiny thanks, Destiny! I work as a picker, too, but our pick rate is by the hour, like for example we need to pick at a rate of 300 units/items/products per hour. I mostly average at 270 items per hour and only sometimes exceed the 300 mark. My takt rate is in the 8-plus seconds although we are encouraged to do it below 8 seconds.

[@homewithdestiny]

@@davidwebb091370 Oh that's right! Sorry I got mixed up because I no longer work there anymore. I believe I would hit the required 300 units per hour, a fair amount but not always. We are taught that 9 tak time was what we should be aiming for, but I have also been told to try to get 7 tak time, which I rarely got. If I was somehow that fast, it was usually right when I start picking but would not last 😂 I got tired way too quickly. It sounds like you're doing a great job though!

I want nothing to do with that, but others will pay a fortune in time and money to do it. I may think it is stupid and boring, to me, but I understand that others enjoy it. Do I think they are stupid? Yes, I have thought and said so, but then I think of some of the things that I like, that others would think are equally stupid and boring, and check my ego.

what!! you guys get light items on your kiva floor. and you manually move your totes (or at least thats what it looks like). My FC gives us pallets stacked with a variety of items, usually medium to heavy in weight. our pods carry some light and small items, but a majority of the time the products are medium to large and quite heavy. it is incredibly draining both on my physical and mental state (and feet). also, are only allowed to put 1 item in the totes at a time before the conveyer rides them away. but honestly, if I only had to pick small and usually lighter items, I would 100% transfer to a different facility.

How do you know which item to pick up from the yellow machine that comes and how do you know which tote it has to go in?

[@homewithdestiny]

Those are great questions! I will try my best to answer in a way that makes sense. 😁 There are multiple ways to know where and what item to grab from the machine. There is a projector that shines a light directly on the cubby of where the item is located. There is a screen that shows a diagram of the machine and lights up the area of where the item is located. Each cubby is also labeled by a number, letter and color. For example "2A pink". The screen shows a picture of the item, the quantity, and the cubby location. Once you have the item, you place it into the assigned tote. The tote has a circular ring light right above that lights green. You place the item into the tote and press on the light to signify that the item is in the tote. And then the process repeats itself. A new item lights up on the screen, you grab it, scan it, then place it into the tote and press the ring light. The machine then moves away and a new one appears and you continue the process for the whole day, lol. Pretty repetitive and easy to learn overall. Of course there are exceptions and unique circumstances that pop up that might require a different step; like a missing item, damaged item, barcode that won't scan, etc.

Hi, is this facility considered a newer one? I ask because I see the robots being the items to you to pick instead of having to go walk around and do it yourself.

[@totoroutes5389]

That’s a newer warehouse that uses robot drives to carry the yellow shelves. While there isn’t any walking around as in the older warehouses the expected speed rate for these pickers is higher. 10 hours per day , 4 days in a row every week is tough. Amazon workplace is engineered for consistent maximum output and regular employee turnover, which allows to push for the highest output and prevents the formation of worker unions. Jobs are just for references and experiences and stepping stones. Always go for your dreams and goals.

[@mcdonaldssprite3884]

mine is 1h upt for every 18h worked

[@justanotherwaver9065]

@@mcdonaldssprite3884 it just depends on how long you been there. If you been there for a few months. Your time accumulates slower than someone who been there for 5 years.

[@tradergirl7067]

Great detailed video. How long you there? Do they ever make you work different shifts or more hours? I'm about to start the same shift. Also why do some show pickers on the OP machines and other show pickers using these robots? They are both called Pickers?

[@homewithdestiny]

Thank you! I worked there for almost 6 months. They don't make you work different shifts but there is mandatory overtime during PEAK season. This is usually during the holidays, so I had to work five 12 hour days. I'm not too familiar with OP machines but I do believe they are also called "pickers" as well. Hope that helps and good luck! :)

[@EarlLedden]

If I get more than 8000 steps in on a normal day I've exceeded my average ( I don't work at Amazon). Any Amazon step counters out there that keep track of their steps?

[@homewithdestiny]

I'm not quite sure how many steps exactly, since I have never personally tracked mine... but remembering how tired my feet would feel after a shift, I would say you definitely would hit over 10,000 steps a day. The warehouses are huge

[@luannkelly5071]

I worked as a picker in Campbellsville Kentucky. My steps were from. 12000 to 16000 per shift. 9 hours of walking and lifting. You WILL lose weight.

[@timsieben8234]

ive talked to people that work the ar floor and tote runners some say up to 30k to 50k a day steps unreal our warehouse is 2.6 million square feet its massive

[@KingRicoTv]

Deliver station I was doing between 22k-26k

[@Dannyvm27]

I work as an AFM and I average around 25-30k steps or 10-15 miles per day.

[@MarioRodriguez-vo3hk]

great work! on average how much do they pay per hour ?

[@eikcajurt]

After the breaks, do you go to the same station assigned to you when you first arrive?

[@homewithdestiny]

Yup, usually you do unless a manager sends a message on your screen, or directly tells you to go to a different station, for various reasons.

[@eikcajurt]

@@homewithdestiny Thank you so much, also when you arrive how do you know what you need to do?

[@homewithdestiny]

@@eikcajurt When you arrive, you go to a designated place with everyone else to do stretches. There should be a screen that shows everyone's profile pic with the station number they are assigned to for that day. Sometimes your name doesn't show up, so in that case, you go up to a manager and they will assign you one directly. Glad I could help! 🙂

[@eikcajurt]

@@homewithdestiny Thank you very much!

[@DL-mr7rh]

What do you do if the item is broken / missing or won’t scan?

[@Patrickglover11]

There is a button for each , missing , unscanable , or damaged. For unable to scan and damaged , place item in a new tote , scan the tote and send it down.

[@darlene4745]

Are you still at this job? Thank you for sharing!

[@homewithdestiny]

Nope, I am not. Thanks for watching! 😀

[@denizbakkaloglu1990]

I worked at tesco warehouse before but I am looking for a new job. I have never worked at amazon warehouse before. Are there 5 days out of 7 and 8 hours shifts at the amazon warehouse?

[@Juliabae0]

The warehouse where I used to work had 5 hours a day 5 days a week shift. They still l upload tons of shifts weekly, but it’s in MD. Idk where you live tho, you just have to keep checking for new shifts from their website.

[@Vibes.562]

@@denizbakkaloglu1990 no they do 10 hour shifts 4 days a week. Unless your part time then you can do the 5 hour shift
