    @AmazonHelp My question to you is rather than this round the bush game, why Amazon cannot keep a small button in the product order page to speak to a 'Human CS' in case of issues ??

    @TheGeneral_0 At least you know how to fix it. That puts you in the top1%. A new Fluidmaster is around $10. A plumber will charge the other 99% $300 for that repair. I would say you win. Otherwise check Amazon. It blows me away with obscure stuff they have

    The answer was not helpfull. How are you applying £20 to my account when kindle cost £100? It is Amazon's problem and not customer's. I had a kindle that was in full work8ng order and it stopped because Amazon cannot send updates. Now my kindle doesn't work. @AmazonHelp

    @amazon @awscloud @nvidia Having trouble My account was flagged for suspicious activity. 3 fraud charges on credit card. Rep told me charges would be reversed. He told me to cancel credit card & Amazon account. Now I'm stuck with hundreds of dollars in fraud charges. I'm a senior.

    "my company... could use your business" @TheQuartering has flipped back to the pity me method of pushing his coffee... He is also retcon'ing his entire Walmart story... Walmart processing won't be done until Sept 15th.... then sometime in October.... the coffee has always had "Walmart SKUs" A chatter complains about a customer support issue.... Jer tells them to contact amazon. So much for Jer doing all the customer support.... He's not going to launch Walmart until he has a full collection there.....

    @rcolvile We should knock down at least a quarter of our retail spaces, then invest in making what's left destination zones that offer something Amazon and Tesco can't, whether that's food, bars, artisan, high end, thrift, services etc depends on the location and local population.

    @amazonIN How is this acceptable service? What I want is a simple answer: why is this order facing repeated delivery issues question mark is there an actual logistical problem or it is simply a failure of Amazon delivery service? Nobody seems able to provide a definite answer @amazonIN

    @kampungkreepy Amazon KDP cancelled my entire account just because of 2 words in a title of a book which went through there *rigorous copyright checks* and then blamed me for it. The 2 words in question are in other fantasy book titles being sold to this day by other authors with no issues!

    Really starting to concentrate down - not selling any positions but have a lot of conviction in $NVDA and $AMZN up to 2028 so will be adding mostly to them over other companies - DCAing them I think both are great businesses amzn currently at a fair price Nvidia at a cheap price. If Amazon ever drops to $200 it is a steal for me

    @chrismunns I’m always surprised at how poorly the initial qualification off of LinkedIn is. Not just Amazon, almost everyone’s. If Amazon did want to try to recruit me, there are 8 S-Team members (including Andy) who know me well. Two since the 20th Century. One used to work for me. Numerous other VPs know me. They might also notice I’m connected to several recruiters at Amazon. Indeed one of whom, if they are recruiting me for an appropriate position, is likely their manager. Many of these people have my cell phone number and/or my personal email address. A cold call from an unknown Amazon recruiter is the least likely channel to successfully get me interested in returning. Yet I’ve gotten them. The problem at Amazon, at least for broad (vs specialty) recruiting, is the split they created between “sourcers” and recruiters, assuming they still have that split. The sourcer is volume focused, generating a pool of potential candidates for a position. They don’t go that deep. Then those candidates are handed off to a recruiter. The recruiter is the one who would look deeply at a past position at Amazon, see the connections, and reach out to one or more of those still at Amazon to ask about you. I think you are dealing with a sourcer. Your previous level at AWS is completely unclear from your LinkedIn entry. You could have been an L5 doing those things as you don’t use standard Amazon titles; the words “Director”, “Principal”, or “Senior” don’t appear. I don’t recall if a sourcer can even look at history for past employees. Your role descriptions suggest you could do a great job as a TAM, but I scratch my head wondering how they got from “qualified” to “would have any desire to do that job at this point in your career”. Yeah, I could be a TAM too and that almost happened…in 1977.

    @NealjanNealjan @SparkysTech They are random on Amazon, 20 U.S. dollars to 100 U.S. dollars. So that could work. Other than that, I used to get my film from a flea market. It closed down during covid.

    i keep thinking about how payments will work if agentic commerce becomes the norm. we spent the last 10-15 years making payment credentials persistent and invisible. agentic commerce may be taking us in a different direction. tokenization at the psp level, and more recently at the network level, was a big part of making one-click checkout possible and setting the standard for payments ux. think uber, amazon, etc. payment credentials basically disappear into the background. you’d expect agentic commerce to build on the same foundation. and some solutions do. but an interesting part of the first wave is the use of transaction-specific credentials, from single-use cards to tokens scoped to a specific purchase, even when there’s a persistent payment credential underneath. there are good reasons for this. these instruments give agents tighter spending controls and limit the exposure of the underlying payment credential, but they also come with tradeoffs. persistent payment credentials have historically been one of the signals merchants use to recognize shoppers over time. that matters for loyalty, risk management and personalization. transaction-specific credentials can remove some of that continuity at the payment layer. the same person can show up looking like a new customer every time, which means identity and other signals may need to be passed in different ways. from a merchant’s perspective, that's a big deal. i’ve been playing around with a lot of the solutions being built. in more than a few flows, the agent pays fine and from what i can tell the merchant still has almost nothing reusable on the other side. i’m very bullish on agentic commerce. at the current pace, i think we’ll soon look at checkout forms the same way we look at fax machines today. but what replaces them will come down to how much control over data and the customer relationship merchants want or need to keep. my sense is they’ll give up more of it than they expect.

    @flemingscheetos @amazon Had the same problem before when they sent me a completely different product than I had ordered. I followed their "easy" return process and then got denied a refund because I returned a different item than the one I ordered. That's exactly why I tried to talk to a person this time

    Amazon has deployed over 1 million robots. It employs 1,576,000 people, per its latest 10-K. In 2021 Amazon employed 1,608,000. Four years later revenue is up 53% to $717 billion, headcount is down 32,000, and the robot fleet crossed a million. That fleet started with a single robot type in 2012. At this slope, robots outnumber Amazon's human workforce within a few years. Amazon wrote the operations playbook every company studies. When the robots pass the humans there, how long before your employer runs the same math?

    9. The Amazon Leadership Principles Resume Aligner "You are a senior recruiter at Amazon who evaluates every resume against Amazon's 16 Leadership Principles — because at Amazon, FAANG companies, and top tech firms, cultural alignment matters as much as technical skill, and your resume must prove both. I need my resume aligned with the specific values and culture of my target company. Align: - Company values research: identify the 5-8 core values or leadership principles my target company publicly promotes - Bullet point mapping: tag each resume achievement with the company value it demonstrates - Coverage gap scan: which company values have ZERO representation on my resume - Gap-filling bullets: write 3-5 new achievement statements from my real experience that fill the value gaps - Amazon alignment: if targeting Amazon, map to Customer Obsession, Ownership, Bias for Action, and Deliver Results - Google alignment: if targeting Google, emphasize Googleyness, intellectual humility, and collaborative problem-solving - Meta alignment: if targeting Meta, highlight Move Fast, Be Bold, and Focus on Impact - Startup alignment: emphasize scrappiness, wearing multiple hats, and building from zero to one - Consulting alignment: highlight structured thinking, client-facing impact, and leadership under ambiguity - Values-first summary: rewrite my professional summary to immediately signal cultural fit in the first 2 sentences Format as a values-aligned resume with annotations showing which company principle each bullet demonstrates. My target: [PASTE YOUR RESUME, TARGET COMPANY NAME, AND THEIR PUBLISHED VALUES OR LEADERSHIP PRINCIPLES]"
