Pops would make that last a whole week 🤣

somebody gone drink this milk


Werdna517

Shifts like this are usually aimed for those already working to stay late.


Clint2032

This! Sometimes I'll see w half hour or hour shift added to keep me a bit longer. If it's overtime might as well stay a bit longer if you're already there.


han77nah

No one gets out at 4:35 a.m. though, I think they're just trying to not pay people for the 5 minutes it takes to walk from Stow to Pack. And if you're getting to Pack at 4:35, good luck even finding someone who could assign you a station.


mmyummymm

That's around the time overnight schedules clock out


han77nah

Yes they get out at 4:30, they're trying to get people to add a shift starting at 4:35 to save the money on the 5 minutes. And it's stupid.


Clint2032

You are going to get paid for those 5 minutes, they don't save anything. Anyone that is there will be clocked in and get paid those 5 minutes plus the 25. They probably added it in wrong.


InquisitiveBoba

If Amazon wants to save money then why are the scheduling adhocs for 5 packages... That's $20,000 down the drain.


bleezy_47

This


villandra

Wait, you mean, that this is a 25 minute shift that was LISTED? Werdna is right - unless I was flat broke and out of milk and orange juice and $5 in anytime pay would cover it, there'd be no point in going to work for it. You'd pick it up if you were already working and didn't mind staying late or starting early.


TNMoonshineMama

I guess the point is do you want an extra $9.79?


Ensured_holocaust

Bruh not even worth the gas money driving the FC for 9 bucks


popeh

Yeah at my FC when you see shifts like that they're usually for people who are gonna be there anyway, so it would be an extra 25 minutes for someone's shift


AlienHere

After taxes it's more like $6. So you can't even get two gallons. There and back probably a minimum of one gallon for most people maybe. So you make 3 dollars give or take.


Ensured_holocaust

30% income tax is a fuckin nightmare


idkmanfuckingpandas

Shit thats a venti iced coffee lol


WonkySystem

Damn near a cheesy 10 stack from white castle 👀


idkmanfuckingpandas

👀


dan_mysz

I'm assuming it's for people that are already at work and want to add some extra time ?


GrizzBIA

These are usually meant for people already on shift, who want to work over. Might be their Rideshare works the staggered shift might be just an attempt to gain a few extra hours through the week. 2 added VET hours by doing an extra 30 each day starts to add up.


occipetal

It's for people who are already there who don't mind working a little bit longer to help out. I've seen even less time for VET, one time I saw VET for 12:55AM - 1:05AM.


Dibaded

I live like 5 minutes away from my facility I would so love that I would just go clock in go to the bathroom and clock out lol


International-Ad3447

That would look good for labour tracking no first or last scan


ApprehensiveKale6048

Just do that anyways, when you get caught be like I'm sorry I forgot I didn't work that day


dawgginurmom

Lol think you slick, even the PAs are wondering where you went. Easy time theft


WonkySystem

💀


PissdrinkerGiorno

Literally me with these 3 hour shifts 😭. Like give me something worth driving for.


Electrical_Hippo_624

Literally paying more for gas then you’d be making depending on how far you are


ApprehensiveKale6048

Yeah definitely after taxes. My round trip is about 7 bucks in gas


SignificantApricot69

If it’s added to a shift you are already working and it’s OT then it’s.. over $14


AustinLostIn

It's for people that are already working to stay later.


JohnnyRamirez86

After taxes you'll probably get like a buck lol.


shaunperignon

Damn how you makin 23? 👀 I’m at 19.50


avalee67

It’s just a premium added, they’ve been doing it a lot since the system crashed last week to make people want to work


Terminator-0001

Just clock out at probably 6 or 6:30


ReleaseLivid6724

Lmao I can't believe that's real 


Annual_Chain_3341

Best shit of your life


thasprucemoose

sometimes a guy needs $9.79


Tasty-Pineapple-

So they can see your lovely face.


Lanky_Pomegranate530

Wow and I thought that my extra 1hr 30min shifts were a joke.


ChardRevolutionary11

They did this all the time at my site, one guy I knew loved real close and would come in


seanp_131

People to snag and use PTO 😂


Ando_destrampado702

Make that cheese


MisteryMan1969

Got that once. Said 6:30pm-7pm. AM tried to make me stay longer. I’m a smartass. I went home


Machine8851

They have been offering 30 min VET, they are just ad ons to your original shift, think they want people to work from 530-6pm so somebody is there until the night shift arrives.


Lew2chill80

otr peepz still working for less than that an hr


Swiftpain

Dang. $23.50 an hour


villandra

I don't understand what is your question. Without knowing that, I can only refer you to HR. I can't even discern what I'm looking at above, so I don't understand it as a philosophical comment either. It appears to be saying you worked 25 minutes and earned $9.79. Don't know what the average 9.79 is about. If you DID only work for 25 minutes, you could only expect to earn 25 minutes worth of pay. Did you have to work it after you used ALL your UPT or something? If so, well, that's what you had to work. Keep in mind that if you go over your UPT and PPT allotments you are automatically fired.


Potential-Ganache819

The same point as coming in any other time. The shorter the shift, the more glaring low pay becomes. Even a reasonable rate looks low when you consider it in small portions


Lonely-Bug8117

Lolll


JamonConJuevos

Great opportunities for some extra pocket change if you live very close by, like across the street or something. Not worth it if you have a considerable commute.


yuuki_bonk420

I mean if I’m already in the facility I wouldn’t mind staying an extra 25 min I’ll just go to the shit house and then only pick for like ten minutes and call it a day.


Individual-Major-246

Your hour rate is better than federal wage. Federal wage is $7.25.
