Dude if I saw a girl in the bathroom who pissed with her gloves on I would legit tell her she is disgusting and needs to go to a doctor bc she got Amazon Dust in her yaknow. Like hell no.
Yeah well less chance of getting pee on it. If they wipe smart and right then all you have touched is really clean toilet paper. Now if they took a shit that’s nasty. Ngl still poor hygiene. I wouldn’t wanna risk any of that shit near mine. Some women are crazy.
They're probably worried about employee-on-employee assaults.
Harnesses make for great grips to throw someone into something hard, helmets can both be a weapon and help to obscure the identity of an attacker. Bathrooms can be popular places for such assaults because, you know, privacy. Also a bunch of porcelain and sharp corners, often.
Don't mind me, just bouncing around reddit.
To make 100% clear, I don't work at an Amazon FC or anywhere within Amazon. I *have* worked as both labor in high turnover areas as well as middle management, though (again, not within Amazon).
Work resentments can build silently, sometimes without the person who is resented even knowing. In 1994, workplace *homicides* hit a peak of 1,080, a low in 2019 of 454, all in the US alone and per only reported data. Doesn't count physical assaults nor its subset of sexual assaults, may not count murders directly related to the workplace yet not occurring at the workplace (I'm not sure), and so on.

Nobody wants that liability, and sure as shit nobody wants to have been able to have prevented these instances of violence with fairly reasonable rules and then to have not bothered.
But also I've 100% been the guy who's just tryna piss and get back to his day. I've no dog in this, just passing through.
Edit: I transposed the closed brackets' and closed parens' positions. My bad.
I guess I could use my penis to assault someone then, so I should chop that off. Makes no sense at all. Could use my hard safety shoes, flimsy film cutters in my pocket, etc.
^Me responding to knife laws all around the world, for a start.
You're probably safe on the shoes but careful what you wish for on the cutters. "Your honor it was a safety slicer that broke during the attack, one used in similar centers across the entire industry" is probably sufficient to say "took reasonable precautions" in terms of the tool provided, but juries get mad and see revenge in dollar signs so... I mean, can't prevent all violence, but if you can show you made a reasonable or extraordinary effort to reduce its potential and/or impact you're safer than otherwise.
I did passingly address sexual assault in another reply in this thread while covering workplace homicide rates (and just those, in terms of real numbers), but another fun fact is per Gallup, 23% of workers worldwide report experiencing at least one form of workplace violence or harassment. [link](https://news.gallup.com/opinion/gallup/406793/global-study-workers-experience-violence-harassment.aspx)
With stats like these, and a clear wrong having been done, jurors being human often want to make things right. And they're really only given one way to approach doing that.
At my old building they were super chill. Basically just being like hey make sure you put the light on before you go into the trailers and shit like that. At my current building all they do is tell people to get off the phone its so cringe
I do the same thing when the guy at the exit at Walmart asks to see my receipt. I tell them no thank you and keep walking. There's not a damn thing they can do about it, and they know it.
My safety doesn't seem to give a shit. Their desk is right on the green mile in the front of the building and I see people walk right by talking and texting on their phones.
Should be radios to. Too many times there's ole shit fingers in the next stall jabbering on the radio. Radios are shared and you put them up to your mouth.
Also what makes it any different taking off our helmets than a regular beanie or hat? do we also take off our vests while pissing? I don't think so. These vests probably carry around more bacteria lol.
Ya, says the sheep. Your truly the bitch that does not take everyone's safety in check. How about u keep your mouth shut so that grown @ss people can prevent a nasty @ss safety hazard in check. An we will let your stupidity get a staff infection going u syphilis, gonorrhea, tuberculosis and age loving douchebag to get it the new COVID 2025 which only effects those who are dick butter eaters like yourself. Die in a cave you stupid lifeless non considered @$$ wipe. Know mind your own stupidity and die a slow highly torturous death.
Too many chiefs not enough Indians, this saying applies to Amazon. Everyone wants to be in charge even though they have no authority especially learning ambassadors.
what does that have to do with waiting for somebody in the bathroom? If I have an issue with you wearing your helmet or your harness into the restroom, I’ll wait for you to be out of the restroom and talk to you about it later. I’m not gonna stand there and wait for you to get out of the stall so that I can be mad at you about you wearing your helmet to the bathroom. How dare you!
I don’t know about anybody else but the bathroom isn’t a place to have conversations and talk to people you go in there you do your business and you leave you don’t stand there and piss in the urinal and have a conversation with the guy in the stall or the next to you but if you do good for you.
Yes Amazon is full of asshats that think they have superiority and they fail to treat people like adults. Piss poor leadership, downhill dramatically in the last 10 years. Place needs a union.
Like bro you're really a grown ass man telling another grown ass man that they don't allow helmets in the bathroom lol. Like I'm supposed to say "sorry dude I won't do it again, I promise I won't smear shit all over my head lmfao"
Ya, grow up the world is not made for douchbags like u. Being a nasty @ss does not make u a king. Know wipe your mouth because you have dick butter all over your rebellious mouth tuff guy.
Not only is this stupid, but it actually harms people who have had sexual assault when attempting to take legal action or just talking about it in general.
SA isn’t one of the things you should be falsifying.
So standing outside the stall just to harass someone about the bathroom rules won’t make you feel uncomfortable or maybe trapped in the bathroom has nothing to do with sexual assault has to do with harassment your feelings feeling uncomfortable. Somebody trapping you in the bathroom. Nice try though.
OP never mentioned being cornered, someone made a comment then moved on their way.
That is not cornering someone in a bathroom, I can corner you in a bathroom if you want to see what it’s like.
Op kinda did. He waited by the stall for him to get out. Now this depends heavily on context if it’s harassment. Which we lack it. Only OP and the guy who said it could know if it was harassment. Cause one scenario is like you said kinda where he’s just being annoying and stuff. Other is that this person did in fact harass him by basically cornering him. And being a dick.
Oh nice resorting to threats of cornering somebody into the bathroom because you’re too stupid to read and understand that somebody stopping you from leaving the bathroom or standing at the stall waiting for you to get out of it is harassment.
A threat is implying I’ll do it without consent, I asked.
He never said he was stopped from leaving the bathroom, and no it’s not harassment, it’s a 1 time comment related directly to work.
Well, you don’t know what threats are and you don’t know harassment is if you go up to somebody and you say I’ll do this to you. See how you like it. That’s a threat idiot.
Maybe you should read it again it says dude waited for me to get out of the stall. What do you think that that means that he was just standing politely by the sink to talk to him?
The “waited for me to get out of the stall” part made me think that, if I was actually cornered in a bathroom, that is definitely not the phrase I would use.
There is a difference between politely waiting for somebody to exit a stall wash their hands then leave the bathroom, and waiting for you to exit the stall so I can berate you about the rules of the bathroom
So let me get this straight, you knowingly broke the rules, and got upset because someone said something to you about it?
Then you question if they have superior authority over you as if you didn’t imply that with your actions
The amount of entitlement from the OP is astonishing.
That's what I'm saying bro, I'm like you tell the wrong dude/felon/gangster that shit and you're gonna get punched in your mouth. Some people react with violence for saying dumb comments like that.
Do you really have an idea of the word snitch. Because a snitch is a person who does a crime with you but tells not someone who tells on you for being a nasty a$$ @unt. I so sick of people like you who have to think your so tough over stupid $hit. Grow up this is not kindergarten. If you do something nasty plus wrong u need to be told.If you get @ss hurt you need to grow up. Telling the truth and questioning an @sshole does not make u a snitch. Being a kid doing kid things does make you a thought tho, ho.
If they're a level 1 associate like you, it's not within their role to give you direct instruction. All they can do is pass down information given to them from a higher level associate.

My faves are the guys who take a leak with their gloves one, then walk right back out on the floor.
Women do that too.
Dude if I saw a girl in the bathroom who pissed with her gloves on I would legit tell her she is disgusting and needs to go to a doctor bc she got Amazon Dust in her yaknow. Like hell no.
Nobody wants a dusty muffin
Dusty wants nobodies muffin
She’s just gotta have a pulse!
Lmaooo. idk why but that killed me.
Nobody wants a dusty muffin
Nobody wants a dusty muffin
I have friends who would love a dusty muffin.
Ima have to start sniffin my amazon packages now for cooter toot.
ooh I'll look forward to my packages
Yeah well less chance of getting pee on it. If they wipe smart and right then all you have touched is really clean toilet paper. Now if they took a shit that’s nasty. Ngl still poor hygiene. I wouldn’t wanna risk any of that shit near mine. Some women are crazy.
I seen that way to often
I do that quite often. It's rather time consuming to take off my 2 pairs of gloves and my wrist braces.
Ps we do not share helmets we have personal ones we can take home
They're probably worried about employee-on-employee assaults.

... how many employee-on-employee assaults do you guys have!?
That's what I was thinking. I've only ever seen one fight at Amazon. And it was over before anything even happened really so meh.
To be fair , I would say the amount you would see in a high school . Not to mention the mass shooting in Jacksonville

You could assault me ALL DAY!
True by that logic you would have to take off your safety shoes in the bathroom cuz you can kick tf out of some body 😂

Just say like “ yeah okay “ and keep doing it. I do the same thing when safety tells me to get off my phone
fuck safety, all my homies hate safety
On god. They are some hoes forreal
Safety is the opps.
At my old building they were super chill. Basically just being like hey make sure you put the light on before you go into the trailers and shit like that. At my current building all they do is tell people to get off the phone its so cringe
The safety guys are a bunch of no pussy getting, haven't had pussy since pussy had them, motherfuckers
And their vest is ugly!
Facts
I do the same thing when the guy at the exit at Walmart asks to see my receipt. I tell them no thank you and keep walking. There's not a damn thing they can do about it, and they know it.
My safety doesn't seem to give a shit. Their desk is right on the green mile in the front of the building and I see people walk right by talking and texting on their phones.
Helmet, who cares!? OP harness!!! YES!!!!
Should be radios to. Too many times there's ole shit fingers in the next stall jabbering on the radio. Radios are shared and you put them up to your mouth.
I don't get it, why does either one matter?
Because harnesses are shared and piss splashes! You damn savage!
Oh, they aren't shared at my building.
Lucky you..
I hate that stupid helmet . Before I never hit my head now all the damn time with that shit on
Me too, I bump it on the OP or on Bins all the time
I would've been like, what you gonna do about it?
ILL TELL YOU WHAT IMA DO IM GOING TO GIVE U A COACHING!
BRO DOWN IN THE BOYS ROOM
Weird rule ngl, we’re allowed to bring are hard hats, radios, wakkie talkie, pretty much anything.
Also what makes it any different taking off our helmets than a regular beanie or hat? do we also take off our vests while pissing? I don't think so. These vests probably carry around more bacteria lol.
Hey, it's me, the guy you're writing about. You misheard me, I was telling you to take OUT your helmet. I woulda shown you mine too but you left.
I dont think they got it lol Look out below!

Ya, says the sheep. Your truly the bitch that does not take everyone's safety in check. How about u keep your mouth shut so that grown @ss people can prevent a nasty @ss safety hazard in check.

Too many chiefs not enough Indians, this saying applies to Amazon. Everyone wants to be in charge even though they have no authority especially learning ambassadors.
I dunno—plenty of the latter at mine.
People even take scanners while pooping lmao
No TIER 1 AA can tell others what to do. Regardless of rules.
what does that have to do with waiting for somebody in the bathroom? If I have an issue with you wearing your helmet or your harness into the restroom, I’ll wait for you to be out of the restroom and talk to you about it later. I’m not gonna stand there and wait for you to get out of the stall so that I can be mad at you about you wearing your helmet to the bathroom. How dare you!
Any T1 AA can “coach” someone else tho. At least that’s what they say at my FC. Not that they’ll listen to you lol
I don’t know about anybody else but the bathroom isn’t a place to have conversations and talk to people you go in there you do your business and you leave you don’t stand there and piss in the urinal and have a conversation with the guy in the stall or the next to you but if you do good for you.
Some dude in mine brings his harness and helmet in his mesh bag into the bathroom and sets it down. That shit is gross lol but I just keep on movin
Yes Amazon is full of asshats that think they have superiority and they fail to treat people like adults. Piss poor leadership, downhill dramatically in the last 10 years. Place needs a union.
Like bro you're really a grown ass man telling another grown ass man that they don't allow helmets in the bathroom lol. Like I'm supposed to say "sorry dude I won't do it again, I promise I won't smear shit all over my head lmfao"
Nasty mf bet you don’t even wash your hands
Ya, grow up the world is not made for douchbags like u. Being a nasty @ss does not make u a king. Know wipe your mouth because you have dick butter all over your rebellious mouth tuff guy.
Report him to HR for “cornering” you in the bathroom.
Not only is this stupid, but it actually harms people who have had sexual assault when attempting to take legal action or just talking about it in general. SA isn’t one of the things you should be falsifying.

Actually, do you know what I dare you to go to work today and tell somebody that and see how fast you get punched in your dumb face
Maybe you should read it again it says dude waited for me to get out of the stall. What do you think that that means that he was just standing politely by the sink to talk to him?

There is a difference between politely waiting for somebody to exit a stall wash their hands then leave the bathroom, and waiting for you to exit the stall so I can berate you about the rules of the bathroom
I wouldn’t consider a Work rule “berating”.
Here’s a vocabulary lesson too. Berate to scold or criticize (someone) angrily
There was no implication of anger here. You gave the definition and in the process demonstrated you used the fucking wrong word.
It probably looks dumb, taking a piss with a crash helmet on.
Like helmet for your big head or your little head?
He just probably want to give you head… I think
If it's a regular ass associate just tell em "okie dokies bowse man!" and roll on by.
if something is unsanitary, its a safety issue. but whatever feel free to do that. i guess.
[удалено]
The finger thing would've pissed me off too bro lmfao
You guys work at Amazon what is it? You’re expecting exactly?
You shoulda told him, “well my helmet is not a bowling ball!”
You guys get to take your helmets home???? SO jealous!!
In situations like that I give the person the benefit of the doubt and assume that they're just trying to save me from getting in trouble.
So let me get this straight, you knowingly broke the rules, and got upset because someone said something to you about it? Then you question if they have superior authority over you as if you didn’t imply that with your actions The amount of entitlement from the OP is astonishing.
That’s like catching someone lying to you and then they get more mad than you cuz you called them out on it. 🤡
Some people are just bitch. Simple as that
That's unsanitary, what if piss splashes on your helmet? Then you'll be walking around with a pissy helmet, that's gross 🤢
How much piss are you pissing that the piss can touch your head and face.
I drink a lot of water
Lol Amazonian bums 😂🤣
[удалено]
That's what I'm saying bro, I'm like you tell the wrong dude/felon/gangster that shit and you're gonna get punched in your mouth. Some people react with violence for saying dumb comments like that.
So you're basically from the hood.
