I know a few people that like working at Amazon and the pay and benefits are good. Do you know people who died there? Are your friends cursed?

A quick search turns up tons of stories like https://amp.theguardian.com/technology/2019/oct/17/amazon-wa...

We’re not talking about improving the break rooms for corporate SWEs.

How is one anecdotal story with conflicting accounts told in a sensational way so meaningful to you? How did Jeff Bezos and his fugly girlfriend and his billions cause a heart attack? Am I confused or are you?

it is poor argument. you cant see wifi but it exists.

if your friends are fine does not mean that there are no issues there. plenty of news articles were published about inhumane working conditions where people cannot go to toilet even.

What does Bezos being a billionaire have to do with the working conditions in Bangladesh? What are you even talking about?

There are two kinds of commenters in a flame war. First, the people lead by their emotion, who pretend their emotions can be rationalized as factual and logical. Then, the people who are easily baited into telling them they're idiots.

I do this with pure joy. A love of life. I am waiting on an Uber to go dancing with beautiful people. Trolling lost fools rejuvenates my spirit.

You're not doing any of those things and no one here believes or envies you.

Just woke up with a slight hangover. Life is amazing. I will have some coffee and play with my beautiful child. Then I will go surfing. The good life is free from envy and pity. Full of admiration of those who have qualities that lead them to success. Jeff Bezos company was beautiful in the way it sent me gifts I needed for a relative’s graduation. I am grateful that he had the wisdom and courage to start it.

Admiration of others leads us to the good path. Envy and pity are tools of the darkness.

I can't tell whether you're trolling or the embodiment of out of touch.

In touch brother. I hope you can find it one day.
