I Worked at Amazon FBA for a Week- Here's What I Learned

Hey Reader,

After I sold my ecommerce company I did what every logical person would do and got a job as a warehouse picker at a local Amazon FBA warehouse for $13/hour.

Truth be told, I had actually been trying for years to get a tour of an Amazon FBA warehouse out of curiosity and never could. So when I saw an ad in a local newspaper hiring for Amazon I immediately applied in order to get a real behind the scenes look at how an Amazon warehouse is really run.

I only lasted four days and these were probably the hardest four days of my life! However, I learned some incredible things while there including how one my co-workers gamed Amazon and never worked more than 40 minutes a day. 

To see what I learned (and how my coworker tricked Amazon) check out the article What I Learned Working at an Amazon FBA Warehouse for a Week

Happy selling,
Dave Bryant
