We had a last-second opportunity to interview a very recent former Amazon driver, Haley Marie Brown about her experience driving for the company, how it flies in the face of Amazon's "progressive" public image, and how Alexander's union delivery job compares and contrasts.
We did a lot of commiserating on this one, and the discrepancy between Amazon's statements and Haley's experience was too ridiculous not to expound at length. Instead of trimming this segment down, I decided to leave it intact as its own episode. Hope everyone enjoys.
