Delivery contractors say the affects of racism are subtle--and its affecting some of their best and most productive employees.
In interviews, eight current and former Amazon delivery contractors operating in Los Angeles, Seattle, Georgia, Northern California and the Northeast all described the same pattern: lower ratings for drivers of color, especially when deployed to neighborhoods where their race or ethnicity stand out. The contractors' suspicions dovetail with decades of academic research documenting how racial, gender and age bias all influence customer impressions of service workers, from waiters to taxi drivers. Companies have been accused for years of doing too little to prevent bias from affecting customer feedback but are harvesting more of this kind of data all the time.
"To give your customer that much power over the delivery process itself, you're assuming that customer is coming from a good-natured position," said an Amazon contractor in Northern California, who, like other delivery firm owners, requested anonymity to avoid harming his relationship with the company. "That's the flaw."
A spokesperson for Amazon told Bloomberg they were aware of the problem and were "...reviewing all available information, then taking appropriate action based on the facts available to us." They specifically highlighted blacklisting customers who are abusive to drivers or pose a threat, but this kind of racism is far more subtle than that.
When a customer metes out a thumbs-down, a list of checkable options pops up, including such vague choices as "driver did not follow my delivery instructions" and "driver was unprofessional" that don't require any substantiation. But when Amazon aggregates the feedback to calculate scores, the racial divide is undeniable, the business owners say.
This kind of feedback is prone to "implicit bias" from customers who may be more forgiving of minor mistakes from people who look like them and judge those perceived as outsiders more critically, said NiCole Buchanan, a psychology professor at Michigan State University. "It's rarely someone overtly racist trying to do harm," she said. "It's all done very subtly."
The life of an Amazon driver is already extremely tough. Amazon already hires some delivery contractors with abysmal safety records. They are subjected to laughably strict surveillance from a company that told drivers to shut off their safety tracking app in order to meet delivery quotas. They can't even stop driving for violent natural disasters. Amazon is even suspected of taking driver's tips to cover pay roll. That's just sick.
The entire article by Bloomberg is well worth your time, as is all of their reporting on Amazon delivery drivers.

Florrior , Let's get one thing straight first, never gamble with money you can not afford to lose. That being said if you add money to this app thinking you might get at least some play time out of it, I hate to tell you friend your sadly mistaken. Some of the games even tell you in the payout screen that there is. 93% return to the player for that particular game. 7 star rating I would give it a shot. You will find a ton of reviews on here that tell you straight up that once you play a game for the first time the algorithm they use changes and it eats your money. The jackpot games can pay, but only if you sink a ton of money into them first. high quality imitation bagsgucci bags on sale cheap
