Good for him
this man whose ancestors come from Spain (Valladolid) could already invest a little more in the land of Bezos
The best thing you can do is stay away from Amazon. Purchase local both food and consumer goods. Financially support companies that treat employees as the greatest asset and respect customers . The fact is Amazon does neither.
Lex Luthor resigned?
China took Amazon over! Took it from BoZo! Serves him right for making deals with Red China Communist party!
I joke with my friend now that with me emailing bezos 2 weeks ago about needing to change the lengths of shifts, how stressful is it etc that he’s nows stepping down because of it 😂. Anywho, I did get a response back yesterday and have phone call at 9am with one of the people at corporate to talk about working conditions. Hopefully something positive comes of it
Amazon resellers make prices higher than the mall.

Getting ready for the great reset. Take the loot and scoot.
Because he personally made enough money off the pandemic to buy Greenland.
Of course he stepped down, the day prior it was released that Amazon was stealing tips from their workers to pay other workers 🤦â€ÂÂ♂ï¸ÂÂ.
Why is every major CEO stepping down?…

Take the money and run. For President?
If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Doesn't matter. I still refuse to buy anything on Amazon.
Dummy he will still own Amazon. He just the head seat.
Lester,
On this video, your top news story this night …
Of course the corporate media would never bother to inform its viewers that Bezos himself made over $90 billion last year during the pandemic while over 20,000 of Amazon's poorly protected workers caught Covid-19. Your corporate bosses at Comcast — the most hated company in America — also wouldn't dream of allowing you to mention that Bezos was named Profiteer of the Year while, according to the FTC, Amazon, starting in 2016, stole slightly under $62 million (pocket change for Bezos) of the tips earned by its contract delivery drivers and used that tip money to partially subsidize Amazon's base payments to those same contract delivery delivery drivers.
Too bad the vast majority of your viewers wil never watch THIS video …

Amazon will pay nearly $62 million over “outrageous†practice of pocketing driver tips
By Jason Del Rey

The settlement with the Federal Trade Commission comes after Amazon allegedly used tips to subsidize base pay for independent contractors.

Jeff Bezos is a corporate ghoul who acquired his vast wealth — he's now worth around $188 billion — largely as a result of the backbreaking work of tens of thousand of notoriously maltreated workers, the vast majority of whom are so poorly paid that the U.S. government — American taxpayers — subsidizes their wages in the form of providing them Food Stamps, Medicaid and subsidized housing payments.
Ain't capitalism great!!!??? Well, yes, at least for the news readers on corporate news programs such as yours and the uber-rich. For the vast majority of the working and middle classes: not so much.
Typical corporate move to step aside getting all up the financial benefits and step away from any of the corporate responsibilities of his Monopoly.
WISE TO REFOCUS & AFTER COVID-19, WE ALL NEED TO STEP UP TO OUR GREATER PURPOSE
Jeff will now retire to build a bigger palace complex than Putin has! And then order Amazon to stop shipping Putin his orders of Rolex watches.
What a creep, who cares.
Sounds fishy. Maybe he’s trying to avoid potential law suits ?
I just came to see all the salt in the comments. Was not disappointed :).
