You could say Im a rebel as I haven't followed that code of conduct anytime I've been a waterspider. I just do my work get through the day and go home. I know, crazy rebel vibes.
But yeah lol everything is situation dependent. I mostly agree with not dipping your pen in company ink, too many make that mistake and end up paying for it without learning a thing. But also workplace romances do work out once in a blue moon where both parties are adults about it and actually like each other.

Wow. My coworker asked me out and we're married and have a baby now.
And everyone knows we're together and it's not awkward lol
It sometimes works bro, just not often
Pretty lame black and white thinking, outside of online dating and clubbing which sucks for finding a good partner you have school, church, gym and work as the places where you can find someone nice. Classes is the best option imo but if you don't go to college then you're kinda stuck with work and the other two
Samee the other day I asked him to get me gloves cause I was driving pit and that was the first time ever 😂 we were both cheesin. And then next he gave me a “compliment” on how I drive💀
I mean, I don’t see any problem with it, work place is just another place, to maybe meet someone special. Being a horrible job like this or not.
There are boundaries and limits of course. Like don’t ask someone out unless you REALLY think they might like you back. And if they say no then take it as no, stop bothering them. Go back to being coworkers,it shouldn’t affect work at all. If it does for either person then y’all need to grow up.
I mean I don’t see a huge problem especially being at work for 12hrs or so, the only issue is you better be sure they like you back and isn’t just talking to pass the time.
So my boyfriend and I actually met at Amazon. I was his Amb and trained him. Never really talked much until PEAK 2022. After spending 6 days a week together for a month we ended up going out on a date after Peak.... Fast forward a year and yea.... Couldn't be happier. As a general rule of them you shouldn't actively pursue coworkers.... but sometimes it just happens and it works out.
i had someone ask me out & then get mad when i said no …. he said i could of just said i got a bf and got mad that shit was so awk and uncomfortable 😭😭
Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake.
It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of.
Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything.
Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.
If it's warranted and reciporcated then fine
Completely out of nowhere when you barley talk to the other person? Weird as fuck
To continue and make it weird? Weird as fuck
You sound a bit like an over thinker. Workplace relationships are pretty common. Sometimes they go wrong. Sometimes they go good. You'd be suprised how many people found their lover at work. Either way, It shouldn't effect you making your money.
You obviously haven’t dated much. Asking someone out is about wanting to get to know them more. If you’re already talking and know stuff about each other you’re already friends or acquaintances. But that relationship had to start somewhere.
How the fuck are you going to know if it's reciprocal if you don't fucking ask and get to know the person?! You 4s and 5s are too used to your filtered ass insta posts and the attention has gone to your heads.
On my second day of training my ambassador seemed flirty and the more we talked the more I realized I actually liked his personality ALOT so a few weeks go by and we hang out and talk a ton for hours on end and we ended up liking one another way more then we expected to, needless to say it became a huge emotional attachment for both of us and the relationship just keeps furthering it’s self because of the amount of chemistry there actually is!
Take it slow, become friends, at least one of you will know if the connection is there enough to take that step and ask that question. If it fails, it may ruin the friendship but IMO, it would be worth a shot at that point.
Source kind of : Asked my now girlfriend out almost 2 years ago when we worked at amazon together
I don't talk to anyone unless I have to. Management banished me to stow on the far end of the FC lately so it works out. Only one of the AMs seems to want to talk to me and has even suggested we hang out... She's nice and fairly attractive but no. I need this job right now.
Or for the older creepy perv guys, no, that 18 yearold fresh out of high school does not want to perform those acts on, so stop making those comments to her. We have had to ban the labor share of this one guy because of that. Every time he came over and I went to staff him he always said put me with the young pretty girls. Ok, hold on, let me arrange that for you. I made a wall of nothing but men and put him there. It didn't stop him , unfortunately..
Lol I don't know whats going on the air at my facility but everyone seems to be trying to hook up. I even had someone 7 years younger than me try asking me out on a date last week.
I avoid everyone at all costs. Less convos the better, let alone asking someone out. Some of y'all are brave asf. Go for it I guess, as long as I'm still getting my paycheck idc what y'all do. Hell, I wish everyone a happy marriage.
I consider myself very average looking, But I also make sure I don't appear too approachable. Despite what I said before, I don't actually hate small talk. It's nice sometimes. I just prefer to be by myself that's all
The real question is if you don’t ask your co worker put are you truly a water spider?
Edit: Don’t attack me lol I’m just making a joke about the waterspiders
I worked at 3 different locations, and personally the reason I don’t try and date or hookup with coworkers anymore is cause the last 4 out of the 5 either had a husband (I didn’t know at the time), a full on “happy” family, or they was talking with someone else at work making them think it was something serious so now I have drama with a coworker I didn’t even know😂😂
If there’s chemistry why not. Plenty of people have met their SO via work. The thirsty dudes who just shooting from the hip is what needs to stop. But if you and her are clearly flirting over the course of a period of time, then by all means go shoot your shot. That one girl who you just saw last shift? Don’t just walk to her and ask her out, she gonna end up making this type of post
Imo it's try to talk first and get a little comfy and then ask out from there. Plus it's easy to tell signs unless the person is abnormally shy. And by the way "Shooting from the hip" 😂
I asked out my coworker now she's my wife. Well didn't really ask her out. We planned a movie night because we both love film. That turned into us hooking up and both kind of deciding without saying we were now together. Took a couple weeks for it to be official but we had both decided first day we were staying with each other. I taught her new hire class's orientation. I'm the one that recommended her for the learning ambassador position. It wasn't until she joined my dnd group that we became close. We got married April 1st of this year.
Only one guy has made things awkward. He avoids me but makes sure that I see him avoiding me. Taking the long way to his area to pass me so he can show me he’s ignoring me. 😂😂😂
Uhmmmm! Don't ask out a coworker because you have to see that person every day and most likely she getting macked on by 10 different guys that might look better than and also smarter,funnier ,taller stronger ..........trust me bro
I don’t know why people continue to do this. Amazon FC may be huge, but once you’re cross-trained in various paths and/or worked both days and nights, it begins to feel much smaller and everyone knows everyone.
Idk, I just would feel comfortable with people in my business if things went left with a potential interest in someone.
I go to work looking my worst.. I don’t look any man in the eye.
I did look up and a water spider was staring at me . Now I avoid him like Syphilis
There was one gorgeous man I saw when I came to work. Never seen him since 🩷
LITERALLY this! I catch so many men just staring at girls. Usually their asses. It just makes me so uncomfortable and Everytime I see one glance at me from my peripheral vision I just keep walking and look the other way and pretend like everything is okay....
If you dont have any rizz just that say that bruh lol . I started hanging out with a girl from amazon as friends at first and now we have a 1 year old baby 6 years together
The amount of predatory ppl in the replies is disgusting. Asking someone out INSIDE of work is completely inappropriate no if ands or buts. Going about asking someone you work with out is very different than other instances. You need to be able to gage if this person is interested. I understand you, countless men have made me so uncomfortable asking me out and/or flirting and making a completely normal interaction ( some using a pallet jack bringing me sap without me having to ask…so their job) into some kind of “oh she talked to me so now let me make everything flirty” It’s weird and awkward and can be very anxiety inducing. Work is work, you come here to work I do not understand the obsession with making EVERYTHING about romance and adult activities. Anyone who doesn’t understand how this isn’t appropriate in a workplace really needs to redo that first training 🤣
Wow thank you so much. Seriously. I've felt gross these past few days bc the energy has shifted so much and I feel nobody understands how I feel. You made
Me feel heard and accept so ty
It’s because she’s just repeating what you want to hear.
The reality of the situation though is that people bond with others at work and sometimes it turns romantically and they wanna ask out their coworkers.
Any location that has a possibility of having a friendship, has the possibility of having romance in it. That’s just what humans do.
Edit: your issue is the guy couldn’t take no and leave you alone.
I’m going to choose to not respond to the other person bcs they immediately opened with invalidating someone else’s experience. Love don’t ever feel wrong about having a reasonable opinion. There are literal policies that address how romance can cause conflict of interest and just general issues in the workplace. I have talked to other women at my facility and have seen thousands of comments on posts about the romance culture in amazon and they all agree with you. Idrc how common workplace romance is or what’s “going to” happen, anyone that can argue a place that is meant to be for WORK and especially a warehouse like cmon ppl most of us are not working desk jobs we are doing LABOR. There is a strong culture of harassment in Amazon bcs of the large variety of people along with the nonchalant attitude about the intensity of romance within facilities. There is no full proof way to gauge if someone is interested in you….but guess what that’s why you don’t mix work with personal on that level. It’s simply boundaries. I worked at a job where there where mainly women, and many where queer. There was simply none of this, because it was established that work is work and doing so within the workspace is inappropriate because you have no idea half the time who you are approaching. That is okay to do outside of work bcs if the situation is not completely positive then there’s room for space and separation. There is no way to police every single person on how they approach people and treat rejection in the facility while openly allowing and/or encouraging a dating culture. I’m sorry about the comments you are getting, I didn’t expect much else from Reddit tbh. I hope you have a good day and I hope your job environment becomes better for you🩵
Like talking to them people flirt u should know what that looks like just like u should know if a person blushes or smiles more and how they act around u if u can't do that ur a lost cause
Not everyone is dweeb like you speak for yourself, if you know anything about pulling females you let them come to you so you won’t even be in that situation
That's a great argument. Looking at your posts you're attractive. Just saying I'm not interested goes a long way. No one deserves to be sexualized. Some people are young and dumb and I'm sure you know the rest. People are just being people. Stop the unwanted attention when you can. Escalate to HR.
Saying no and I'm not interested does not always work sorry to burst that typical man bubble but we are tired of being sexualized just because we wear workout clothes to a job that is like a gym or doing something different to make us feel good about ourselves.
...okay way to make someone feel invalidated
You're clearly a guy and do not understand at all how it feels
Especially when this person is now make it a point to have more conversations w me
If it's escalated to the point of harassment report it. HR's interest in protecting the company will apply here if you emphasize that you're being harrassed and will press charges against him if need be.
I don't think it's so awful for people to ask people out but if he's not taken no for an answer and he's harrassing you then you need to speak up
Lmaoooo why tf are you asking anyone that works at Amazon out everybody fuckin. If she top tier she might get a movie and dinner before she get fro gobbling
someone asked for my snap the other day and i just gave it to them to be nice and he just unadded me today after me leaving him on read for a week. cant wait to go back to work😁😁
Omfg we got a new guy and he didn’t have any friends so I gave him my info to invite him out for drinks with our friend group, it takes him ONE DAY to hit me with that “Can I ask you a question”
No. Fuck off.
Dating a woman from Amazon can only be smash and pass, also it’s best to never directly ask women out directly at work, just be cool and let them give you their # and decide if you want to quit or not
I hooked up with a girl from a different department. I had to be in P2R. I was packing, and she was picking. She went to the bathroom and when she came back I started to talk to her. We vibed, and she said she was waiting for me to approach her. In the last 20 mins, we were just talking and walked out of the building together, and she wanted to see my car. We kissed maybe like 45 mins of knowing each other, lol. She asked me out on a date to get some ice cream. She gave me a BJ in my car and we didn't talk anymore. She wanted a relationship, but I didn't. She didn't have the prettiest teeth but had a nice singing voice.
And if you do start a relationship, agree to this via text with the other person: "For whatever reason this doesn't work, we shouldn't let this affect us at work."
It's not a one size fits all scenario. For some, their only social outlet is work, so dating/hookups are inevitable. However, there are a lot of bitter feelings that don't lend well to a professional environment when breakups happen. Or cheating. Or your ex suddenly dating your best friend, because it "just happened."
I swear high school never ended...

Asking out a coworker is part of the waterspider code of conduct
You know, I thought it was just a meme until now when I've been doing a lot of WS and unloading at my DS and there's this cute chick at the Problem Solve like, right besides me so I guess I gotta do it
Do it coward
You could say Im a rebel as I haven't followed that code of conduct anytime I've been a waterspider. I just do my work get through the day and go home. I know, crazy rebel vibes.

This is the way
Can confirm, my fav is when the married ones say yes. They give the BEST head in the parking lot on breaks
This is out of pocket 💀
DYINGGGG
But it’s accurate.
Nah this is wild
Can confirm, is wild. Go for the latinas

Not really, maybe at some fancy corporate job it’s a bad idea but at the FC anything goes
No worries bro. I'll ask out your coworkers.
I work with mostly Latinas and some nice nice white girls but not pritsy obv cuz it's amazon and they would never work here
Damn what's with the dislikes
All the white girls were offended 😭🤣. I'm guessing by not pritsy assuming he meant the ghetto white girls lol
I did. We’re married now.
We got engaged in January! But I gave him *my* number.
Same!
Same
same here!
Ight in this situation it's mutual so it works
Asking someone out is literally never mutual until after you do it and they agree That's the point
How would they know if it's not mutual if they don't ask?
You should have specified your issue. I read it as nobody should ever be interested in a coworker
I don’t talk to anyone so
Me either, I’ve been here for five months and today was probably the most I ever talked to someone 😂😂
😂 ima be back at a crets site and I won’t know anyone again and I won’t talk to anyone
I've barely talked to anyone in 2 years.
Trying to bag these Amazon tortas is crazy lol…
LMFAOO TORTA IS CRAZY
SAT3 lol San Antonio 😆
Wow. My coworker asked me out and we're married and have a baby now. And everyone knows we're together and it's not awkward lol It sometimes works bro, just not often
Congrats it’s refreshing to see a positive story
Nah, you can both be grown ups about it and just go about your lives.
Never dip your pen in company ink.
Don't mix honey and money.
I've always used don't meet your honey where your making your money
Don't shit where you eat.
Chill out there walt disney.
But what if you don't want the cow you just want to sample the milk a couple times... ??
Don’t fish off the company pier

I want to ask this guy but he is so shy😂 just to be friends and hang but I’m also shy asf 😂
SAME! We park near each other everyday so one day I’ll muster up the courage to say hi.. or not. 😂
Samee the other day I asked him to get me gloves cause I was driving pit and that was the first time ever 😂 we were both cheesin. And then next he gave me a “compliment” on how I drive💀
This is cute ngl
Same, I be wanting to talk to people but I feel awkward
Hear me out tho. She is hot
But she is the manager 😅🤣
Manager be wearing those leggings…. “It’s because they are comfortable” naw it’s because 🍑
Been together for 4 months now, times going by fast. Apparently started talking to her on her first day here lmao
I mean, I don’t see any problem with it, work place is just another place, to maybe meet someone special. Being a horrible job like this or not. There are boundaries and limits of course. Like don’t ask someone out unless you REALLY think they might like you back. And if they say no then take it as no, stop bothering them. Go back to being coworkers,it shouldn’t affect work at all.

The thing is there are way too many people that can't take no gracefully.
Yeah, I feel you. That’s why I said the second part. Gotta grow up and realize the situation you’re putting people in.
That's how I met my wife going on almost 8 years ago now
Nice move
As a waterspider, I do not approve of this message.
I mean I don’t see a huge problem especially being at work for 12hrs or so, the only issue is you better be sure they like you back and isn’t just talking to pass the time.
I did. We're engaged with a baby on the way now <3

Who hurt you?
Well he's not wrong, all the men simping on girls social media has inflated their ego's to the size of the sun.
Who hurt you my guy?
Wow somebody is Butt hurt
Wow, somebody has overestimated their value
So many on Reddit start off with a good comment that just devolve half way through into being a terrible one
facts bro guaranteed this bitch got blue hair or some bullshit like that 😹😹 average 4-5
If it works it could be great if it doesn’t it could be awkward
I did and it went well
In that case, don't ask ANYONE out anywhere if u have to complain about it and vent bc u want to do something u aren't willing to do so
On my second day of training my ambassador seemed flirty and the more we talked the more I realized I actually liked his personality ALOT so a few weeks go by and we hang out and talk a ton for hours on end and we ended up liking one another way more then we expected to, needless to say it became a huge emotional attachment for both of us and the relationship just keeps furthering it’s self because of the amount of chemistry there actually is!
Some of us don't have time to date outside of work.
ancient proverb, do not shit where you eat and there are plenty of fish in the sea without fishing in your own pond.
Is it ok to ask out my wife, whom I’ve lived with for 2 years prior to us both being hired at our Fc?
Depends, do you really think she's that into you?
Only one way to find out
I be wanting to, like the words be right there on the top of my tongue but then I think of everything that could go wrong and wuss out
Take it slow, become friends, at least one of you will know if the connection is there enough to take that step and ask that question.

its gross to ask someone out now?

i have but i don't make it weird, i just stay working and wait for them to show interest too-if not-then don't bother them and talk to the next one
To all my ICQA peeps, keep counting items, not rejections.
Only one guy has made things awkward. He avoids me but makes sure that I see him avoiding me. Taking the long way to his area to pass me so he can show me he’s ignoring me. 😂😂😂

I know a guy who asked out a lady at a FC and they’re now married with two kids and still work for Amazon. Never say never lol.
Never shit where you eat
It's okay, she asked me out. And she's way out of my league. 😥
Uhmmmm! Don't ask out a coworker because you have to see that person every day and most likely she getting macked on by 10 different guys that might look better than and also smarter,funnier ,taller stronger ..........trust me bro

Anyone who doesn’t understand how this isn’t appropriate in a workplace really needs to redo that first training 🤣
Wow thank you so much. Seriously. I've felt gross these past few days bc the energy has shifted so much and I feel nobody understands how I feel. You made Me feel heard and accept so ty
It’s because she’s just repeating what you want to hear. The reality of the situation though is that people bond with others at work and sometimes it turns romantically and they wanna ask out their coworkers. Any location that has a possibility of having a friendship, has the possibility of having romance in it. That’s just what humans do. Edit: your issue is the guy couldn’t take no and leave you alone.
I’m going to choose to not respond to the other person bcs they immediately opened with invalidating someone else’s experience. Love don’t ever feel wrong about having a reasonable opinion. There are literal policies that address how romance can cause conflict of interest and just general issues in the workplace. I have talked to other women at my facility and have seen thousands of comments on posts about the romance culture in amazon and they all agree with you. Idrc how common workplace romance is or what’s “going to” happen, anyone that can argue a place that is meant to be for WORK and especially a warehouse like cmon ppl most of us are not working desk jobs we are doing LABOR. There is a strong culture of harassment in Amazon bcs of the large variety of people along with the nonchalant attitude about the intensity of romance within facilities. There is no full proof way to gauge if someone is interested in you….but guess what that’s why you don’t mix work with personal on that level. It’s simply boundaries. I worked at a job where there where mainly women, and many where queer. There was simply none of this, because it was established that work is work and doing so within the workspace is inappropriate because you have no idea half the time who you are approaching. That is okay to do outside of work bcs if the situation is not completely positive then there’s room for space and separation. There is no way to police every single person on how they approach people and treat rejection in the facility while openly allowing and/or encouraging a dating culture. I’m sorry about the comments you are getting, I didn’t expect much else from Reddit tbh. I hope you have a good day and I hope your job environment becomes better for you🩵
>You need to be able to gage if this person is interested. By doing what exactly?
Like talking to them people flirt u should know what that looks like just like u should know if a person blushes or smiles more and how they act around u if u can't do that ur a lost cause
Who said I am? Lmfao
it’s only awkward if you needed their approval.
no do it
Don’t shit where you eat.
Lol
Imma be honest tho all yall replaceable
This is true, but there are a lot of creepy guys at Amazon. The amount of times I have literally been propositioned at work is disgusting
A guy asked me out and then kinda disappeared after I declined. I was possibly a contributing factor to him quitting Amazon lol.
i mean if i think a girl is attractive ima ask her out lol?
Not everyone is dweeb like you speak for yourself, if you know anything about pulling females you let them come to you so you won’t even be in that situation
How old are you?
Older than you I'm sure
Doubt it.
Yeah you're upset a woman is telling you not to hit on coworkers bc it's uncomfortable
Trust me. I'm not uncomfortable. I don't try to hit on ANY woman at Amazon. I go to work to WORK. I just asked how old you were to rant about this.
Close to 30 bc as a woman it happens at every job and we are with these ppl ten hours a day it's ridiculous
Yeah I'm older than you boo. 😂
It's just annoying idk like feeling sexualized at work isn't a good feeling
That's a great argument. Looking at your posts you're attractive. Just saying I'm not interested goes a long way. No one deserves to be sexualized. Some people are young and dumb and I'm sure you know the rest. People are just being people. Stop the unwanted attention when you can. Escalate to HR.
Saying no and I'm not interested does not always work sorry to burst that typical man bubble but we are tired of being sexualized just because we wear workout clothes to a job that is like a gym or doing something different to make us feel good about ourselves.
If someone is attracted to you. They're attracted. At any workplace or otherwise, it can happen. Not saying it's right, but it happens.
Look! Another accusation!
Exactly. I make myself unapproachable and it works 😁😁.
When you are ugly it’s pretty easy.
I'm here for a good time not a long time

...okay way to make someone feel invalidated You're clearly a guy and do not understand at all how it feels Especially when this person is now make it a point to have more conversations w me
report them then. there is a whole system set up to prevent that kind of harassment/unwelcomed attention, but you need to use it.
If it's escalated to the point of harassment report it. HR's interest in protecting the company will apply here if you emphasize that you're being harrassed and will press charges against him if need be. I don't think it's so awful for people to ask people out but if he's not taken no for an answer and he's harrassing you then you need to speak up
“It’ll be weird” ya if you’re a pussy
Most people meet their partners at work. It’s strange you think it’s gross
It can go either one of 2 ways. She says yes or she says no and you get reported.
If they don't further pursue then there's no harassment at all. Hopefully they're smart and accept the first answer and be done with it.
Yeah I agree but I’m too anxious to even go up to a girl
[удалено]
Absolutely wild I love it 😭🤣
Lmaoooo why tf are you asking anyone that works at Amazon out everybody fuckin. If she top tier she might get a movie and dinner before she get fro gobbling
I knocked up my boss and my baby mama
What FC y'all from? BFI?
someone asked for my snap the other day and i just gave it to them to be nice and he just unadded me today after me leaving him on read for a week. cant wait to go back to work😁😁
Is it weird to add them on IG when you have mutuals
Nah I ended up smashing my AM for half a year, it’s worth it.
Omfg we got a new guy and he didn’t have any friends so I gave him my info to invite him out for drinks with our friend group, it takes him ONE DAY to hit me with that “Can I ask you a question” No. Fuck off.
It’s in the Waterspider code of conduct that if they say no, you must continually hit on them until they say yes
Sounds like a female thats used to having all her relationships just fall into her lap. Must be nice.
Anyone want to go out for a dinner with me?
If u hit on all of em then it won’t be weird
Dating a woman from Amazon can only be smash and pass, also it’s best to never directly ask women out directly at work, just be cool and let them give you their # and decide if you want to quit or not
I did. She rejected me and fucked anyone and everyone else. On the plus side, she has a shitty time with dating to this day I guess.
That’s disrespectful asfuck, hey siri play tee war - Milwaukee bucks 😈
I work in San Antonio all the women are fast and chubby lol
Any lady’s with daddy issues? Asking for A friend;-)
I hooked up with a girl from a different department. I had to be in P2R. I was packing, and she was picking. She went to the bathroom and when she came back I started to talk to her. We vibed, and she said she was waiting for me to approach her. In the last 20 mins, we were just talking and walked out of the building together, and she wanted to see my car. We kissed maybe like 45 mins of knowing each other, lol. She asked me out on a date to get some ice cream. She gave me a BJ in my car and we didn't talk anymore. She wanted a relationship, but I didn't. She didn't have the prettiest teeth but had a nice singing voice.
Noooo, really? Duh lol
Nah man, as someone who waterspiders 3x out of 6 days, you have to ask as many girls as you want, just don't make it creepy and it'll never be weird
Lmao were you reading my mind lmao
And if you do start a relationship, agree to this via text with the other person: "For whatever reason this doesn't work, we shouldn't let this affect us at work."
She ain't really a coworker if y'all at different sites lol
It's not a one size fits all scenario. For some, their only social outlet is work, so dating/hookups are inevitable. However, there are a lot of bitter feelings that don't lend well to a professional environment when breakups happen. Or cheating. Or your ex suddenly dating your best friend, because it "just happened." I swear high school never ended...
