What I like most about working in supply chain management: the good opportunities at every turn. What I dislike the most: having to make phone calls every single day to make sure things are running smoothly.

Hello fishes,

I recently gave my technical phone screening interview for the role of BA 1 at Amazon it went pretty good was able to answer 90% of the answers but after that I see that my job application shows on their portal shows 'no longer under consideration' although I'm yet to receive any mails from them.

Can anyone tell me what it means have I been rejected or something else.

Thanks everyone

It’s been 3 years since I (27F) moved to Seattle and still don’t have a solid social circle. Not necessarily a big group… I’m talking 3-4 friends who are easy going and not flakey/ hard to make plans with.

Idk if it’s due to Covid, Seattle freeze, a combination of the two or other factors. Any transplants out there who are NOT the outdoorsy type and feel the same? And if so, how did you get past it?

I keep watching Schitt's Creek reruns now and then. It makes me feel warm and mushy, but also super lonely. So tired of being perpetually single. I know it's been posted about here a bunch of times before but it still sucks. Venting and knowing you're not alone, helps a tiny bit. =) Also does anybody else thing Patrick is essentially just a 'too good to be true' fantasy boyfriend Dan Levy dreamed up and put on the show?

Truck drivers! What is the weirdest thing you've seen while out in the road?

The truck I drive for a dairy transportation company broke down in the middle of nowhere and they told me to "wait" for someone to come help me. It's been 6 hours, the products have a limited shelf-life and I am wasting time by standing here.

Didn't know how lonely this job could get sometimes, makes me wonder why I thought driving a truck across the country was a good idea

Amazon has changed people's expectations with their overnight deliveries and yeah, that's convenient and everything but WOW are people getting impatient with shipping speeds!

Looking to get advice on two different job offers. I am only concerned about long term career prospects in choosing one or the other. Offer 1: warehouse manager for a beverage company. Offer 2: material distribution manager for an industrial equipment manufacturer. Again, only want input on future opportunities that each might provide. Thanks!

I understand why so many cities are trying to limit cars and make their neighborhoods more "walkable," but it really complicates deliveries. No parking spot? Then I can't really make a delivery. Has anyone here ever gotten a ticket for not being in a parking spot while making a delivery?

Would you say procurement or supply chain is the better career path for a new grad?

My current title is Buyer. I handle the purchasing of the larger categories of direct materials and train any new Buyers. I also manage outsourcing and quoting of raw materials for new business, among other things.

I am looking at taking over capacity planning for manufacturing, while keeping my previous responsibility.

What could I suggest for a new title/promotion? There isn't an existing position that I would be filling, and I want to show career growth on my resume.

Has anyone successfully formed a union while working with a logistics company? We believe that our rights would be best protected if we just unionized.
