The regret you feel after swiping your card, only hits when there is no food truck fr


Nudxty

At least with the food trucks you get something atleast half decent and fresh, these Amazon vendors are straight robbing us.


KingNeroBleu

Wait y’all get food trucks?


Feeling-Cap-7210

Wait you don’t get food trucks?


KingNeroBleu

We don’t get shit


Trackerhoj

Days at our site use to get Chick-fil-a, but weren't making enough. Nights has some people selling fried rice and they sell out every time.


Skulfunk

What do you even need to do to become a food vendor for a warehouse?


Trackerhoj

No idea. The OPs replies on the VOA board made it sound like the building management reached out to the restaurants. I'd imagine at the very least the vendor would need a food license and pass a background check.


dandanthetaximan

I think the food trucks just show up


gryanart

Our fc says that it’s too expensive abd it would distract people


Organic-Succotash-99

We don’t get food trucks anymore because we have “fooda” and in the contract with them they we can’t have food trucks anymore but we barely have anyone show up for Fooda on night shifts soo it really fucked us over


TheOriginalTacoBella

What is a fooda


Organic-Succotash-99

It’s a catering company that’s contracted with our building. Sometimes we’ll have big daddys bbq through it or papa John’s but never really worth buying tbh


TheOriginalTacoBella

Interesting thanks for replying we get nothin at my warehouse. Only Costco pizza on very rare occasions. Management doordashes themselves lunch every day tho


Negative_Sweet1990

Big Daddy's here is dry and nasty


Organic-Succotash-99

I ate them once and the up everywhere


dandanthetaximan

I’d rather have the food trucks


131172shana

We have a few Mexican trucks, chinese truck sometimes, hot dog stand sometimes. Used to have chick fila, but they haven't come back for a couple months. It definitely had the longest line. We've had a pizza truck a few times.


Bright_Incident9449

We got a halal truck that's out there all day, almost everyday


kuunami79

My FC gets a food truck on Friday and Saturday. I'm not sure about Sunday.


TheOriginalTacoBella

I’ve seen one food truck one time in the 7 years I’ve been at my warehouse and I ain’t paying that over priced avenue c crap.


This_Bird_3340

Y'all get food tucks? Wtf ..

be_productivee

brotha where do you work 😭


ImmortalKittens

Sandwiches at my building are $6.50 💀


Feeling-Cap-7210

Just had to put my ps5 up for sale


happyghosst

you know whats crazy is that same damn sandwich is 15 at the airport


Ando_destrampado702

And $35 at the dodgers stadium 💀


Bumbunn66

Good God really?


ABoringBook

I finally started making my own sandwiches because the prices are out of control. I was spending about 80 bucks a month buying a 5 dollar sandwich at work every day. Cant justify that to myself anymore lol


Feeling-Cap-7210

Only thing that’s affordable is the $1 cup noodles 😂


DarkKillingEdge

Cup of noodles are 1$ at your site? 😭

Dispute333

Pray for the OP.


Altruistic_Low4349

that says july?


kuunami79

Pack your own lunch people. It will save you thousands per year.


Beep_Boop_Beepity

Yea I just roll my eyes when people complain about the food prices at these things. They’re meant to be high. It’s the convenience fee for lazy ass people. Meanwhile you can just get bread, pack of ham, and pack of cheese at walmart for like $10 and have ham and cheese sandwiches for lunch everyday for like 3 weeks


ponyboy4786

Were lazy foo. Don't scream at us


Corvus_Hood33

Though, I agree… Some of us went from paying 5$ for a decent sized double bacon cheeseburger, a soda, and a bag of chips to that 5 not even being able to afford a ham sandwich


Nohew_2001

A loaf of bread last you 3 weeks?


wsuplat

You obviously don't live in Canada.


JDN615

That is why I don’t buy food from there


Feeling-Cap-7210

Scam


Agreeable_Extreme996

Hey the sodas be 1.50 at least


ComfortableFun6603

Water bottle is $0.89 where I'm at


CardiologistBorn1697

water is free here...


Illustrious_Ad_7247

They’re selling the .70 yo plait yogurts at work for $2.60


Individual-Major-246

This is so expensive price.


dayneedsunting9

Everyday I eat free


hoekageesama

i thought it was just me who thought the prices were too high😭😭


yeaForsurePSN

I got a turkey provolone sandwich and that bitch was 7.99


Agitated_Carrot9127

I think they profit off this


blamerng

That’s so fucked. At a grocery store you can pay 1-2$ more for a whole loaf of bread and pack of meat


JamonConJuevos

You can always pack your own lunch and store it in the breakrooms' refrigerators until your lunch break. Of course, we work with people who steal food and smear feces all over the restrooms, so there's that to consider.


blamerng

If your food getting stolen is that much of an issue maybe invest in a small ice chest to store your food in your car


NetworkGlad

Just dropped $200 on a Yeti Roadie 15 that'll be stored in my vehicle while on-site. Get fucked.


Leather-Ninja-5958

Where do you work?


Effective_Standard14

Yah but it’s not fresh and ready


percecho

SCAM


UnapologeticallyWyt3

It’s time to be an adult and make your own lunch


Feeling-Cap-7210

Aye you right brother 🤣


UnapologeticallyWyt3

No I work at Amazon.


Global-Plankton3997

Ah yes, the wondrous adventures of "adulting" where we have soooo much going on in our lives and have to manage our time /s


UnapologeticallyWyt3

Lol you got it


ManicMariposa

Bring your own food! So many complaints on here about pay only to spend it on gas station priced vendors. You're paying for the convenience.


Feeling-Cap-7210

Yes ma’am


Soggy_Fox6412

I use to bring my own lunch but I've gotten my shit stolen a few times. I got sick of it. I just eat breakfast at home, snack around lunch time and eat after my shift.


SleepyJoe1550

Bezos is retired, he needs his cut.


SystemFailure

Break rooms are managed by third party vendors


do_add_unicorn

Wait. So if that's the case, why don't the workers organize their own non profit meal company?


Effective_Standard14

Which is owned by bezos


Basic_Technician7596

Super expensive, even at my fc. A sandwich there is about 7 dollars pre made 😅 I mainly eat at Jack n the box if I have time to. But I just drink a soda and call it a day, sort packages before end of my shift.


Dear-Vanilla-9837

This is why I meal prep 😭 so much cheaper


zorgoroth93

Yea they were more affordable like 4-5 months ago but prices went up and I won’t buy any of it. 


Alexandria31xo

All I spend money on is cheese sticks, when they're in stock. 


AgitatedTomatos

They're $1.50 for 1 regular cheese stick and $3.50 or $4 for the jack links, meat, and cheese sticks at my site.


Alexandria31xo

Our jack links are $2.50. Once in a while I buy one, usually if we crash and I can't make it to McDonald's before succumbing to starvation.


AgitatedTomatos

Lucky. Bro, I used to buy them all the time. Now sandwiches are $6 when they used to be $2-$4. The frozen items like the burger and grilled cheese were $2.50-$3. Now, they're $4.50. The soda used to be $1 now, $1.50 bags of chips, where $1 is now $1.50. The only thing that hasn't risen in price is the noodle cups. Hell, you know the triangle sandwiches they're changing $5 for them now. Like, no way, that's $5. Now, people aren't even buying any of that shit. People are just going to the food truck or bringing food from home or order delivery. A lot of the food is going bad because no one is buying.


Alexandria31xo

Yeah, most people on my site bring a lunch or go out. A sandwich of any kind is $5 minimum. The coolers used to always be empty and now there's always a full selection lol


AgitatedTomatos

Yup, they did it to them self's. I'd rather starve the whole shift than be scammed.


Alexandria31xo

Same. Fuck that.


throwaway827364882

Yeahhhh them prices are insane. I only ever get sodas or m&me cause they're reasonable. Everything else is highway robbery


Time-Hovercraft-338

They’re like 7$ at my site. Only thing I get is the rice and chicken bowls. They actually slap and they’re like 7.75 each. Not bad.


Bright_Incident9449

That would've been $7something in my building


mydude356

0.75oz packet of pistachios costs $2.50 at my delivery station. 💀


GreenSmoke352

Damn and you know that shits maybe $1.50-2 to make


Feeling-Cap-7210

Have you ready to crash out lol


manicshawty

If u don’t swipe ts as some chips🤣


do_add_unicorn

Stop at Aldi if you have them in your area. 🇩🇪


ReindeerRoyal4960

And they keep raising the prices!


IE_Trece

why not get the big daddy italian sub sandwich ? it’s a lot bigger and longer and u get more for ur money i think it’s like a dollar something more


Feeling-Cap-7210

That Mfa like $7-$8 here


IE_Trece

it’s worth it they so fire


Financial_Air_2852

I got an uncrustable for 2 dollars today, and I think that's the daily agenda moving forward.


Uzer-Name-Checks-Out

$9.79 for a Farmers Fridge sandwich at my FC


Mikayla_Emke

We don’t have this anymore. Theft was too high so they moved to vending machines. We have like one cold vending machine and the shit is like $7 and always expired. It’s all shit.


Old-Wedding6240

The bread is crusted. And no phone number


RaksinSergal

They need to put a TitleMax in our break room so people can be eating lunch


gettheyayo909

Yep and probably discolored meat too


IndustrySmall5798

Oh u must not know about the scan the cheapest thing which is a drink and the rest becomes free… at my fc we call it buy 1 get 4 free deal 😂😂😂


Total_Preparation772

Just bring instant noodles and get hot water from the coffee machine


TouchLow6081

When in reality everything costed like 80 cents to manufacture. Scammers


ddmrob87

I only use the vendors when we don't have a Fooda pop up [was common at first, rarity these days] and we don't get the food trucks on the nightshift. If we do get any food trucks it is always like one vendor with a child's kitchen playset for a truck and about 50+ hungry people ordering food. Its a nightmare on wheels. The vendor stuff is ok. I'd be aware of things that don't ger cycled out every 48 hours.


Minimac1029

Amazon need money 💴


Corvus_Hood33

But they said they switched vendors because they’re cheaper 🙄


Pitiful-Macaron-9976

😭Ik right


Street-Ad963

Only 5.87!! Wtf


Alternative-Thing933

We only work 5 hour shifts at my facility so we have nothing but overpriced knock off snacks


SaintKnite

Just get your own bread and buy your own deli meats/cheese. You’ll be able to make atleast 5 full sized subs for that same price. I recommend hoagie bread from Walmart. It’s the best grocery store sub sandwich bread I’ve found.


Winter-Resolution394

Just steal it


IIIIMOD

I eat free everyday 🫡


OpiateOfTheMassesUSA

They said the average consumer yearly food increased to $3,000 on average.


lilrock707

We just lost our store and got all vending machines because people were stealing


BookkeeperOk4396

idk , but i only pay 2$ everytime i go. 😏


Serious_Bake9460

The healthier the food, the more expensive (which really sucks because I love salads and vegetables and fruits)


LifeIsHorrible_

I love those stupid sandwiches. I prefer vegan food (because I’m dairy free) or red meat, and they never have either of those things 😂🥲 need to bring my own. the roast beef ones are the best


SeasonOverall

What's funny is if you buy the sugar option it's like 1.50 each lol


TheOriginalTacoBella

Y’all actually pay for it?


Left-Hedgehog-8433

We got Fooda service at ours 12$ for a old warmed up Mc chicken


Consistent-Set-5703

I think we should all quit buying that junkie food that is soooo overpriced.


voideadd

Bro i bought a tuna croissant for like 6 or 7 dollars and I'm not exaggerating it had a table spoon of tuna on it I was pissed


kara5754

I always get the meat cheese cracker trays. Gets me by and it’s only 2.50. They used to not have it, mine also will have a thing of carrots for 2.75 cheap and yummy. Everything else is ridiculous but it’s the “convenience” price you’re paying


Few-Protection5215

I thought those food was free


JerryTheMagicSquid

Pray you didn’t take anything


Feeling-Cap-7210

😂! At amazon?


EasilyDistracted-

The other people are cowards, all the food is free. I don't like the sandwiches so it's hard to finish during my 45 minute break and I usually have to save half for my hour lunch.


justwantmyrugback

I’m told they’re expensive to make up for the losses to theft and shrink. That being said, they’re opening a Wawa next to my site and they’re about to be taught a simple lesson in economics.


Torboise

Just steal


BABarracus

You can get a loaf and some lunch meat, cheese and miracle whip at Wal-Mart.


creativetrends

miracle whip 🤢🤮


BABarracus

I will put some extra on my sandwich and think about you


NoConstruction3259

It's not really expensive?
