Meanwhile, even with nearly 800 employees, "most involved in order fullfillment", Amazon says in SEC filing Friday that it's resources are "under severe stress".

I can not wait to see what the definition of SEVERE STRESS is.. HEHE.. This for lack of better words sucks. Damned if I do damned if I dont.. Still frozen in the headlights watching this thing deteriorate and being afraid to get back in the water... Flip the coin, financial windfall (which equates to getting my mula back), or financial demise.. I do not like these stakes..

Glenn, according to something I read recently, out of Amazon's nearly 800 employees,
"most" are engaged in order fullfillment, i.e. getting the orders in boxes, taping box shut,
addressed, and out the door, etc


Dwight,

This is an area I discussed depth when the 10K came out. Amazon.con placed all payroll for fulfillment in the cost of marketing. They have no costs of operations. Is that deception or what?
