Amazon trying to cover their ass?

Updated Wednesday, September 4, 2024 5:10 p.m. EST - Amazon reached out to deny the reports of a crack down on singing along with the radio in trucks and provided this PR video clip as evidence. A PR spokesperson told Jalopnik: “This post is completely inaccurate. Amazon has never issued guidance or communications to Delivery Service Partners that prohibits singing in the vehicle.”

Even slaves were allowed to sing.

I had a job where my boss got angry at me for playing music in my office with the door closed, because I was wasting bandwidth. On my ipod. So I used headphones.

Now I want to see a black Amazon driver dressed as a slave, singing "Swing Low Sweet Chariot", and getting chewed out over an in-van loudspeaker.

"Yuhsir! Won't happen again suh!"

Can you imagine the emergency PR meetings?!
