FC Associate L1
Amazon
Troutdale, OR
08.2020 - 10.2024
- In my tenure at Amazon I have been trained/cross-trained in Pack, Sort, Water Spider, Pick, Stow, Tote Running, Tote Stacking, Inbound/Outbound Docks, and Running corrugate.
- Pack Entails: Grabbing contents from a wall and packing them in boxes with Dunnage to get the contents to the customer undamaged.
- Sort Entails: Sort is split between 2 areas: Induct and Rebin. Induct is emptying a tote full of items and scanning them into individual bins (1 item per bin) and sending it to Rebin. Rebin is taking those individual items and sorting them into chutes for the packers.
- Water Spider Entails: Filling up carts of boxes and taking those boxes to the packers to make sure the packers have all the boxes they need.
- Pick Entails: Picking individual items from a robot and scanning them and sorting them into totes to be sent to induct.
- Stow: Stowing the items from the trucks into the robots based on where the system tells you NOT to put those items, then the robots get sent to Pick.
- Tote Running/Stacking Entails: Tote running is moving totes from point A to point B based off need, and stacking is prepping those totes for the runners.
- Inbound/Outbound Docks: Staging for forklift operators to load and unload the trucks
- Running Corrugate (In Troutdale): Taking care of recycled cardboard and taking them to the compactor. As well as running pallets for the Water Spiders.
