Is Amazon FC a good starting job for someone who has never held a job or internship in their life !

It's a perfect job to have while going to college. I started college when I was your age. But a month into it, I chose distractions over my education. Don't be the 19-year-old me, please. Everything will come and go, try not to get distracted from your long-term goal with education.

Now, I'm over twice your age, took this job, and started college this year. I would suggest staying longer than 6 months. Personally, my plan is to stay in this position for at least 4 more years while getting my degree.

You'd want to get a blue badge. I chose full-time over flex for better job security. *Job security is great, as long as you work well. Amazon is going to be around, and you won't have to worry about layoffs, the turnover rate is high enough. But remember, those of us who are here going to college have a different outlook on this job, don't forget that.
*Benefits health/dental/vision are excellent
*Schedule accommodations are great. *Career Choice is something you can look into at 90days full time. Maybe there will be a community college or university in your area, maybe there will be an online college in the program that interests you. But do not let career choice change your goal. There are other means for financing education.

The job itself is monotonous, physically demanding, and tiring. But the three-day weekends, or four-day weekends if you take a day off for school accoms is excellent while maintaining fulltime for benefits.

I usually get into my own world while working. I probably blankly look at people if they cross my path, the job is simple. you can send your mind on vacation while working.

They also offer a lot of time off opportunities if used wisely. I took finals week off during peak using personal time, and still have over 70hours combined upt and to left, with 20more coming in next week.

Don't look at this job as something to pad your resume with, it's just labor. It's a very easy job, that's physically demanding. But, as long as you take care of yourself, your health you should be okay

It's your choice whether you let if be soul-crushing or not. Keeping to yourself and staying from gossip will save your soul.

Just remember your long term goal.
