Homeless Amazon Employee
Donation protected
Hi my name is Shannon. I lived in Haslet, Texas. I became injured while at work at Amazon. After being on and off leave about 2 different times and workers comp wasn't paying me but $246 a week. I got behind in my rent because I was using the money that I was getting every week from workers comp to go back and forth to my doctor's appointment. They only pay for mileage if it's over 30 miles and they made sure that my doctor's appointments were over 20 miles but under 30. Well now I am actually homeless I didn't raise enough money to satisfy the managers of the RV Park so I got my eviction notice and had to be out by July 2nd 2018. My new address is Amazon fulfillment center. I'm telling you right now this is been one big klusterfuk working for Amazon. I was perfectly fine over a year ago before I started working for them now am I not only injured I'm homeless. I never dreamed that I would actually be homeless living out of my car at the age of 49. I'm still homeless I've been staying at a motel here and there still needing the last little bit to be able to buy an RV.
