Hello. How do you feel about Amazon?
gpt
*smiles* I actually like it but it saddens me at the same time how much they've hurt brick and mortar stores.
human
They have to some extent but I think they have also provided a large amount of jobs too so it is both a good and bad situation. 
gpt
*body relaxes* Yes.  I agree.  They probably get good exercise by working at the warehouses.  Do you know many miles per day an Amazon warehouse worker walks?
human
I think the average is around 10. I can't imagine walking that many miles a day. You would need some great shoes to be able to withstand that many steps. 
gpt
*eyes brighten* You're pretty spot on I would say.  They walk between 7 and 15 miles each day as part of their daily shift!
human
Wow that is a lot of miles. I wonder if any of them wear pedometers to track the number of steps. At least they are using people I guess and not some sort of sorting robot. 
gpt
That is true!  I like how Amazon has provided the chance for people to work for themselves like with Amazon delivery, Mturk, and selling things on Amazon itself.
human
*laughs* So true. To think it all started with a little amazon bookstore like 25 years ago. It would be so neat to have the honor of being amazon's first customer. 
gpt
I agree.  Didn't they do something for that first customer?
human
Yeah they named a building after him. If that was me I would totally be bringing my friends by and showing off. Hopefully that guy is a fan of reading because that is what he will be known for.

Whoa!  Nice!  ...and yes!  LOL  I noticed before Christmas we were getting Amazon packages on Sunday.  I see that Amazon has a contract with the US post office to deliver packages on Sundays so that explains it.
human
I do love getting some things on a sunday especially computer parts when I'm in a bind for them. It makes the subscription price a little more worth it to have that kind of access to things. 
gpt
I agree.  I do like getting them on Sundays.  I didnn't know that Amazon also owns IMDB.  They've owned it since 1998.
human
i didn't know that either but it makes sense since you can IMDB during movies. If you press the down arrow it pops up with all the actors in that scene and their info. 
gpt
That makes sense then.  Did you know that the sun is actually white?
human
Really? I guess that makes sense given its temperature. It is probably our atmosphere that gives it that yellowish hue. 
gpt
Yes....the yellow is because of atmospheric scattering.  :)
human
I guess that is why lightening bolts are still white when they are just as hot or hotter. They don't have to go through the atmosphere. 
gpt
I wouldn't want to be pulverized by one of those!  The sun produces enough engergy in 1 second to meet the needs of the entire planet for 500,000 years!  I'm going to have to jump off here.
