If we were going to compile a list of Worst Places to Work in Oklahoma, Amazon would have to be near the top of the list.
They’re notorious for treating employees like shit by enforcing strict productivity quotas, constantly monitoring workers through scanners and tracking systems, and now – in the twister capital of America – locking them outside during tornadoes.
KFOR’s Spencer Humphrey has the brutal details:
**AMAZON WORKERS DENIED SHELTER DURING TORNADO**
— Spencer Humphrey (@SHumphreyTV) March 12, 2026
Multiple Amazon delivery drivers tell me management at an Oklahoma warehouse locked them and dozens of others out of the building during a tornado warning, capturing the entire thing on camera.

Yikes! That’s pretty wild, but in all fairness to Amazon, those packages aren’t going to deliver by 9pm by themselves. If we let delivery drivers take cover every time they hear tornado sirens, no work would get done around here! Seriously, what’s next? Giving drivers bathroom breaks?
Then again, maybe Amazon was doing the drivers a favor.
