Banning Amazon
Recently, I heard that Yamato Transport Co., the biggest delivery service company in Japan, are planning to change their service "less" convenient. The problem is that their delivery staffs are exhausted by overwork due to increase of online shopping transactions.
I feel pity for the workers. Besides, I feel guilty as the culprit of the consequence, who loves arbitrary online shoppings. For the sake of the company's working environment and my finance, I need to reduce my orders at Amazon from now on.

Ah I see. Yeah in America, its just the post office or UPS that drops it off and they come once a day only, every day at the same time. But they just leave things on the steps unless it specifically requires a signature.

Hi Peter. As for Amazon Japan, they don't charge any shipping fees to customers except for an ultra fast shipping option. I assume Amazon and Yamato have their strict contracts about prices so charging more won't happen soon.
Instead of their prices, they plan to modify their "re-delivery" service. At this time, if I miss my delivery as I'm not in home, they send me an alert mail immediately and I can ask them for delivering again within two hours. Of course it's free, too. This has killed the delivery workers most. To make the workers' break time, they will take more time to re-deliver and they won't do at between 12 a.m. and 2 p.m.

How convenient was it before? Why don't they just charge more for shipping fees and hire more workers?
