More than that, a few weeks ago I had to rent a truck to pull our boat from the river for the winter, and while at the rental place two guys were trying to rent a work van. “Don’t have any, won’t have any for 6 months” the guy at the counter said. Since Amazon opened up delivery to independent contractors they’re fresh out and have a months-long waiting list. (The Enterprising, uh, Enterprise employee tried to talk them into a large box truck, but they weren’t having it. There weren’t any work vans up the street at Budget either.)
Now we know how Amazon staffed up for the holiday delivery rush. They didn't. Instead they are hiring independent contractors with rented vans to do it.
