As you may remember, we will be working at Amazon in Coffeyville, Kansas again this fall. Although it was hard to be on your feet for 10 hour shifts, we feel it is worth it for the pay and benefits provided.
Amazon is offering a new referral program this year for the Coffeyville, Kansas facility only. For any name we submit of someone who is interested enough to receive a phone call from Amazon, we will receive a $10 Amazon gift card. If you are hired, we receive another $10 gift card. If you work for 30 days, we receive a $50 bonus. They had the bonus last year, but the gift cards are new.
So, if you are somewhat interested in possibly working for Amazon in Coffeyville, Kansas this year, let us know. We can submit your information to them and they will call you. This is not a commitment on your part, but you do need to be at least interested in speaking to them about it.
They are hiring beginning in mid-August and will continue to have start dates for work campers until the beginning of November. Like I said, we found it a great way to make a decent amount of money in a relatively short period of time. The pay is about $11 an hour with overtime for any hours over 40 per week. They pay for a full hook-up site at a nearby campground. If you stay through the end of your contract, they give you an additional $1 per hour bonus. Between the two of us, we made over $10,000 last year in a 10 week period. That allowed us to take the winter off. That’s our plan again this year :)
If you have any questions, send us a comment or email. We’d be happy to share our experiences with you.
By the way, we did get some rain last night and it is cooler today!
Don’t wish upon a star – Reach for one!
That sounds like something we want to do in about a year. But we are still trying to get the house sold.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear it cooled down some for you. That's a decent chunk of change for 10 weeks. Not sure we're ready to look for opportunities yet. First we want some free time to enjoy getting away from the rat race we're in now :-))
ReplyDeleteLike Kenny and Angela, that is something we want to do next year. :) Hopefully our house sale cooperates with the plan!
ReplyDeleteHmmm? Let me think about working at Amazon for a second. How about working anywhere again? Yikes, what am I thinking - I'm retired and loving it!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for mentioning it, though!
