I've been working at a warehouse for going on 5 years and the work suits me. It's repetetive and fairly easy, if you don't mind physical labor, and where I work you can just put earbuds in and listen to music/podcast/audiobooks all night if you choose and nobody bats an eye as long as you're actively working. They have a goal each employee must reach to retain employment (units per hour), but it's not hard to reach if you keep pace. We get 2 paid breaks, but cannot leave the building once you're inside without permission from a supervisor (this is to prevent theft). There is a fenced in area outside for smokers during break. Warehousing is good if you want a job that pays above minium wage, don't mind bending/stooping/lifting up to 50 lbs, using an RF unit and navigating the menus, zero direct customer interaction, and flexibility. I'm not sure how other warehouses work, but mine offers benefits like paid time off, sick time, and unpaid time off. On days when we have low volume, they offer vto (voluntary time off) where you can take an unpaid day off without penalty. We get our benefits every 6 months, and are responsible for managing our time off (typically 80 hrs of UA and PTO, 60 hrs of sick) via an app. If you go negative, you're termed. I don't reccomend Amazon, as they're super strict and have cameras on you ALL.THE.TIME. If you make a mistake, you can bet a manager will be over with a laptop to show you the video and give a lecture. It really does suck there.

To my fellow neurodivergent peeps and/or introverts, does anyone currently work in a warehouse or do assembly? I’m quitting my current nightmare customer service job to do that instead and wondering if anyone else does warehousing.

Kinda hate that when taking about autism being a disability, some people only focus on the sensory part and ignore every other trait that can be disabling, or minimize those. Autism isn't only about sensory issues and these are not the only thing that make us have difficulties and be disabled.

Communication difficulties, social difficulties, difficulties with emotional regulation, rigid thinking, executive dysfunction, etc, are also traits that can be very disabling, and cause meltdowns and shutdowns, btw.

Not saying that sensory issues are not important, they are but they are not the only thing that make autism a disability.
