They're coming here. This is going to be great for the local economy.
If Panties says it's going to happen...
I alway listen to the part time customer service tech. from a "fulfillment" center when it comes to major economic deals.
KC is due to give away the farm to Amazon but at what cost? What will we learn from Cerner at a cost of 1.63 Billion dollars? [Reply]

We supposedly got a shot at this because we have a spot right on the highway. Where the Rays play now, Tropicana dome. They are going to move to a new site.
Plenty of room for parking and expansion but not far from all the cool stuff mellinals are flocking to from all over the USA. It has the "cool" factor to help Amazon attract the top talent from all over. They will be able to walk from the office to their condos and really cool restaurants and bars and there is a grocery store there too,
They didn't open two fulfillment centers here within weeks of each other for no reason.
It's happening. They fly in people from all around the country to run things at our facility. This place is already the center for a lot of activity, and the fact things are running so well here (#1 fulfillment center in the country) is a good sign. [Reply]
