Making fun of a person’s job is easily one of the most unappealing personality traits a person can have.

I didn't even know what his job is, I invented it. And I'm pretty sure all boxes at Amazon are stacked by robots, so it's not even a real job.

Amazon is still very much fueled by human labor. "Warehouse Associate" would be the job title. It is definitely a "real job," and the people grinding their joints into dust deserve so much more dignity (and compensation) than Amazon, and society as a whole, really, deigns to give them.
