January 31, 20179 yr $1.4 Billion and 2700 new jobs. Awesome news for NKY. Amazon plans worldwide cargo hub, 2,7
February 1, 20179 yr @BirdBrain We might need to carpool. ....wouldn't know how to act if I wasn't headed East to a river bottom !
February 1, 20179 yr Kudos to the Governor in this deal. Why? Do you think this doesn't happen regardless of who is governor?
February 1, 20179 yr Why? Do you think this doesn't happen regardless of who is governor? You can't say for sure but it looks like Bevin made this happen. You can speculate Beshear would of made this deal but this will be the largest Economic move by acompany to NKY in history. So Beshear never had a deal like this in his tenure in the region. Up until 2 months ago when Bevin started sitting in meetings it looked like Amazon was heading to Wilmington, OH. Amazon plans worldwide cargo hub, 2,7
February 1, 20179 yr Sounds promising. I haven't heard good things from employees at the Hebron Amazon warehouse. Let's hope these are good paying jobs.
February 1, 20179 yr Sounds promising. I haven't heard good things from employees at the Hebron Amazon warehouse. Let's hope these are good paying jobs. There will be a lot of jobs for undesirable shifts for sure. I'm sure 90% of the jobs will be unskilled labor jobs. Glad to hear they are coming to town though.
February 1, 20179 yr There will be a lot of jobs for undesirable shifts for sure. I'm sure 90% of the jobs will be unskilled labor jobs. Glad to hear they are coming to town though. Yeah about what I expected. It's good and bad at the same town. Amazon is literally going to take over everything.
February 1, 20179 yr Can somebody explain "landing fees" and how this deal will eventually make the ticket pricing structure better for CVG passengers? Will it attract more airlines and passenger traffic?
February 1, 20179 yr Yeah about what I expected. It's good and bad at the same town. Amazon is literally going to take over everything. When they first came back we had them categorized in our "emerging channels" group at work. A couple years ago, someone brought up the point that they have already emerged. They are now in the top 3.
February 1, 20179 yr Sounds promising. I haven't heard good things from employees at the Hebron Amazon warehouse. Let's hope these are good paying jobs. Last night on the news, the channel 19 reporter said they would average between $22 and $26 an hour. I thought that was an extremely high number.
