“Amazon and Whole Foods are occupying a unique space during this crisis, providing millions of Americans with groceries and necessary supplies,” the letter says. “We understand that both companies are seeing a significant increase in sales as well, as consumers rely even more on online shopping and buy more groceries as they stay at home. It is incumbent upon Amazon and Whole Foods as businesses and employers not to worsen the emergency by failing to take every possible step to protect their employees and their customers.”
“I never would have thought that I could build a career by doing what I love, and I am extremely grateful for the incredible experiences that I have had,” he said in a statement. “As I look at the next step in my career, achieving bigger goals in the gaming industry with Mixer will allow me to have the perfect balance of opportunities and success. My roots as a gamer started with Halo, so working with Microsoft and coming over to Mixer felt like a natural next step. Capturing all the great moments in gaming and sharing in the wins (and losses) with a positive, community-focused environment that we can all be proud of – that’s why I’m here.”
“Barnes & Noble has made a decision not to stock Amazon published titles in our store showrooms. Our decision is based on Amazon’s continued push for exclusivity with publishers, agents and the authors they represent. These exclusives have prohibited us from offering certain eBooks to our customers. Their actions have undermined the industry as a whole and have prevented millions of customers from having access to content. It’s clear to us that Amazon has proven they would not be a good publishing partner to Barnes & Noble as they continue to pull content off the market for their own self interest. We don’t get many requests for Amazon titles, but If customers wish to buy Amazon titles from us, we will make them available only online at bn.com.”
“In addition, some employees will also make up their minds to change jobs after contemplating such a move during the holiday,” he said.
“If you asked brokers two years ago what they thought was going to happen, everyone was saying ‘oh it’s going to cool off, all these buildings are going to get built, there’s too much space coming online, there’s not enough demand,'” said Allison Fadden, co-founder of Seattle brokerage Suite Partners. “Everybody has been proven wrong. That’s not what happened.”

“For now, my own time and thinking continues to be focused on COVID-19 and how Amazon can help while we’re in the middle of it,” Bezos wrote. “I am extremely grateful to my fellow Amazonians for all the grit and ingenuity they are showing as we move through this. You can count on all of us to look beyond the immediate crisis for insights and lessons and how to apply them going forward.”
“I also love the brick and mortar shikumen-style wall design, and how the tunes of Shanghai Nights (a classic song of old Shanghai) are being played in the background, calling back my childhood memories.”
“Bezos’ and Amazon’s world view on immigration and globalism fit well with Canada — which has recently negotiated important free trade deals with Europe and Asia,” said John Boyd, a consultant specializing in corporate relocation and site selection. “This contrasts with the current ‘America First’ policy under the Trump administration. Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau has emerged as the leading standard bearer for globalism among leading Western nations. Toronto’s Pearson International Airport is world-class and easily links the city with major U.S. and overseas business centers. Toronto’s proximity to New York City and New England would also provide a new center of gravity for the company to recruit talent and innovators that do not wish to live/work in Seattle.”
“I think the central government is aware of the importance of ag-tech innovation. But some governments at local levels are still preoccupied with ‘greenhouse farming’. I think the government needs to push harder for ag-tech innovation,” said Chen.
