| Subject: Karma: Parasitic Washington Post employees sign a petition slamming Jeff Bezos' 'shocking pay practices', asking for 'fair wages' and to 'share the wealth' Sat Jun 16, 2018 10:30 pm | |

- More than 400 Washington Post employees signed a petition addressed to owner Jeff Bezos pointing out what they call unfair employment practices
- The petition calls for 'fair wages; fair benefits for retirement, family leave and health care; and a fair amount of job security'
- The petition noted that within the last year, 'the Post has doubled the number of digital subscriptions and increased its online traffic by more than half'
- Now the staff is asking for Bezos to step up and, in addition to creating wealth, to 'share it with the people who helped you create it'
- The message asked readers and viewers to share it, if in agreement, using the hashtags #DearJeffBezos and #OneYearLater
- Bezos, who is also the founder, chairman, and chief executive officer of Amazon, could not immediately be reached for comment on the petition
