Amazon Camper Force with dogs

Hi all,
Saw another post that prompted me to ask this question. We are considering Amazon this year. Have any of you worked at Amazon with a dog? Did you leave him/her in the RV for 8 to 10 hours or more while working or did you use a kennel. I really wouldn't want to leave my dog alone that long day after day.

    I've had friends work for Amazon and agree w/ the other 2 that you will end up on long shifts...too long to leave your dog alone IMHO. Unless you can find a local dog-walker or switch with other campers to walks each others dogs I wouldn't go through it.

    A friends was working for one of the Amazon contractors, his shifts were 3 twelve hour days a week.
    Why he quit was he was expected to clock out, then go through the daily "did you steal something" screen, which took 15 to 30 minutes (he was working in small electronics pulling). Gave him a door-to-door time of 13 hours. Way longer then he wanted to be away from his dog.

    That is why we didn't last long, it was up to 10 hours the dog was alone.
