I was frustrated and upset that an Amazon employee would endanger the health and safety of other Amazonians by repeatedly returning to the premises after having been warned to quarantine himself after exposure to virus Covid-19. I let my emotions draft my words and get the better of me."

The memo is from a daily meeting to update Amazon CEO and founder Jeff Bezos, Vice reported.
