Kim Macgregor took to TikTok and shared a snap where she's seen showing off her svelte figure and toned abs as she poses against a beach hut in a bikini.

Makes a difference. But Kim defended her hard work and quipped: “Thanks but wouldn’t carry me very far without a healthy lifestyle.” Another branded her “gorgeous” while a further told how they admired Kim for her “dedication and hard work.”

The e-commerce giant is recruiting local businesses in Alabama, Mississippi, and Nebraska as part of a secretive new delivery program.

Amazon’s other logistics end game is to eventually make its delivery network available to non-Amazon businesses, though the timeline of fulfilling that ambition was pushed back by the pandemic. Amazon’s share of package delivery has been growing each and every year since the inception of AMZL, and Amazon’s global consumer CEO Dave Clark said Amazon will likely become the largest delivery company in the country this year. But even years later, the USPS does not support Sunday delivery in every town in America, leaving a hole that these small mom-and-pop establishments are now being asked to fill. In job listings, Amazon hiring managers say the program is expanding in 2022. Enter the small-business shops looking to just make supplemental money as part of the new rural delivery program. In the case of the new delivery initiative, Amazon is only recruiting existing businesses, in part because they already possess liability insurance, one Alabama small business owner who is participating in the program says the company told them. The delivery program marks just the latest example of Amazon offering small businesses an opportunity to earn new revenue by integrating with the tech giant’s growing ecosystem. Amazon is doing this partly out of necessity as online shopping volumes, especially during holiday seasons, outstrip the transportation and delivery capacities of the country’s largest parcel delivery companies. The company has already tried versions of the program in a few international markets, including India since 2015, but the testing in the United States is more recent. But if Amazon’s history with small businesses is predictive of future relationships, some partners will find great success with the program while others will leave disappointed or disenchanted. While delivery drivers in cities and suburbs might be able to deliver two dozen packages per hour or more, the distance between homes in rural and other remote communities means drivers can only handle half that amount or less, making deliveries to these locales more costly. Since at least last summer, Amazon has quietly been recruiting mom-and-pop shops in rural America to join an experimental delivery program.
