If you've got holiday shopping to do, Amazon just opened a same-day delivery facility in Daytona Beach. Eligible orders can arrive in as little as one hour, and standard same-day orders take about five hours. The site handles fulfillment, sorting and delivery under one roof, which is how it gets orders out so fast.

  • One-hour delivery: $9.99 for Prime members
  • Three-hour delivery: $4.99 for Prime members
  • Check your address: amazon.com/getitfast
  • Apply for jobs: amazon.com/localjobs or text NEWJOB to 31432

The facility brings more than 100 full-time jobs, and starting pay is at least $20 an hour, compared with Florida's $15 minimum wage. Health, vision and dental coverage start on day one.

The opening comes during Amazon's holiday hiring push. The company says it's hiring more than 21,000 seasonal, part-time and full-time employees across Florida, including more than 2,000 in Central Florida. Those figures are separate from the new site's 100-plus roles.

An awful LACK of flags flown today.

“You don't need to have a flag pole. Small flags in yards or lining walkways are easy for just about everyone, but I see almost none. The Greatest Generation would be appalled!
